Unless Darryl’s (Norman Reedus) new biker TV show does well.

Planet Nine, meet Mars, the Bringer War!

One of my all-time favorites. Always thought it'd be the perfect ring-entry music for boxers.

We're getting a good pre-apocalypse set list going here. I'll add Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor.

“There’s no point in acting surprised about it. All the planning charts and demolition orders have been on display at your local planning department in Alpha Centauri for 50 of your Earth years, so you’ve had plenty of time to lodge any formal complaint and it’s far too late to start making a fuss about it now. … What do you mean you’ve never been to Alpha Centauri? Oh, for heaven’s sake, mankind, it’s only four light years away, you know. I’m sorry, but if you can’t be bothered to take an interest in local affairs, that’s your own lookout.”

I have no problem with asexual
Darryl getting his head bashed in.

But the chicks like him too much.

Sends asteroids and comets into the Earth, eh ? That would be bad if a large enough shower of them hit Antarctica. There is over a mile of ice on that continent and its area is equal to 4% of the area of all the oceans. If something were to scour all the ice off and dump it into the ocean, it wouldn’t even need to melt to raise sea levels. Sea levels would rise 200+ feet overnight, wiping out most coastal cities and all of Florida, etc. Even without the energy transfer and vaporised rock filling the atmosphere we’d be done.

Not hundreds of years from now the way the AGW crowd worries about, but literally overnight.

Boom, boom, out go the lights. Crash and Burn excellent album. Love Travers.

He did something with Glenn Hughes a few years back. Really cool. I’ll post a link when I find it.

Unfortunately, Travers never tours up north.

Does this mean I don’t need to change my underwear for a couple of weeks?

Good times!

Who didn’t play that on their Wurlitzer?

" ...it wouldn’t even need to melt to raise sea levels."

(A-hem...)

Small point ..... Ice displaces more volume than liquid water.

Sea levels are rising because of planetary cooling, not warming. Both polar caps have grown in recent years. That's why the levels are up.

You can prove this for yourself in your own kitchen with a glass filled with ice water.
Mark it's volume at the start and then check it after the ice melts.

Then explain the good news to your Enviro-Whacko friends.

I see only barren field before me.

I think we should just make it a point to be in the wind when it happens.

Hopefully we'll be vaporized quickly and painlessly.

I am wildly impressed that you picked the two songs I was thinking of.
