How/when do you think the world will end?

How do I think the world will end? Well, given all we’ve seen the last couple of years, it should be quite obvious by now. Namely… A butterfly fart. Allow me to explain…

Somewhere in the Middle East, a butterfly will fart near a herd of camels. The smell from that fart will cause the camels to panic and run off in a stampede. The stampede will cause an extreme amount of sand to be kicked up into the air. Meanwhile, an autonomous surveillance drone flying overhead will generate a strong air current that will carry all that sand higher and higher into the atmosphere. (With me so far? Okay…)

So, this huge mass of desert sand gets lifted into the upper jet stream and carried over to the Arctic Circle. Once there, a sudden powerful down-draft dumps all that sand directly onto a Top Secret nuclear power testing facility, where it instantly clogs the cooling tower pumps and short-circuits the Emergency Shut-Down System. Naturally, this causes the Illudium Q-36 reactor core to reach critical mass and start melting through the chamber floor into the earth. With nothing to stop it, the molten glob of nuclear material continues sinking deeper into the earth until it reaches a yet undiscovered super-seismic plutonic continental plate. As expected, this will set off a chain reaction of devastating 17.5 Richter Scale magnitude earthquakes all across the planet. Volcanos erupt spewing tons of ash into the atmosphere as rivers of lava engulf surrounding areas! Landslides take down entire mountains! One thousand feet tall tsunamis wash upon every shoreline! Massive sinkholes swallow entire cities! But WAIT! There’s MORE!..

That molten mass of nuclear material is still burning its way through the Earth’s layers, steadily making its way to the very core. Upon reaching the core, the resulting reaction is nothing short of spectacular. Like setting off a firecracker in the middle of a water balloon, the entire planet explodes in a manner that makes the Death Star explosion look like a dud. And years later, on the planet Mars, a single butterfly wing flutters quietly down through the martian atmosphere and softly touches down on the red dust surface.

Want to save our planet? Find that damn butterfly and kill it NOW, before it has a chance to fart near those camels!
