More Breaking News: The Apocalypse Is Near
Some bad news from the West Coast:
Plague, of course, is one of the classic signs of the apocalypse. And here are a few others:
- Fire: Check. At that holy site called the Heritage Foundation, no less.
- Wars: Check.
- Rumors of wars: Check. Thanks, Sy.
- A spree of false Christs and/or Messiahs: Check. That’s what all this “Gospel of Judas” business is all about.
- The birth of the Antichrist: Check. And the TomKitten is named Suri, which means “utterly fucked” in Persian.
Finally, earlier this week, Robin Givhan won a Pulitzer Prize.
Wow. We’re seriously, seriously fucked.
