Forty-Seven Signs of the Apocalypse (#36)

From the Book of Ruth

In the far-off heathen in the Land of Sinim, there shall be a Great Rumour. And it shall cause a Perturbation and Excitement amongst the man-children of Sinim.

Lo! They shall have a perverse desire to beget only the Male Child, and the girl children shall be scorned, and unwanted. And they shall bind the feet of those who are born. Truly, the male children will grow and become men, and they shall be desirous of the females. And they shall cast about and say, “where are all the babes?”

Yeah, the Great Rumour will begin. There will be news from afar, from the Icy Lands, that a mythical city built in the Deep Forest is filled with 25,000 lonely women. And the Great Rumour will tell the men of Sinim that the women have taken one another as was done on the Isle of Lesbos.

And the Great Rumour shall cause an Excitement in the Lands of Sinim; and many shall purchase of the Travel Agent, and learn Swedish, but they shall be disappointed and there will be a Massive Disappointment and a rhythmical fapping sound, and the echoes of many clicks shall Scour the Land of Sinim.
