EXPERTS WARN OF THREAT FROM 100GB BUG
Firebringer News Service (FBNS) - Experts warned today of a new and deadly
threat to our beleaguered civilization: the 100GB Bug.
As most people know, McDonald's restaurant signs show the number of
hamburgers the giant chain has sold. That number now stands at 99
billion burgers, or 99 Gigaburgers (GB). Within months or even weeks, that
number will roll over to 100GB.
McDonald's signs, however, were designed years ago, when the prospect of
selling one hundred billion hamburgers seemed unthinkably remote. So
the signs have only a ones and tens column.
This means that, after the sale of the 100 billionth burger, McDonald's
signs will read "00 Billion Burgers Sold." This, experts predict, will
convince the public that, in over thirty years, no McDonald's hamburgers
have ever in fact been sold, causing a complete collapse of consumer
confidence in McDonald's products. The ensuing catastrophic drop in
sales is seen as almost certain to force the already-troubled company into
bankruptcy. This, in turn, will push the teetering American economy
over the brink, which, finally, will complete the total devastation of the
global economy, ending civilization as we know it, and forcing us all to
live on beetles.
