On a rocket Ship for 100 years

[Kevdog]

You find out you are about to go on a rocket ship with no brakes for 100 years and it has unlimited food and drink and sleeping facilitys and a virtual reality that you can fu-full any desires :D. What would you take?

For me i would take:

The internet for porn :D

Xbox 360 and a few 1000 good games. (and shitloads of spare batterys)

And a fire extinguisher (you never know)

[Metalhead636]

If my ship had a virtual reality, I would take that.

[sprene]

Well other than safety equipment (ie. fire extinguisher, as you mentioned, or maybe some sort of tools for repairs if you're smart), it sounds like you don't need to bring anything.

The virtual reality machine sort of takes care of it all.

Some human company could be nice though.

[ShockWave]

I'd bring a dictionary to look up 'fu-full'.

[Kevdog]

I'd bring a dictionary to look up 'fu-full'.

Grammar Nazi,

Also i would bring a dog, after all they provide company in a few ways. :hmm:

[hollywood_maggot]

Fuck human company, haven't you seen Red Dwarf? You'd go mad. Nah, virtual reality is all I'd need. Actually, fuck ever leaving it.

[alx-]

and a virtual reality that you can fu-full any desires

If you had a virtual reality, why would you want anything else? Especially internet for porn if the VR fulfill all your needs...

Anyhow, I'd probably bring a comp and some multiplayer games. Yay

[El Zilcho]

I don't think brakes would help you much in space anyway. Also, what if your xbox red ringed? You'd be fucked with a thousand useless discs.

[Arielcz]

Actually I rather have a real companion over virtual reality. I'd feel guilty with virtual reality the same way you feel ashamed after masturbation. But living with just a woman would be pain with all the nagging, I'd take a friend to hang out with and drink and watch sports and shit, he can have a girl too so he doesn't take mine. Apart from that I think I could settle for virtual reality.

[Mazkal]

A few willing females and a hell of a lot of beer and wine. That would be enough for me. Virtual reality has nothing on the real thing.

[Ureshii]

A stasis/suspension chamber to allow me to dream away 100 years as well as some sort of replicator (like the ones of The Void Trilogy) that would allow me to produce anything I happened to need (spare parts for the ship etc).

[Laurence]

The Bible, of course. If I met any aliens along the way I could bring them the Gospel, and I couldn't live without the Lord's word!

[Clerlic]

You guys are forgetting that when you arrive, your "willing females" will be like 120 years old.

[SlothMan]

[SlothMan]

She looks like she's up for it.

[MrChrisso]

I wouldn't mind fu-filling her up if ya know what I mean hahahaha

[Tweek]

DVD player with full DVD collection of a bunch of awesome cartoons, a wii with ssb and ssbb and some gc controllers, and a bong, lighter and a shitload of weed. I take it alcohol is included in the food supplies? Hopefully someone else is coming with me, too.

Some music would be sweet as well but whatever, after a few years I'm sure I'd get over not having any.

[hollywood_maggot]

Ideally you wouldn't realise you're in a virtual reality.

[Cerberus]

Why am I on this rocket ship in the first place? Am I the last surviving human? Am I exploring? Am I escaping from the law? I need to know these details to plan accordingly.

But yea I'd probably take paper and pens etc plus some good books and tv, dvds and xbox.

[Scrotemeal]

If I'm gonna be on it for a hundred years I'm gonna need a fuckload of drugs. Imagine a 90 year long headache.

[BlackHood]

If I'm gonna be on it for a hundred years I'm gonna need a fuckload of drugs. Imagine a 90 year long headache. Welcome to my marriage.

Definitely drugs, and some women. I'm assuming what ever makes me live to 120 and still be useful to a mission would also keep them young and full of vitality?

VR would take care of the rest. Ideally it would be advanced enough to maintain VR for 100 years, so I could essentially live on a fake earth until the voyage is over.

[Allen]

You feel guilty after masturbation? Fucking why? Masturbation is a wonderful thing. I feel great after jerking it, because cumming makes me feel great.

Ya seriously?? Who feels guilty after masturbation? If you feel guilty than stop masturbating, you pussy.

[Tyler_Legrand]

What's the point of the rocket ship, why not just say you'll be in a virtual reality machine for a hundred years?

[BlackHood]

What's the point of the rocket ship, why not just say you'll be in a virtual reality machine for a hundred years?

Presumably he was watching Red Dwarf and didn't remember that their VR machine only had certain games built in. If a VR could only do 20 or so scenarios then it would be a much better thread.

