Someone call Bruce Willis…

OK, usually most of this crap isn’t worth mentioning, but the fact that the sun has been freaking out the past seven days or so is a little… interesting.

Now I’m not saying the sun is going to blow up or anything, but it is weird that we’re getting all these X class flares lately. Someone ought to put Bruce Willis on speed dial in case we need someone to go up there and fix stuff. I can just imagine the sun dropping two scoops of raisins on us unexpectedly. Now, I fully understand that we haven’t been monitoring the sun for all that long, and this is probably the equivalent of the sun having some bad Mexican food, but I don’t discount the fact that scientists think this is semi-significant. I disagree with the notion that this week will be remembered in History as Solar Flare week, but it’s interesting enough to note.

And for the record, this is probably how I think the human race will be destroyed. By absolutely no fault of our own. One of these days we wake up, and the upper crust of the Earth will have been annihilated by the sun exploding or something.

End of race, not our fault. Reboot Matrix.
