The coming -ocalypse

Going around on the internet, this appeal:

PLEASE re-post if you know someone (or are related to someone) who has been eaten by a panda. Pandas are nearly unstoppable and when hungry, also breathe fire. Some even shoot laser beams from their eyes. 71% of people won’t copy re-post this because they have already been eaten by a panda, 28% are hiding in their showers with fire extinguishers awaiting the coming pandocalypse and the remaining 1% are awesome and will re-post.

Yes, -ocalypse words keep piling up, as portmanteaus spawn a libfix.

Meanwhile, don’t go out in the woods tonight. Beware the panda bears’ picnic.

    I’d prefer pandapocalypse, but that’s more blend-y than libfix-y.
