No reason

Seven o'clock in the morning I wake up and say, "not fucking today world, not fucking today". So I go back to sleep as long as I can, and when I finally awake the world says "now goddamnit, I'm out of patience". So I get up and make a cup of joe, drink the shit out of it and sit down at my desk. I push some buttons, check my emails, post a joke on facebook and think about doing it.

"NOW" says the world, "do it fucking NOW". So I put my key in the machine, turn it, open the box and press the red button. Everything goes boom, just like it's supposed to and there is no more human race except for me.

"World" I say, "was that really neccesary? What was the big rush?".

"No rush really" says the world "I just told Jupiter I did it already and I didn't want to be called a liar".

So now it's just me in a concrete box talking to the planet. I got enough supplies to last a lifetime according to the world, but then a lifetime is subjective, much like sanity.

"World" I try again "Are you telling me I ended everything just so you wouldn't look like a tool to a massive tool?"

"You ended nothing you arrogant little fuck, you just gave me a little cleaning. I couldn't take all those stupid little feet walking over me anymore and now I don't have to, that is all. Jupiter was just a side point. I told you from the get go this is what I wanted, and you said you would do it so bam, it's done and that's that."

"So uh...what now for me? I know we talked about me being king of everything and all, but now there's nothing left it seems kinda hollow. You wanna maybe play xbox or something?"

"For one I don't have hands" said the world irritatedly "and for two, there is no more electricity. Why do you think you're sitting in the dark?"

"For dramatic effect?" I queried, but with no response. I pushed on anyway "So... no power, no people and no outside..for me anyway. This is a pretty bum deal I agreed to hey?

"Well think of this way" said the world "at least you didn't get fired for being insane like you always worried about hey. You got the last laugh on this one buddy, that's for damn sure".

And that I did, that I did.
