48 days until google cuts the cho... err..cord, will be decommissioned,
disabled, disconnected, deactivated, dismantled, shut down, turned off,
put aside, unplugged, inoperative, unavailable, mothballed, disallowed,
taken down, phased out, gone kaput, consigned to the annals of history,
blocked, nixed, ixnayed, etcetera . . . countdown to usenet armageddon?

The Googhul Groupocalypse is near! Battle of Groupsspagheddon looms!

groupocalypse ==> group + apocalypse
goopocalypse ==> google + apocalypse
groupsspagheddon ==> groups + spaghetti + armageddon

It will probably be a whimper compared to the maelstrom of the eternal
September. Yet we can say that October cometh in another eternity.

Google 'groupsspaggheddon' cometh.
There shall be zoomer weeping,
Karen wailing,
and boomer gnashing of dentures.
