You're such an apocophile. I figure either we'll both be dead, or I'll be laughing. Win or draw to me then.

Doomerosity

A scale used in the peak oil peaknik community to relate the level of global impact an individual expects from the peak in global oil production.

Ranges from 0 (peak oil is just a big hoax) to 6 (welcome to the stone age). 3 is a global catastrophe from which modern society will eventually recover.

My doomerosity is currently at 2, maybe 3. I used to be more of a doomer but that was just my apocophile tendencies getting the better of me.

doomer

Someone who expects the worst possible outcome from a global occurrence, especially the peak in global oil production.

Antonyms are cornucopian, humanist, realist.

Doomers hold a faith based belief that humanity is incapable of resolving human-society created global issues, e.g. by replacing oil with other energy sources.

Refer apocophilia

peakoil.com is packed full of doomers practicing group-think like it was a survival skill.

I used to be a doomer, but then I remembered how to add.
