The Large Hadron Collider that has everyone up in a tizzy is supposed to be booting up sometime tomorrow, and there could be any range of results, from black holes swallowing the earth, to the sudden introduction of antimatter into our matter environment, suddenly and violently detonating all life on the planet, to a vast range of nonoccurances too terrifying to not unthink aboutnot.
The question is, what are you all going to do about it?

This apocalyptic perspective presupposes that there is no existence outside of this current reality. I think even if the earth is eaten by a black hole, we'll still see each other again in some interstellar or otherwise extradimensional capacity.

I know I say that and then the drinking usually is minimal. I think I want to get full out blasted Saturday. All I want to know is who's with me and who's bringing the Nacho Cheesier Doritos?!
I'll bring the Nacho Cheesier Doritos! And some metal slurpee straws.
Not I, sadly. My parents are in town for the weekend, so I'm booked.
Found a pretty neat site that has some webcams set up at the LHC so you can see it in action.

Nooooooo!!! We're gonna die! Somebody, save the world's biggest ball of yarn before it gets eaten by the black hole!
