Every time someone believes the hype behind an apocalyptic theory that will end the world, and the hysteria that ensues.

The phrase "The sky is falling" has passed into the English language as a common idiom indicating a hysterical or mistaken belief that disaster is imminent.

Condition in which a person believes life is a big coming-of-age drama starring them, and the rest of the people in the world are either supporting characters or extras. They are obsessed with figuring themselves out: Why is my life so hard? When will I be happy? Why can't I get what I want? What's wrong with me? Who will finally tame my wild spirit and get me to settle down? Life, to them, is a quest to answer these questions, and it should be everybody else's quest too.
