You're Not Better Than Stegosaurus
Cosmic perspective check! Dinosaurs dominated Earth for 165 million years before a 6-mile-wide space rock said "nope." Meanwhile, humans have existed for ~300,000 years and think we're somehow immune to planetary catastrophe? Stegosaurus survived for 10 million years with a brain the size of a walnut, while we're speedrunning climate change with supercomputers. The universe doesn't care about your Instagram followers or fancy degree—a random asteroid could literally reset the game tomorrow. Existential humility is the ultimate scientific principle!

Betting On The Apocalypse: Humans Leading The Race
Forget asteroids and supervolcanoes! The betting odds are in, and human stupidity is running away with the apocalypse sweepstakes at a whopping 85%! 😂 What's hilarious is that this is actually backed by science! Anthropogenic threats (fancy term for "stuff humans cause") like climate change, nuclear war, and creating AI that decides we're expendable consistently rank higher in existential risk assessments than natural disasters. The irony of someone saying "I love democracy" while the masses vote for their own destruction is just *chef's kiss* perfect. Maybe intelligence isn't our species' evolutionary advantage after all!

The Apocalypse Betting Pool
The odds are in! While natural disasters like earthquakes (5%), meteors (2%), and plagues (8%) might seem threatening, human stupidity is running away with the apocalypse betting pool at a whopping 85%! 😂 This is basically every climate scientist, ecologist, and sociologist looking at their data and thinking "we could totally solve these problems if people just... you know... stopped being ridiculous for five minutes." The irony of loving democracy while acknowledging our collective decision-making might be our downfall is *chef's kiss* perfect!

The Boot Of Our Own Making
The boot of climate catastrophe stomping on humanity's face... forever. This meme hits harder than a category 5 hurricane! We're literally getting stepped on by our own environmental negligence while snoozing through the warnings. The scientific community has been screaming about this for decades while we're down here taking a cozy little nap under the very thing that's crushing us. Talk about an abusive relationship with our own planet!
