"Asteroid strike ? Quite the fashion these days, I understand. Strike into the Indian Ocean, great big cloud of dust and vapor, goodbye all higher life forms." ...
"All the higher life forms scythed away, just like that."
"Terrible"
"Nothing but dust and fundamentalists."
"That was nasty."
"Sorry, couldn't resist it."
(Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, "Good Omens")
