[K'riq Sa]

Jeez, I only thought we had a few little solvable problems, quickly fixable, very inexpensive, with readily available solutions too the world's eventual cataclysmic end, and then I got the list of shit we face, that will result in our inevitable demise. We're screwed.

^ How can you list both government tyranny *and* anarchy? Wouldn't you have to pick one?

 

[Kibbin]

I don't think they expect them all to happen at once, though that would be some way to go Lol.
In truth I try not to think about such things, so many of thouse are outside our control that we should focus on the stuff we can deal with and get on with our lives.

 

[T'Baio]

I look forward to anarchy/the zombie apocalypse and the time I can walk down the street and cleave your skull in half just because I feel like it.

Ah, the perfect world...

 

[Gertch]

By that list it looks like the dogs and cats living together thing is solved.

 

[sojourner]

Alot of those might not result in "bad" things. One world Government might be a good thing for example. It's all in the execution. So to speak.
Some are merely symptoms of others listed, such as weapon restriction.
New Colonial activity!?!

 

[K'riq Sa]

Yeah, thats when a new KFC variety is introduced...
