"A couple weeks ago, the President of the United States gave a State of the Union address," Josh said. "And every single State of the Union includes the phrase 'the state of our Union is strong,' which is usually a completely bullshit answer. Today I'm going to give you a terrible scenario--your job is going to bullshit your way out of it in a way that would make people applaud you, even if it's only for your complete audacity."

He smiled. "This should be fun."

"Dear classmates, I am a decorated superhero. I have personally thwarted alien invasions - plural - a demonic infestation, giant monsters, ancient horrors, and so much more. The potential end of the world is something I know well. What I know just as well is seeing the world continue on its merry way," Johnny said. He held a hand out, reaching directly to the class with his plea, "So when I tell you that there is an asteroid hurtling toward the Earth, I want you to know full well that this is nothing I haven't seen before, and it's nothing that can't be handled."

"After all, when it comes to something from space causing trouble, what's scarier? A spaceship full of world-devouring monsters or a big ole' rock? I'd be more scared of the monsters, personally, and you know what? I'm not even scared of that. This will be taken care of shortly."
