That must be the best suggestion I´ve seen so far. If you´re lucky, ET will come back to kill us.

Cat Burglar: Btw, where do that quote come from?

Hell, they're aliens. For all we know they might consider it a compliment. Or a type of food.

Sky, I believe they were refering to the phrase "The girly-beings in your miserable solar system could never destroy a planet as cool as this one..." Obviously, they would have to have genders to be offended by it.

Why would the aliens need to have genders in order to be pissed off at us?

Hmm, and the example taunt is hardly the best one. It assumes that the offending Alien have genders.

"Ripped apart by Jupiter

You will need: Earthmoving equipment.

Method: Hurl the Earth into Jupiter, where it will be torn apart by tidal forces.

Moving the Earth out to Jupiter is much the same as moving the Earth in towards the Sun, the most obvious difference being your choice of vectors. However, there is another important consideration, and that is energy. It takes energy to raise or lower an object through a gravity field; it would take energy to propel the Earth into the Sun and it would take energy to propel it into Jupiter. When you do the calculations, Jupiter is actually rather preferable; it takes about 38% less energy.

Earth's final resting place: lumps of heavy elements, torn apart, sinking into the massive cloud layers of Jupiter, never to be seen again.

Feasibility rating: 9/10. As before, impossible at our current technological level, but will be possible one day, and in the meantime, may happen by freak accident if something comes out of nowhere and randomly knocks Earth in precisely the right direction."

Sorry if this got kinda huge but I thought this one was quite interesting. But I´m really scared because of that feasibility rating.

But if Earth is destroyed, Captain Planet has to worry about where to LIVE.

Captain Planet, if anything, should be HAPPY if the earth gets destroyed. He wouldn't have to worry about people polluting it anymore, at least!

(Amusing site.)

All this talk about destroying the earth and such, nobody realizes that this guy will stop you.

You are my hero for reminding me of him. Seriously, you just answered one of my life questions.

Interesting.....


I might want to try this to a certain extent.... just to say I could do this. I won't destroy it in its entirety though. It's the only planet with my friends on it. Probably might take millions of people to do this though.

Rocket-powered Neptune. Some of these are pretty funny.

Well, you destroy a planet because you're too lazy to bother conquering it, ala Master of Orion II's Stellar Converter. It takes less game time to destroy a planet than conquer it, not to mention the fact that conquering it requires expendable resources in the form of people. Far more cost-effective to shoot a single shot of SC at it, since the SC has unlimited ammo.

It was great to research physics in that game until you could fit ten SCs on a single ship, then cry because it could only actually kill three enemy ships per round due to the insane amount of hitpoints you can have if you're really defense-oriented. Battles between fleets of several hundred often went to whoever went first.

But beyond even that is the satisfaction of trying hundreds of times to defeat an invading fleet of 50 or so with maybe ten of your own. Those were good days.

Well, I suppose if you're going to build a hyperspace bypass through an area, it's probably necessary to do that.

The geocide in fiction section is particularly amusing. But really, isn't annihilating all life enough? Isn't actually destroying the entire planet a bit overkill for even the most evil beings?

Actually, that one is listed in a different section in the "Geocide" section, Geocide in fiction.

What's really scary is that someone actually wasted what could have been two productive days of their life writing that. Imagine what could be achieved if he/she put as much energy into figuring out how world peace and unity could be created. Hoo boy, and I thought that when I put hands to keyboard that I created some real doozies...

Of course, for all the thought he put into how Earth could possibly be destroyed, he forgot one method...

Destruction by Marvin The Martian

Marvin The Martian, orbiting planet Mars aboard a space station made of nothing but glass-enclosed catwalks, runs over to a gumball machine and dolls himself out a few Instant Martian seeds, to which he just adds water. He then convinces the resulting ostrich-like abominations to secure his Acme Brand Super Exposive P38 Space Modulator from the clutches of that "wascal wabbit". I think you know what happens next.

Probability: Depends on your current level of detachment from reality...

I watch way too many cartoons....

I got to about more than half way of the page, and I realized something...

I wasted like five minutes of my life reading such page.

Interesting. I was not disturbed one bit. Not at all.
