This is not a test

This is not a test. We are conducting the Emergency Normal Doom (END) alert system. If you can read this message, then you are doomed to a life of countless days of no consequences but do not worry, we have the perfect solution for you.
    Please go outside and check the sky. If you see gray clouds hovering above and all around you appears dark and gloomy, then run back inside and down to the lowest level of your house. From there, just prepare to have a long nap or if you don't like naps, read a book, daydream or do nothing. After 2 hours, if you don't wake up refreshed or if you don't hear any noise from the outside, then you are doomed for a lifetime of naps and slow days, otherwise known as a normal day.
    If you're reading this already inside the lowest level of your house but you've got magic beans, then you're safe from the system. Eat those beans and wait 10 minutes before going outside. If once outside and you see a clear sky, then stay out.
    If you still see dark clouds appearing, then you are doomed. But do not despair, your doom will only last 2 minutes, 17 seconds and some moments of disbelief. Then a wormhole will appear nearby. Walk through it and you will be transported to another universe where the sky is always a clear blue and the weather is a pleasant 78 degrees Fahrenheit.
    If you're reading this somewhere in another universe through a magic mirror, then ignore this message, this is not for you.
    If you have done the magic bean and wormhole thing, then congratulation! You're saved! If you're still reading this, prepare to be doomed...

  3. I am probably doomed. Not to worry. Books and naps suit me just fine.
