How can we secure a solar eclipse induced apocalypse next time? More virgin sacrifices? Less? Virgins are quite abundant these days. We could go either way…

    No no, that’s an apothacary. An apocalypse is the little dash used to create compund words.

      Sorry, but um, actually, that’s a hyphen. An apocalypse is the goddess from Pirates of the Carribean who is in love with Davy Jones.

        (okay I know this is a joke thread and I shouldn’t take any of it seriously but the fact you didn’t pick up on “apostrophy” is bugging the hell out of me)

        Wait… I know you’re referring to Keira Knightly, but wasn’t she in love with his son?

        I was totally wrong earlier, apocalypse is a style of rhythmic Caribbean music from Trinidad and Tobago. Maybe OP was hoping for some soulful apocalyptic music during the eclispe.