[n3fast]

Hmm. Since it has no brakes, the ship will accelerate quite hard. After a while you'd be going fucking fast. I'm talking about c/4 or higher. Are we talking about 100 years from the viewpoint of the ship, or 100 years from the viewpoint of where it started? Because the latter would result in the trip feeling a lot shorter than 100 years for the person in the rocket.

[Vin]

I would take my ipod and a prostitute.

[Diki]

Is there no limit to what we can bring? That's silly.

I'd bring like 50 bitches.

[Nemmukat]

If the VR machine could do anything without consequences then that.

[SlothMan]

I would take a gun with a single bullet.

[Nemmukat]

SlothMan is your job to e-stalk me and post wherever I have posted in order to cover up my suckiness?

[SlothMan]

Shut up fuckwit.

[Fairy69]

Xbox 360 and a few 1000 good games. (and shitloads of spare batterys)

And a fire extinguisher (you never know)

How many things are you allowed to take?
Virtual reality would fulfill most entertainment requirements, i guess taking your BFF would take care of sharing the experience with someone as awesome as you. Why take a 'partner' unless you gonna kill them and they get 'lost in space'?

[Casalen]

Why wouldn't the ship already come with a fire extinguishing system? Many of them, I'm guessing.

And if there's no limit I'll just take everything.

[bizzle]

I would take my guitar and a few extra sets of strings.

[annarose]

I would take all my CDs.

[CnGy]

Whoever wants to take video games into space is a fucking loser.

I'd take a bunch of instruments and a real person.

[Mustache]

I don't think I would voluntarily go into space.

[BreakTheWalls]

It all depends on how advanced the VR actually is. If it's like people mentioned previously with the Red Dwarf references, then I shall bring my iPod and/or a state of the art laptop. I wonder how long that would take before it got obsolete and the laptop would just collect spacedust.

That and lots of packets of crisps/chips, specifically for this reason.
qnPGDWD_oLE

But if the VR's amazing and I can fu-full my desires on it, then there'd be no point to anything ever again. I don't think I'd even want to get out the rocket should it ever reach its destination for whatever reason.

[Tweek]

Yeah I pretty much ignored the virtual reality bit because if it gives you a virtual reality, whats the point in bringing anything else on board with you?

[CnGy]

Yeah I pretty much ignored the virtual reality bit because if it gives you a virtual reality, whats the point in bringing anything else on board with you?

So you can have a reality to live in.

[Tweek]

But you could just live in the virtual reality and be a lot happier :confused:

[JustForYou]

I'd probably take brakes..
Or whatever ships use to stop?
OR! I could take a rocket ship inside of that ship and leave that ship with the no brakes..
Or maybe women.. lots of them. Yeah we'll go with that all of the above.

[CnGy]

But you could just live in the virtual reality and be a lot happier :confused:

No you wouldn't, your brain runs on electrical currents, hooking up to a superfluous one is NOT healthy. unhealthy = unhappy eventually

[bunglejunny]

All of your mothers.

[Clerlic]

No you wouldn't, your brain runs on electrical currents, hooking up to a superfluous one is NOT healthy. unhealthy = unhappy eventually

Why is it not healthy?

[Mustache]

Because you're not actually moving, right?

[CnGy]

Why is it not healthy?

I told you, excess currents.

[Savaril]

I'd just bring everything that's in my room at the moment and live like I do now.

[Spastic]

Why would you travel for a hundred years in the first place?

[Clerlic]

I told you, excess currents.

Are excess currents a requirement for VR systems?

[jazmania123]

Has no-one considered a life suppport machine? No-one!!
1. My bestest friends
2. A comp with loooaaads of music so I can listen for ages
3. A radio
4. A tv
5. Drugs
6. Extra alcohol
7. A doctor
8. A life support machine
9. Lots of movies
10. Lots of dvds of old tv shows
11. A wii/fit
12. Work-out machines

I think that would do me for 100 years. XD

[MrChrisso]

SHUT THE FUCK UP

[CnGy]

Are excess currents a requirement for VR systems?

Considering a tv and a computer count, I would say yes.

edit: I can see a VR system that uses your REM being less damaging.

But that's not even taking into consideration psychological side-effects.

[Vin]

This whole journey is sounding a lot less appealing with every post. I don't think I wanna go at all now.

[SquidWard]

I'd probably take the ship's instruction manual with me so I could figure out how to turn it around.

[SaraJeffry]

I would take a friend along.. How shit would it be to be alone for 100 years??
xxx

[Hiki]

I would bring a bunch of dildos!

