Nein nein nein!
The world is supposed to end today, according to some folks who clearly do not understand that changing up our time-keeping is one of mankind's favorite hobbies.
For instance, September is so named because it was the seventh month of the Roman year. The Romans didn't believe in winter, either--the year started in March and ended in December. That cold, soggy bit in between? Fuck it.
I think they're onto something there.
Still, I have it on good authority that we have a few years left, and by "good authority," I mean a strange woman who spontaneously asked me if I was right with Jesus because we have only five years left and she can prove it in the Bible, and would I take a check?
Nein!
Sorry, people, but if you profess to me a belief that the world will be ending any minute now, then I need to see the cash up front...
