At Least I'll Die A Good Citizen

The Christmas season has barely begun and people have already begun talking about New Year's Resolutions. Is no one living in the here and now anymore? (Nope!) Halloween was hardly a holiday this year and Thanksgiving? Ha! Yeah, right. Everyone is so keen on moving foward as quickly as possible. And you know why? To get to 2012. That's right, my friends. Nowadays, people are trying to get to the "end of the world" as quick as possible. This says a lot about the human race, dontcha know? (Dontcha?)
December somethin' 2012 is supposed to be the end of mankind. It'll be hot, it'll be cold, and there will be total chaos. If that is true, then it'd be the end of the world right now! Are you worried about this? Some of my coworkers are, and I'm like You cuckoo brains, that is a bucket of donkey breath! and you know what they say? What the heck are you talkin' bout Autumn?!
You know what else these coworkers of mine tell me? That I'm boring! Sure, I may have a good sense of humor, an acceptional wardrobe, and an extensive vocabulary, but apparently I'm altogether BORING. And I'm like Well some people are quite content being calm, law abiding humans. So there I am, tangled up in my rolly chair typin' away at my keyboard, doing my business work (business work = playing snood and watching old JakeandAmir's) when my friend/coworker/next-office-neighbor, Chloe, comes in for a visit. Here's how the conversation played out.
Chloe - There's a party tonight, you should totally come.
Me - Hm. Awkwardly sitting around while people I don't know/care about drink and act of fools doesn't really sound like a night well spent to me. Thanks anyway.
Chloe - Well you could always join in, I know you're too boring for that, but still.
That's right she called me boring! Just because I don't drink or smoke or "have fun" I'm a boring individual. At that point I rolled my eye's and closed my mouth, too tired and annoyed to even speak or argue. I don't care if those people think I'm boring and not fun. Have fun with puking and overdosing.
What're you thinkin' bout the "end of the world" do you buy it?
Do you believe it's not going to happen?
