Check the listing for details. Worst. Timeline. Ever. 1.25” Button Multiverse Slogan Darkest Times Pin Badge. Condition: New. Listed at 2.25 USD. Worst. Timeline. Ever. Gloomy Multiverse Slogan Button This listing is for a 1.25" button with the phrase Worst. Timeline. Ever. The Worst Timeline or the Darkest Timeline is a reference to the multi-verse theory which hypothesizes that there are multiple universes outside of our own in which all things are possible, and that we live in the worst possible of these universes. After the phrase was popularized by an episode of Community, it became a popular reference online to discuss confusion at current events, although it has also been used as a template to express different opinions at current events (i.e. "The Best Timeline," "The Strangest Timeline," etc.). The multi-verse theory was first posited by Erwin Schrödinger in 1952. As of February 2020, when this is being written, the world has suffered through catastrophic fires in Australia, drone assassinations in Iraq, BREXIT, the death of Kobe Bryant, a global pandemic, and the acquittal of impeached President Donald Trump. What more can happen? We’ll find out soon enough! The button is printed with a . at the end of each word to invoke a fraught pause, as is often used by Jeff Albertson (the Comic Book Guy) on ‘The Simpsons.’ Wear this button while rolling dice to see who picks up the pizza, while trying to borrow money from yourself in a parallel dimension, while fighting to the death over the last package of toilet paper, or while looking for a copy of ‘The Bernstein Bears Go to Mars.’ See our eBay store for more interesting buttons - combine orders to save shipping!
