Its not the end of the world as we know it:)

Please stop with the non stop apocalyptic predicaments please!
It’s absolutely unhealthy for us to put so much energy, and thought into this nonsense.   Everyday there are people dying, and that’s their personal apocalypse; but for the once that remain living there are way more interesting things to think about than death.
I recently came in contact with cable television, and noticed that once respectful somewhat educational channels like Discovery, or History are freakin filled with apocalyptic paranoia.   Their marketing department definitely picked up on this trend and exploited it to infinity.  There are shows that depict how the world will be after humanity will cease, and how is that educational.  Children who are raised by mass media are growing up along side these fears; this is not the middle ages; we do not burn people on a stake, well at least not as a public event. 
I think Robot Chicken did an episode where they had instead of My Little Pony commercial, they created my little Apocalypse Pony:
