Feel like a hard reset is well over due :(

Also what would you do? Assume we have a month before impact

Edit: On its way here

Sure we can - it's our hypothetical, we can do whatever we want.

You were the one who posed the situation in the first place, because you felt "like a hard reset is overdue". That's what my comment is in response to.

I'd actually be most scared of the giant bang, and then of getting slammed by a wall of water. If I survived the initial impact, I'd probably find myself getting sad simply due to the magnitude of the change, but I think I'd be able to keep myself from completely melting down. Due to certain (not too serious) things that have happened to me out of the blue, I think I've reconciled myself to the fact that your life can get very bad very quickly for all sorts of reasons.

On a lighter note, I have a number of printed books and non-electronic games, so I wouldn't be going crazy, assuming I had any time to do anything other than survive.

Not much point being scared if there's no way to stop it from happening.

Also, there was a post on Imgur a few days ago about how the internet would react if a meteor was about to end all life on Earth. I'm trying to find it now; it was full of dumb memes.

Odds are they wouldn't say shit, I think if they knew a world ending event was coming they wouldn't say a damn thing they may try to stop it but telling everyone just creates a mass panic and makes the streets chaotic.

The only way it comes out is if some random guy with a telescope spots it and tells the world.

50s would probably be fine if you are a white male.

Plus as I always told my grandad when he would say I wouldn't have been able to handle growing up in the era he did. Yeah I would because I would have been raised in it and wouldn't know better. Can't miss shit you never had

tbh, they probably would keep hushed up while working on a way to save themselves or mitigate the damage.

Depends on your age. And college kids got a pass too. More kids you had you got dropped further down the list as well.

Most of my family volunteered though. So I assume I woulda too cause its probably just how they where raised

They can't cover up a meteor that is heading for earth. Amateur astronomers would find it (probably first) and broadcast the results.
