Honestly, my biggest fear is Betelgeuse...

No, not the movie! The star! It's about to explode (or rather, it already has we just haven't seen it yet). When it does, scientists speculate it's going to be so big that even though it's like 900 light years away or something, it's going to look as big as the sun in the sky. And it's going to be that big for about 2 weeks.

That worries me! The nuclear radiation, the intense heat... Either one of those things could potentially pose a great threat to the planet. Even if it was only half of amount of heat and radiation that we get from our sun, that's going to have a massive impact on our world.
No real need to worry. For one thing, it could be thousands of years before it explodes. Also, the radiation will be lesser than that of our sun (no gamma bursts, very little UV). However, the only real thing to worry about is the brightness. It will brighten to our sun's amount of... brightness (I guess) over two weeks, but it will stay there for 2-3 months before starting to dim.

What are they doing at night in the park?

Ducks...


Cookie for ref?

Ummm...I'm probably wrong, but Craig Ferguson's book contained killer ducks at night in Kelvingrove Park...?

The porpoise people!
They live just beneath the waves, waiting for the day when the ice caps melt and flood the world to expand their domain!

If you get caught, you are dragged to the lair of Nix, where they will mind-wipe you and return you to the surface to do their bidding as a sleeper agent!

Why won't anyone listen?! And why am I always out of tin foil when I need it?!

Somewhere in here is the answer. Or perhaps the answer...is the Question!
Who is that guy, and where can I watch more from him
No really. He's known as "The Question", a man who suspects and questions everything with rigorous detail. And this was taken from Justice League Unlimited, so you'd have to sift through that for all the relevent episodes.

This and Great Cthulhu who lies asleep in the sunken city of R'lyeh till the stars are right.
Don't worry the mighty Narwhal army of the north will come forth to combat Cthulhu and force him back to the sunken city of R'lyeh.

Obviously mankind itself.
It's like asking "what's the most common reason for people getting divorced?"

I mean, we're just 'causing our own problems here.

How odd because racism is dying down and there weren't as many atheist 100 years ago.
