Styropokalypse

In discussing with a coworker about the dangers of styrofoam, particularly styrofoam cups, it occurred to me that styrofoam could be one of the agents of the Apocalypse. I mean, no one said the Apocalypse had to be fast-acting, did they? Did I miss a memo? It could be a slow Apocalypse.

On the other hand, the Apocalypse could be ushered in by all the styrofoam in the world spontaneously bursting into flame all at the same time and offing us with noxious and deadly fumes. That would be Apocalyptic.

That set me to thinking. I have stored up a lot of styrofoam for hobby applications (don't ask unless you really, really want to know). I mean, a lot. So, does this make me one of the horsemen of the Apocalypse? I mean, if all of my suppositions are correct, aren't I one of the main contributors to the Apocalypse?

I think I'm pretty comfortable with that.

  2. I thought you owned a large amount of stock in a styrofoam company? And I'm pretty sure you told me you invented those foam peanuts for shipping.
