Are you kidding people who think the world is going to end on Saturday?

It's been raining in New York for the past several days, and the lack of sun coupled with the need to carry an umbrella everywhere always makes me ask when is the rain going to end. Luckily, the world has bat-shit crazy people who are voluntarily answering the question. May 21, 2011, the rain will stop. Not because of a warm front migrating up the east coast. No. Naturally, it's because the wold is going to end Saturday. Are you kidding people who think the world is going to end? Not only are you posting bill boards and hitting up Costco like Arnold hit up his maid to be prepared for the impending doom that you say is about to be upon us, you've taken media attention from other important current issues like moms giving 8-year olds botox. Sure there are people who would want the world to end, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, Osama bin Ladan's 8 wives, and Oprah fans, but the majority of people don't welcome a day without a tomorrow. So please, keep the Rapture, Apocalypse, and the possibility of the Miami Heat winning a championship to yourselves. Because logically, scientifically, the world can't end on Saturday. Why? Because Kung Fu Panda 3 hasn't been announced or released in theaters yet.
