Deep down in the mattress of an insignificant bed a great power is amassing its strength...
Counting its days, an invincible army has been nurtured...
Within hours, thousands will have fallen victim to this force, which aims not at installing democracy or deposing dictators, but fights only for complete and utter BED DOMINATION.
And queue another mindless National Geographic documentary about supposedly terrible insects or other animals. Insects are best, though, because they're not terribly feared and they're all around us, so, for all we know, they could be slowly infiltrating our society until the day of doom approaches and they'll turn us all into mindless ant drones after gnawing through the parts of our brain that allow for freedom of thought.
Yes, the past few weeks I have watched too much tv, and the first thing that leapt to mind was, why on earth is NGC considered a science channel? Most of their programs are rubbish, having either to do with long debunked complots ("The Templars knew the TRUTH! This grey haired man can explain why using a piece of paper and a model of the Titanic built with match sticks."), air crashes ("Not scared of travelling yet? Wait for the next installment of 'Crash, Burn, Horrible Death', up next!"), or aggressive animals ("The squirrel looks like a peaceful animal, but secretly he is building up a massive ammunition base of nuts. Will we as a nation finds these WMDs in time, or will armageddon dawn? Let's blame the UN for not taking action sooner.").
BBC 1 and 2 have higher scientific standards, to be honest, which is quite a feat considering most of their airtime is used broadcasting auction shows, cooking programmes, and ballroom dancing. Ah well.
