DOOM: The 3 a.m. Catastrophist

A text that says "can we talk?" takes a year off your life. You've rehearsed arguments with people who have no idea they're in one, and you still lost a few.

You know about every disaster on earth by 7 a.m. and you've done fuck all about any of them except feel sick, in bed, with the brightness turned down. When something goes well, you assume it just hasn't finished going wrong.

Things a DOOM says

  • What did they mean by "ok."?
  • I just have a feeling.
  • Sorry, I was looking something up.

How to spot one

  • Reads the one-star reviews first.
  • Arrives 40 minutes early and waits in the car.
  • Has drafted a reply, deleted it, and sent "haha".
