So…. Did anybody else wake up to their phone set to “SOS Mode” only? And did anyone else watch an apocalyptic movie last night? Welp… All I have to say is, “BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!” We keep descending more and more into a dark dystopian post-apocalyptic movie. What's next, The Terminator?!
