Seeing this thread bumped up reminds me that I shirked my duty a couple weeks ago when we here in Charlotte were terrorized by the BRAIN-EATING AMOEBA!!!!

Isn't having a brain amoeba a prerequisite for living in Charlotte?
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

Sweet doom.

http://qz.com/657514/superbugs-could-kill-10-million-people-by-2050-if-a-lot-of-things-dont-change-fast/

Well, to be fair, we are way overdue for a major pandemic.  And 10 million (less than .2% of the world's population) is nothing compared to the deaths associated with the Spanish Flu or the Bubonic Plague.
Have some patience, FFS.

I'll take my chances against the super bug pandemic over the clown apocalypse any day:

We have an old-age pandemic going on right now.   80-90 year olds are dying in unprecedented numbers and nobody is reporting it!    ::)     
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Is that really daily doom?  All 10 million of those people will probably be dead by 2050 any way.  I want my doom now, dammit!

Tough chit.  You will have your doom in small, dreadful quantities that haunt many nights' sleep, and you'll like it.  Except not.

You call it doom, I call it having three kids... tomato, tomahto.

Snakes in the sh1tter

Can't really call that doom when it may be beneficial for some.... e.g. what better way to unstuck a clogged hamster in the piping than a snake?

Well .. it was nice knowing some of you.

I love how the person they use to debunk her claims is the "author of the UFO Investigations Manual".  'Dammit Bob, we don't have time to get at biblical scholar it's already December 7th.  Don't you have that UFO guy on speed dial?'

I'm also thinking 'Everlasting Righteousness' is a pretty solid name for a heavy metal band.

Also, the doom you are living with?  Feel like it's getting harder to make it thru the day? 

It is.
