I take it Randall Munroe is saying the future will be, shall we say, hard.

*Dr. Peter Venkman <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000195/>*: This city is
headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.
*Mayor <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0546868/>*: What do you mean, "biblical"?

*Dr Ray Stantz <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000101/>*: What he means is Old
Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath of God type stuff.
*Dr. Peter Venkman <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000195/>*: Exactly.
*Dr Ray Stantz <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000101/>*: Fire and brimstone
coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!
*Dr. Egon Spengler <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000601/>*: Forty years of
darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes...
*Winston Zeddemore <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001368/>*: The dead rising
from the grave!
*Dr. Peter Venkman <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000195/>*: Human sacrifice,
dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!
*Mayor <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0546868/>*: All right, all right! I get
the point!
