World Still Here Despite Predictions

D'Starkville, IN - Despite predictions from the Mayans, Nostradamus, Christians, Muslims, Scientologists, and that guy on the corner of Fifth and Broad Street, the world is still here.
Between the dinosaurs rising from the sea and terrorizing the world's major cities, and the thick layer of sulfuric ash blotting out the sun most of the day, life continues to thrive.

Even with the sustained nuclear bombings caused by glitchy missile defense systems, humans are still watching television just like normal. And even though the daily meteor strikes continue unabated, the mail still comes six days every year.
