Nothing to worry about, the world has been ending since the moment it started. Just work on improving yourself, in the way you best see fit.

Buy a pound of cocaine, a case of Crown Royal, and hire 3-18 year old prostitutes.

If you live through that don't worry you'll live through anything.
If you don't it's a nice way to go.

Nefarious - despite being scared of your avatar, but tending to agree with much of what you say, I'm to be honest shocked by your response - how you could suggest such a course of action is in my opinion disgraceful. I cannot think how you forgot the Viagra!!!! (with the cocaine it's a similar effect to a pneumatic drill) 8)

I'm not shocked.

Frankly, I'm so God-damned cynical, if a turtle walked up to me wearing a taupe bandanna and shot me in the calf with a saw-offed shotgun while screaming, "viva la reptiliance!" I'd only be mildly shocked.

Not to worry they will appoint a TEOTWAWKI czar next week to solve the problem by throwing money at their political backers and giving grants to activists to overcome it's effects.

SerialWorrier,

No biggie. I've been in shock for some years now, at the state of the world and its' direction. Shock isn't so bad, once you get used to it. DO something that you are convinced will improve your lot. Best answer I've found.

Come to think of it, I could use some help on the old doomstead, if you're interested? Should be very therapeutic, at least for me. :-D You may get something out of it too!

Worry no more about the shock. It will soon give way to an overwhelming feeling of helplessness, followed by inexplicable depression, ending with a general numbness although some doomers report a tingling sensation when watching Oily Casandra on Youtube.

Come on, people, be practical -- if we're all sufficiently shocked, all we have to do is figure out how to power our homes with it! :lol:

I have a better idea for the OP. Take up a useless hobby to keep your mind off of things. Something like this perhaps (which, incidentally, puts your avatar to shame Auntie):

Never said to try and do it all in one night.Hence the case of Crown, no point in drinking alcohol if you have powder. Instead use it as a mix of partying over a several week period.
Take your time and enjoy it.

A young Bull and an old bull were sitting on a hill.
Young bull says to the old bull "Let's run down there to that heard of cows and screw us one"
Old bull says " Why don't we walk down there and screw them all"
