Instead of chocolate Jesuses (Jesi?), this advent calendar has useful instructions for each day approaching the apocalypse. Although the world didn’t end on December 21, you can still end it all with an “ominous white pill” tucked into December 20. I gave it a lick while admiring the impeccable window perforations, and while it didn’t kill me, I think it did make me stronger.

Project Description
Think about it. If the end of the world is approaching, what’s the natural thing to do? That’s right. Create an advent calendar. Ours features 20 days of apocalyptic advice behind fun-to-open perforated doors. All delivered with trademark GS verve and, um, tact. Along the way, recipients were encouraged to prepare for survival, lose their minds, or end it all by taking an ominous white pill. Whatever the ultimate outcome, we feel fine.
