O.K. so there appears to be some more Idiocracy-based garbage that needs to be put to bed.
Killer planet Nibiru – it ain’t there people, sorry but your quick life cop-out isn’t just around the corner – not with non-existent Nibiru anyway.
However – if you are dead keen (pun intended) on killer scenarios, how about dealing with some straight facts rather than pure fiction.
Remember that massive Russian meteor/meteorite that came crashing in unannounced around a year or so ago? That would have ruined your day if it had arrived more intact in your location. And around a year or so before that we got a near Earth asteroid the size of an Olympic swimming pool (to put it on scale that the Idiocracy can appreciate) that shot past us at a distance that put it inside the orbit of some Earth-orbiting satellites – so that was REALLY close – and I got a picture of that one too 🙂 And again if that had come down near you, you would have noticed it.
And do you have any idea why you are actually still here to read this stuff I’m writing, at all? No of course you don’t. You can actually thank a Russian submarine commander who disobeyed orders and didn’t set his nukes off as he suspected the order was a false alarm. Thank you my man for engaging your brain and not ending our world in such a pointless fashion.
Then of course we have the possibility of a nearby (in galactic terms) Gamma Ray Burst that would instantaneously sterilise everything for cubic light years around – no life whatsoever remaining – except perhaps for the odd Deinococcus radiodurans or two.
So why get yourself all upset and agitated about the fictions of an over active imagination (nutter if you prefer) – when there’s so much more really mundane stuff out there ready, willing and waiting to snuff you out, before you even saw it. And let’s go back to our Russian mate just for a moment and remember – it is pure good luck, and an unexpected act of bravery from a virtually unknown man – that you’re still around today.
