RE: What would you do if you woke up one day to find you were the last person alive?

In a case of not having to worry about food or health I'd live to purely entertain myself.
It would probably be better to be an American because of more land mass I could cover and easier access to weapons. I'd really just want to drive cars very fast and blow things up with guns and weapons.
That and take lots of drugs, cocaine, heroin, ecstasy. There'd be no women to look good for so bring on the KFC, donuts, pizza and popcorn.
I think insanity would set in at some point though. Loneliness is a weird thing to me, in work after a few night shifts I crave people, then after a week of day shifts and if I deal with a lot of people I crave the night time solitude again. But having experienced both constantly in close succession to one another I really notice how being around other people or being alone affects the body on every level.
The chemicals like adrenaline rushes, testosterone, all of those kinds of things you get around other people. When I'm on my own of a night time it's a different kind of set up, I get adrenaline just because I'm in caveman mode, it's dark, I'm alone and every noise or sighting puts me on edge.
I think partly it would be difficult to predict just how much it would affect you to be lonely to the extent there's not another human on earth, but to make a vague prediction I think I could last a few years blowing shit up and driving fast cars, reading books and watching films. It might all feel a bit pointless and futile after a month or so though. Maybe the mind would refuse to accept there is no one else and wait for aliens to come down or something.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
