Then we will breed like rabbits and take over the world. Your puny civilisation is no match for us, ready as it is to collapse into our fragrant laps, for we are the breeding phenomenon wot will win out. Bwa-ha-ha!

See lady, there’s more to worry about than you thought and stuff.

I love the wingnuts, they make my life seem so….ummmm….normal, yea that’s it.

*THAT* will be our civilizational collapse. Shit, at this point…..Ron Paul dollars make more sense than the real ones. I’m getting ready to load a barge with canned food, shotgun shells and my Mexican psych collection, to head to a tiny island chain in the western Pacific Ocean (Woleai, here I come!), far enough away that I won’t have to watch the U.S. burn to the ground via self-immolation.

Piknik Caleidoscopica, y’all.

Oddly enough, one of my favourite writers, Sherri S Tepper, had a similar situation occurring in a population not totally un-Mormon-like, in her post-apocalyptic novel The Gate To Women’s Country. Be warned, though: it’s a book that stirs up strong feelings, both positive and negative.

What may be behind the enamoured Nurse Stanek’s Freudian attraction the new Chinese threat – Biological Sperm Bombs – is that they’re going to be swimming in the fucking money you, I, and every other Tom, Dick, and Mary in America will be giving them for the next million years.

Not enough of them. Besides, the guys having trouble finding wives are poor farmers in dirt-poor villages. Women don’t want to live there, and, besides, the men wouldn’t be able to afford them.

Seriously, India has a similar problem, only not quite the same magnitude because it’s a bit smaller and the population policy is not as onerous. Still, in several states, the ration of male/female live births is more like 55/45 now, and it is estimated that 500,000 female fetuses are aborted selectively each year. Although India has banned the practice in law, it still continues because of corruption and the easy availability of ultrasound (pretty much anyone can buy one if they want).

So it is a problem, and not just a Chinese one. However, some experts have posited that his might cause a rise in the status–and value–of women, and perhaps get rid of the dowry system at last.

Policy coupling with technology! That’s why we’re going to be overrun by horny, unmarried asian men ejaculating bullets.

Um, right. That’s very interesting, and thanks for the warning. I’ll just be over here, somewhere not near you.

Because the uterus is like a giant forest, full of hidey holes for those tricksy female foetuses! And once you go in, you might never come out. Hey, perhaps that’s where all those lost Amazon tribes are! And the crew of the Marie Celeste, and Elvis, and…

Nah, for lost tribes, missing seamen and dead musical legends you want to check Hinderocket’s lower intestine.

So if he foresaw it, why didn’t he change the design before he released it? If I knew a design was likely to get fucked up because of something I foresaw but put it out anyway, I’d get fired.

Try silicone implants, sweets.

I must alert Jill Stanek to this new threat.”

No, please don’t bother Jill with this matter – I’ll look into it personally, and will report back as soon as I am able.

So distraught she can’t keep Ben Affleck flat? Where’s Matt T and his amazing rope skillz?
