Would you?

One of the joys of having a service like Netflix is discovering movies I might have never heard of.  I recently watched a film called "It's a Disaster"; a quirky comedy about a group of friends meeting for a couples brunch, and all the normal indie-comedic dysfunctional hijinks ensue... oh, and they've also just found out there's been a terrorist attack and the world is about to end.  With comedies such as "This is the End", and "Seeking a Friend for the End of the World", I think this might be becoming a new trend in indie comedies.  But I'll save that analysis for another day.

No.  The question that "It's a Disaster" has me pondering now is if there were, say, a terrorist attack releasing a deadly nerve agent into the air, promising a slow and painful death, if you had the opportunity to end your life first, on your own terms, would you?  Or would you hold out hope till the very, diarrhea filled end?
