the end is nigh

It’s hard to say and accurately explain the way that this story is defining my life. I guess it just seems like every horrible joke I’ve made about the decline of man coming true, but embellished in a way (the snarling) that I would be embarrassed yet strangely excited to. 

The world is a strange and terrible place. That’s not to deny the mundane and wonderful bits of the world. But maybe the ‘end of the world’ that 2012 represents is more of an inner-apocalypse. This year is the time when we recognize the truth of reality.

And that truth includes the fact that people sometimes become naked and rip each other’s faces off with their teeth.
