Of course the world didn’t end, Marcus Stroman is pitching tomorrow!
Elaboration for non-baseball fans: Rookie Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Marcus Stroman hurt his knee in spring training this year. It was generally expected he wouldn’t be back this year. Instead he came back to the team in September, and went 4-0. No way is the world going to end and stop him from pitching tomorrow.

@6 yeah, go Blue Jays
P.S. Comradde Physioproffe appears to have gone missing, did something happen to the Yankees?

You know, maybe the world did end yesterday and hell just looks like the world before it ended.

Yes, the universe rebooted last night. I say that with all the assurance of my Excel program does when I reboot my desktop.
Leading to the question: If it was a complete reboot with all new records, how would we know it happened? Maybe it did and because our brains were rebooted as well, we can not know about it. Fude fer thought

The world has ended, if by “the world” you mean the playing of polka music for Oktoberfest on Sounds of the Seasons. They’ve finally switched over to their music for THE DEVIL’S HOLIDAY!

Throws a piece of cheese into air…
The mildly deranged penguin arrives at speed via a new penguin-shaped hole in the wall, swallows the still ascending cheese without bothering to catch it first, again fails to apply any brakes, and exits via another new penguin-shaped hole in the opposite wall…
Yep, world’s still here (albeit the walls of the lair are vanishing, not to mention the cheese supply). Basic smokecheese-test passed.

The world ended spiritually.
Thanks for the info, rietpluim #5. Anybody know if the world will end again anytime soon? I’m fresh out of spirits, and need to restock in order to ride out the next apocalypse.

Didn’t you USA folks get 13-16 hours advance warning of the world’s ending anyway? All you had to do was phone up someone in Sydney or Wellington as soon as you woke up, and ask them if they were still alive after midnight at the end of their Wednesday. Then you can get on with the rest of your Wednesday which has only just begun.
Oh, and also don’t forget to apologise for waking them up.

@blf, the penguin-mediated cheese test shows a statistically significant (p < 0.05) resemblance to the cat-mediated bubble test at my house. Thanks for the chuckle.

Sorry about that

Oh man, that was YESTERDAY? Great, now I missed it…

So they made a mistake. It’s no big deal. It’s not the end of the world.

Ah, it was just a miscommunication. God turned the universe off then on again because Trump was malfunctioning.

Didn’t you notice? The world ended spiritually. Again.

Thor’s Day is my day off, so I’m rather glad I didn’t get cheated out of it. Why, that might have made me cranky or something.

World didn’t end on Wednesday
How do you know? Were you there?
Ed Seedhouse says
The world did end and we are now merely living in a perfect simulation of the one that ended. Prove me wrong!