[Diki]

I would bring a bunch of dildos!

Sup doppelganger?

[pika]

I would bring pokemon animal crossing with me

[Casalen]

My girlfriend. A crew, maybe made up at least partly of robots with machine gun arms. Books, entertaining and educational, including philosophical. Movies. Observational and imaging equipment. Musical instruments, including some I don't know. Games- video games, board games, sports games. The internet. The whole thing. Food and a way to store food. Plants and animals to live in a self contained ecosystem on board part of the ship. Water and filtration systems. Weapons, including some nice swords for sparring practice, although VR might allow that depending on the nature of the VR. A good sound system with all music ever. Paint and painting supplies. A large cache of medical supplies. My girlfriend can pick which ones, not really my area. I'm sure there's more, but that's the first portion of everything.

And of course it doesn't have breaks, as was said. It has reverse thrusters, in addition to thrusters on all other sides. The first fifty years might be spent in acceleration, the last fifty in deceleration.

[Hiki]

Sup doppelganger?


Wanna make out?

[Mazkal]

You feel guilty after masturbation? Fucking why? Masturbation is a wonderful thing. I feel great after jerking it, because cumming makes me feel great.
He's probably the offspring of relgious fanatics who have told him he's going to hell for yanking it.

[I_Smell]

One of those giant Toblerones that you get at the airport.

[I_Smell]

Oh and a dirt bike!

[Casalen]

Wait 'till you find out you forgot to bring dirt!!!

[Kevdog]

Id also bring a massive chain and winch the earth behind me :hmm:
That way i would not have to travel far.

In the event of the chain breaking. I would like to think that someone had space coordinates for earth.

That will fu-fill anything i need.

Also
1. A skateboard. so i can teach myself
2. A computer so i can post on this thread on www.explosm.com
3. Maybe a change of clothes...

[BKS]

I would get a reason for being on the fucking spaceship.

[Ted_not_the_bear]

I would take BlackHood, and then just as we are about to launch, run off saying "Shit, I forgot my wallet" and he would be stuck by himself with a Hungry Jack's chip and veloceraptor (If you can survive in space for a hundred years with virtual reality, I'm pretty sure you cn have a dinosaur)

[Clerlic]

Considering a tv and a computer count, I would say yes.

edit: I can see a VR system that uses your REM being less damaging.

But that's not even taking into consideration psychological side-effects.

What's so damaging about severing your central nervous system from all the nervous inputs/outputs and switching them to an artificial source? If the impulses are of exactly the same strength as the impulses the body creates, which they would be for it to work, I don't see anything that would cause "excess currents".

And on psychological side-effects, I think if you'd take small steps it'd be OK. Like instead of imagining an intergalactic vampire war right away, you just play with 3d cubes or surf the internet as if it was just a computer peripheral.
It'd be like in the Matrix, but with you under control.

[BlackHood]

You guys are gonna be pissed when you realise that the VR machine is still being developed, so you're essentially inside a Pokemon for Gameboy style world. Enjoy your 2D reality!

[Ted_not_the_bear]

You guys are gonna be pissed when you realise that the VR machine is still being developed, so you're essentially inside a Pokemon for Gameboy style world. Enjoy your 2D reality!
But you have to admit, Pokemon is pretty fucking awesome. I mean would you rather play pokemon on gameboy, or be the Poke Master?
Not a tough choice

[Laurence]

Then you can be remembered as that guy who went to space and played fucking Pokemon the whole time.

[hollywood_maggot]

I'd be up for it to be honest. Always wished pokemon was real. That shit would be the best 120 years of my life.

[BlackHood]

yeah but who would wanna fuck misty in 2D? VR is only awesome if it realistically represents life.

[Mr. Wink]

Dental floss and toilet roll.

[Dutchinlive]

Megan Fox and a box of contraception pills/a coathanger.

[CnGy]

What's so damaging about severing your central nervous system from all the nervous inputs/outputs and switching them to an artificial source?

Uh. Read that sentence again. And you'll understand.

[BlackHood]

Read the sentence after it and you might be able to hold a conversation:

If the impulses are of exactly the same strength as the impulses the body creates, which they would be for it to work, I don't see anything that would cause "excess currents".

Basically doing it right wont kill you.

[bono]

Alcohol, and lots of it. Then some painkillers for the effects of the alcohol.

[Frobes]

I'd only enjoy the first forty or so years. When my dick stops working, whats the point of virtual reality?

