re: As last man on earth, how long can you go before becoming crazy?

How do I know you know nothing about nuke plants?

The problem is you'd have a hell of a time keeping just one small data center powered, operational, and connected by yourself.

You'd spend your entire life thinking there was still someone else alive. So how long until I'm crazy? Instantly. Everyone is dead, but I'll spend every moment thinking someone else is alive.

Define crazy.
If you mean talking to yourself, making up friends, pointless rage smashing shite, etc...
I give myself 15 seconds.

Yeah. I think so....
Of course there are a trillion factors that could throw one into a tailspin of desperation. But life as we know it continuing on sans other folks I'd be good

frick other people. That would be such a relief. I'd miss my friends and family, but seeking out other people? frick that.

Id probably go play Augusta national a few times and then jump from the World Trade Center or something

I'm a reader and I think those other worlds could sustain me for a long time. And as someone mentioned, there's no way that you could really know that you're the very last. For the first couple of decades the dream of the sweet young thing in need of a protector would propel me to keep moving, keep searching.
I think it would be chess that eventually cracked my mind. Playing and analyzing a few thousand games against myself would hone my game tremendously but the lack of an opponent and the inability to test my skill would gnaw at me. There's madness lurking in chess on the best of days.

I said as "last man", I never said "last man with the possibility of young girls here and there". Come on man.

I'd load up a trailer with gas and generators. Hook it up to an RV and travel the country. (Hitting up all the pharmacies on my way.)

Hunting, fishing, reading, building, gathering, tracking, getting fricked up, exploring, cultivating, etc...
I'd be fine. Probably happier than I am now

I'd probably go see what the inside of a girl's bathroom looks like then shoot myself in the head

Well being I am already an introvert...

As long as I have the basic necessities and I'm comfortable then I think I could last for a long time.

I just don't see how you would ever really know. And even if those girls aren't out there it would be a healthy delusion. So long as that dream survives you've got reason to stay fit and trim, to smell nice, to wear a jaunty cap.

Since it would be just me and a bunch of women, I would remain lucid knowing I would be the best poster on td.com

Do I know I'm the last person on earth? Or am I constantly looking over my shoulder for rogue groups who might eat my face? That'd drive me nuts real fast.
