[ WP ] Humanity is doomed . The remaining humans decide to build a permanent monument to the human race as their final act .

`` A new Mt. Rushmore? That's the stupidest idea I've ever heard. Who are we going to put in there?'' 
 
 
 
 `` Nelson Mandela.'' 
 
 
 
 `` Good one. Ghandi too.'' 
 
 
 
 `` Yeah yeah, but see, the Chinese and the Russians will want someone too. Do we really want to see Stalin and Mao up there with the others?'' 
 
 
 
 `` You racist.'' 
 
 
 
 `` OK, I'm sorry, that was a low blow. But seriously... who's going to decide who goes up there?'' 
 
 
 
 `` We vote.'' 
 
 
 
 `` What, a worldwide election?'' 
 
 
 
 `` It's not like there's a lot of us left. It'd be like the federal elections of a country the size of Belgium anno 2024.'' 
 
 
 
 `` Why the fuck does everyone keep comparing everything with Belgium?'' 
 
 
 
 `` What do you have against Belgium?'' 
 
 
 
 `` Nothing, it's just that the fact that shithole got blasted off the face of the earth, along with the Netherlands and parts of Northern France and Cornwall, does n't seem to sadden me as much as the rest of you.'' 
 
 
 
 `` Fuck you, man. I loved Belgium. They had some great chocolate there.'' 
 
 
 
 `` I always had a soft spot for Cornwall, myself.'' 
 
 
 
 `` Fuck you guys. Stop using Belgium as a unit of measurement, it's hacky and sentimental. You're supposed to be survivors. Reminiscing about chocolate is n't going to get you anywhere. `` 
 
 
 
 `` Well, nothing is going to get us anywhere. We're stuck in these reservations, waiting until the aliens get sick of us, or the human race dies out because of infertility.'' 
 
 
 
 `` I do n't understand what you guys are bitching about. Why do n't we just fuck ourselves silly until the end? At least we do n't have to worry about birth control!'' 
 
 
 
 `` Do you really think hedonism is what made the human race great? Fuck no. We're going to show these pricks what we're made of with one final collective effort. I propose we carve a giant middle finger into the Himalaya.'' 
 
 
 
 `` I do n't think they quite understand human body language.'' 
 
 
 
 `` Yeah, I do n't really understand them either. Why did n't they just kill us all, instead of putting the last men standing in these reservations?'' 
 
 
 
 `` I think they could n't deal with the drama. Apparently, other sapient races do n't make such a fuss when they're enslaved and / or exterminated.'' 
 
 
 
 `` Well, if that's the case, maybe we just have to try and keep taunting them. It's not like we've got anything to lose anyway. Middle finger, anyone?'' 
 
 
 
 `` Yeah, seems like an alright idea. I do n't think flipping the bird is a universal human gesture, though.'' 
 
 
 
 `` Fuck. Do you guys know any surviving anthropologists?''
