I Want My Apocalyse God Damnit

I have this fascinated obsession with the end of the world. I just think it'll be so much fun. I like to toy with apocalyptic scenarios, some plausible some not. Of course zombie outbreak being at the forefront. (wait..Is that a grammatically correct sentence? It really doesn't seem like one. Oh well)
I like the idea of world wide social destruction. Civilization wiped out. No more cities, no communication network, very limited technology. Don't get me wrong, I love technology but wiping it out is part of the apocalyptic package. I mean it wouldn't feel like the end of the world if you could still tweet about it. For my scenarios to work, about 90% of mankind needs to die in a very short amount of time. It could be anything really...nuclear war, alien invasion, virus pandemic, natural disaster, mass suicide. I think I would prefer something dramatic like a deadly meteor shower, or the second coming of Christ. Whichever way it happens I just hope it happens in my lifetime. Not right now, maybe in like 20 years. I'll have lived a considerable full life by then, but I'll still be young enough to appreciate it and enjoy the end times. So Jesus if you're reading this (& I know you are) pencil in your second coming for my 40th birthday. It would make a nice present.
