Seeing a pattern yet?

The evil master plans of the people who really rule the world were going to be put into operation, and we were all gonna die. Engineered plagues, economic meltdown, concentration camps, wars and rumors of wars, stormtroopers in the streets, Nazi flying saucers in the sky.

The Summer of evoL, come to get us with a big, hungry mouth...

And yet here we all are? Did something go wrong, then? Plans go awry? The plague isn't ready to roll out? The stormtroopers are wondering why the purple kool-aid looks a little off? The economic downturn is turning around, however slowly? Too many people made too much noise about the camps, even if they aren't there at all?

The Nazis suddenly realize they DON'T have a working flying saucer after all?

Well, count me bummed out. I mean, if you can't trust the paranoid, doom and gloom naysayers to tell you the world's coming to an end, who CAN you trust? I thought it was all over except for the screaming, darn it.

It's almost as if we got misled.

Who are these peddlers of doom and gloom, anyway? Do they have a chain of restaurants where I can go order the Horror special? Is there a school I can go to that'll teach me to go online and warn people of make-believe dangers that only I can see?
