Tow #9 God unable to Remember what year humanity goes extinct ()

This piece is a commentary on the arbitrary fear of the world ending. There have been many occasions such as 2009, and 2012 specifically in which groups of people have made predictions as to judgement day or the end of the Mayan calendar, but almost all reasons for the Apocalypse are based on some sort of divine intervention. The text states, "Dammit, when are [the humans] supposed to die again?" showing the ridiculousness of the situation. The fact that the all-knowing God has forgotten something is showing the asinine nature of all the people dying. He starts to throw out random dates in an attempt to remember but fails. Then, at the end, God had "Scrapped all former plans and just slated the mass extinction for next week." This arbitrary sentence represents the ethos of other theories of the Apocalypse, Ragnarok, Armageddon, etc. happening in a few years, or even months.
