Line 1:
{{trope}}
Something of a [[Stock Phrase]], this is a common humorous hyperbole used to emphasize how unlikely a given event or action is in the current context, such as [[Out-of-Character is Serious Business]]. Alternately, it can be used to suggest that something is [[So Bad It's Horrible|so awful that it must be a sign of the impending end of the world]], usually with a knowing wink at the exaggeration. It is often used to lampshade when the [[Dumbass Has a Point]].
In use it takes either a declarative form ("X is [[One of the Seven Signs of the Apocalypse]].") or an interrogative ("Isn't X [[One of the Seven Signs of the Apocalypse]]?").
