Is anybody else scared???

You should be. I pretty sure we are on the verge of world war 3/the apocalypse. Or was that when Israel or Lebanon were fighting? I can’t remember. It seems like every few months the media finds some news event that is legitimately terrifying and then fear mongers us into being so scared that the only thing we can do to prepare ourselves is stay informed. But staying informed makes us more scared! I wish i could say that I was better than all this, that I was able to maintain rationality admist the chaos, but when I see something like this, I get scared. Especially considering I go to school right next to the place that would probably be the number 1 target in tokyo. Well like maybe 3 kilometers away from it, but still effed from a 15 megaton blast, which actually is not that big considering what the US and Russia have. However they aren’t h-bombs, but most likely plutonium making the fallout probably a bigger problem than the actual explosion. So even if I survive the initial blast i will lose my ability to have childern and get 10 kinds of cancer that will all metacystize to my brain. It doesn’t help that  all they show on the news right now is North Korea, made worse by the fact that all I can understand is the scary music. All I know is, if Japan tries pre-emptive attacks (which would violate their constitution, but I think they are looking into ways to get around it) I am getting the eff out of Japan.

    If North Korea bombs Japan, I’m going to personally kick Kim Jong-il’s ass. Welcome to anti-proliferation, Kimmy!

    If only diplomats had as much class and tact as I …

    I love you! Don’t get bombed. (It is very sad that we have both had to say that to each other since we’ve been abroad.)

    Don’t worry buddy! The nuke they did test was most likely a dud, given the obscenely low sesimic reports, and the utter lack of any radiation being detected! Plus, those missles they tested this summer were also duds!

    Horray for awesome Chinese Missle Tech! (Not that I doubt the Chinese defense forces, things just don’t seem to be going so well for the North Koreans using it.)

    Be safe brosef, but I ain’t scared a lick. Know why? ‘Cause I live in Iowa. Ain’t no one bombing this hole. If they do…. wow. Will my face be red!
