Look outside, obviously

I'd look at my camera feeds to see what's outside without looking outside

DO NOT LOOK AT THE MOON

Get someone else to look inside. I have seen Indiana Jones.

I'd look, of course. Phenomena that can kill you just by looking at them exist only in horror stories and movies.

Look outside

It’s one of the most annoying movie/TV tropes. “Don’t do this. Bad things will happen!” No explanation of what or why because there’s no time or “you wouldn’t understand.” So, of course, they do it. (And, so would I.)

Immediately kills suspension of disbelief.

To me it is never clear that's it's not a joke unless they explain. I'm just too skeptical to believe them.

Check online, see what's going on.

We have some windows without curtains, blinds or shutters, so die, I guess.

Ask, “why”.

Any message that tells you to do something without any explanation provided is suspect.

idk I'd probably read it like a day after I was supposed to so whatever was happening is probably already over

Immediately look outside.

Sounds like somebody just watched Bird Box (2018)

Or read Daybreak

Take a quick look outside to see if there's actually anything going on, then go back to watever I was doing and keep an eye on the news to see who hacked the emergency alert system. Because no legitimate alert will say something that nonsensical without an explanation.

Check the news, walk near the window and prepare to look outside and feel stupid for checking the news

I'd probably get annoyed my phone was buzzing so much, then turn it off without seeing what's on the screen.

I would use a mirror and hope indirect viewing somehow blunted whatever effect the reason for looking is about. I mean it worked for medusa.

That’s how the famous book Day of the Triffids starts. Spoiler: doesn’t go well.

What's the outside?

Point my phone’s camera outside.

I'd probably Perseus that shit.

If my chud family said not to I would, if a comrade said not to I'd ask what's up

I'd run out there to see (and feel) whatever it is before it has its way with me.

It's my kink so the erection would be uncomfortable but everything else would be tops.

From past experience : I seem to be one of the ones that actually will not look outside.

One lesson I have paid attention to is when people say "learn from my mistakes", and in this hypothetical, I would first think that we're being told to avoid making a mistake someone else has made.

At least until I find out why we're not looking outside, and can evaluate whether I will look. I'll then promptly make whatever the wrong decision is after learning why.

Probably just an automatic reaction; look outside and then checking the internet on what is going on.
