The whole world takes a week off work and school, dress up in dinosaur costumes, sit around and do nothing since there is no point. Just glue to TV and listen to dry cleaning announcement. You get to make a bunch of dino buddies and pass on the heirloom costumes to next generation.

       Simple. Elegant. Absurd. Pastry.

       There should be special programming on tv to make it more real. Like, the Prime Minister making an announcement of martial law, and appealing for calm. That sort of thing. Although that part is maybe a soupcon baked by Orson Welles' radio version of War of the Worlds.

       But this happening all over the world now.. Lazy asshats do nothing, make no contribution to anything, sit around, consume, and watch meaningless drivel on TV. You've motivated me to hate lazy people more. Fishbone.

       What are they doing, Ma? Praying?
Sure, huny.  Some folk take even drills too seriously.

       Come the end of the world, I feel sorry for those (probably very few) souls listening to dry cleaning announcements. And as it seems you're one of them, I should feel bad for giving you a fish...

       So its not a giant machine to bore through the planet and allow the offending rock to pass straight through?
