Nothing Ever Rises to Apocalypse

Nothing ever rises to apocalypse. Not even here! On the Organisational Management campus! The world never just bursts spontaneously into flame. The world itself can’t be bothered to end. The universe limps on.

Why can’t the end just come? Why can’t the universe just admit that the game is up? That we’ve turned the last page. Why won’t the universe just click its fingers and destroy itself?