[BlackHood]

I think we're working on the principal that you wont age, otherwise our trip would be to put elderly or dead people on an unknown planet.

[Clerlic]

Uh. Read that sentence again. And you'll understand.

From what I understand, you imagine VR as plugging USB wires into your ears. That apparently has something to do with rapid eye movement phase in sleep.

Sorry, but I really don't understand this.

[Tweek]

The way I understood the concept is that you're plugged in and live happily ever after in your head, completely unaffected by the events of reality.
Hence why I ignored the whole notion altogether, since if we could just do that then why bring anything else onboard?

Unless of course you are needed to navigate and maintain the ship but that would be lame.

[SlothMan]

Virtual Reality is srs bzns guys.

[CnGy]

Ripping out your nervous system and plugging into a computer is not something we could do. At all. Am I to assume that there would be compensation.

How, how would you compensate?

IF the impulses are the same. Holy shit, that's like saying, "if we could speak to god. "

[Cyan]

The best PC ever with wireless internet, so I could catch up with you guys :hmm:

[Clerlic]

Compensate for what, exactly?

[BlackHood]

I'm sorry, you seem to have decided that after inventing youth-giving drugs, an entire biosystem that can live for 100+ years, and deciding to travel billions of Kms to another galaxy we might not be able to induce a state of synthesised reality, even for example if it were just a machine to generate dreams?

Pick a hole in one of the other parts of the ridiculously poor hypothetical scenario!

[Tyler_Legrand]

How are you supposed to breathe in space???

[Cyan]

How are you supposed to breathe in space???

Why would that be neccesary?

[Mustache]

Breathing is a thing of the past.

[Heksen]

If you don't breath, you will die.
:facts:

[BlackHood]

Prove it. Please?

[Cyan]

Actually, I thought he meant it would be neccesary to breath outside the rocket ship for whatver reason.

[Ted_not_the_bear]

If you don't breath, you will die.
Here's a fun fact: You can't kill yourself from holding your breath.
But that's in an oxygen rich enviroment only....

[Blueblobb]

I would take a shotgun and about 1,000 shells with me so that way I can kill everyone who decided to make this trip a reality.

[Witherspork]

Well personally I would bring a companion. Preferably female, and preferably willing to fulfill my sexual desires. You cant beat the real thing.
And if I am not allowed a willing subject, then I will take the unwilling subject and a few thousand Roofies. It's a proven math equation that Unwilling girl+roofies=willing enough.

[Kevdog]

From what I understand, you imagine VR as plugging USB wires into your ears. That apparently has something to do with rapid eye movement phase in sleep.

Sorry, but I really don't understand this.

You don't have to fucken understand it, its virtual reality.

I also want a slab of solo cans and a few liters of Ice-cream.

[Cerberus]

I might also bring some guns and lasers for the ship so I can start some wars and stuff.

[BlackHood]

I would take a shotgun and about 1,000 shells with me so that way I can kill everyone who decided to make this trip a reality.

If you didn't want to go on this mission then why did you sign up for astronaut training?

[Heksen]

He wanted to show his intelligence.

[Ted_not_the_bear]

And markmanship.

[Mazkal]

I'll edit my list of numerous willing females and lots of beer and wine to include these youth maintaining drugs. How awesome. The idea of weaponry is also most awesome. Nothing like blasting up a few aliens to pass the time between shags. What are humans best at after all? Fucking and killing things :D.

[cptlol]

I'll take Niki and Quadros with a load of discussions, enough fun for thousands of years.

[Cyan]

I honestly think Quadros would kill Niki in a matter of days.

[BlackHood]

You forget that Niki is a hardcore Detroitian and Quadros is a tiny child. He may have more fighting spirit but Niki would crush him like just another cockroach in a burned out saxophone.

[CnGy]

Unless of course you are needed to navigate and maintain the ship but that would be lame.

Why go into space in the first place.

[BlackHood]

Just plug yourself into the VR machine and have the Aliens come to you!!

[Tweek]

Why go into space in the first place.
I think the whole thing would be a lot more entertaining if I was Ren or Stimpy.

[J3553rocks]

I'd bring:
Oxygen (Rockets dont just have infinite oxygen)
a skate board with no wheels so I could do flips
A PS3
$100,000,000 worth of games (including older games)
Morrowind (never played it before)
Fallout 3
Oblivion (never played before)
A high-end laptop
Tons of books
a bunch of girls
Lots of cds and music
ipod

They'll get desperate some time or another.

At that point they'll just fuck each other.
