@Lustig Andrei,
I understood that the spirit and intent of all threads was to provide bored folk like us a chance to give the world a slice of ourselves. Tarted up of course.
I think "veto" is against the spirit of the What's Next thread.
@spendius,
Don't recall that anyone has suggested a veto. Good manners, however . . .

Verily I have often laughed at weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws. Friedrich Nietzsche
“If you are a dreamer come in
If you are a dreamer a wisher a liar
A hoper a pray-er a magic-bean-buyer
If youre a pretender com sit by my fire
For we have some flax golden tales to spin
Come in!
Come in!”
― Shel Silverstein

The above Sagan quote is part of a larger quote that begins like this
“I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness.”
We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.

“The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.”
