However, inevitably, the sun will explode and turn Earth into a cinder. Any fragment of humanity that might have existed will be vaporized. All that will remain will be some vestigial Voyager-like exploration spacecraft and radio signals that get asymptotically weaker with each light year they travel.
So really, Umberto Eco's reasons why lists provide us with an illusion of order in nature and immortality are the same reasons we watch "Sex Rehab w/ Dr. Drew" or listen to Kendra Jade ride the Sybian; because we are witnessing what will certainly be the last evidence of humanity. And the gravity of that is undeniable.

1. Vacation on the Isle of Cyprus!
2. Decide the Crusades are stoopid.
3. Have strategically "diplomatic" dinner with Pope Boniface VIII, laugh at his lame jokes
4. Piss off the King of France
5. Get arrested, get tortured GITMO-style, get forced to admit that the Knights Templar are an order of devil-worshiping homosexuals.

7. Get burned at the stake.
8. (Epilogue) When the head of French King Louis XVI was severed by the guillotine during the French Revolution, an anonymous person reportedly jumped on the gallows and shouted, "Jacques de Molay is avenged!"

I've worked with, and against, depression for the past decade, and apart from medication and CBT work, the biggest thing keeping my life on track is the little 3x5 card I keep in my pocket with all my to-do stuff. I re-write the card every night and carry over the stuff I haven't done yet. It's helped immensely, and the satisfaction of checking a thing off the list is a great feeling.
Thanks, Umberto!

Hope those Vice guys are socking the money away, because I figure they have five years left, tops. Why five? Because that's when the main body of hipsters start having to go straight, start getting married, start having kids, start needing real jobs, and when the trust funds start running out.

Meaning, once the very specific and narrow generation to which Vice pitches itself, outgrows the Vice product, they will no longer consume the Vice product.
Unless, of course, they can make the transition into staying relevant to next bunch of hipster twats who come along.

I totally disagree with your five year theory - When I was 16/17 I used to read Vice - I haven’t touched it for years now (I’d much rather read about it on Gawker), but now I find my little brother who’s 17 reads it avidly....and so on…

Seriously, though. Perhaps you should give it another go. It's not all tits and cocaine anymore. Just some tits and cocaine.

Tossing McDonnell is perhaps the best example of how this would save the industry.

Under Terry's editorship, Esquire was an ASME finalist SEVEN times. Just try comparing Esquire's (well-documented recently by DiGiacomo in VF) pathetic fiction to the work Terry accomplished back then.
@Immaculate:
1) Jann promoted Terry because he earned that ME position.
2) "Personal habits"? You're actually chastising someone who worked at Rolling Stone under Wenner in the early 80s for having fun?
3) Jann and Terry, to this day, are close friends. If Terry stole anything from Jann, it was a series of classic Hunter S. Thompson anecdotes due to the fact that HST adored Terry and wasn't so fond of Jann.
4) Nick writes his own novels. Terry is (and will proudly admit it) an editor, not a writer. And an effing legendary one, who works seven days a week, has completely revived si.com (who do you think oversaw the CNN partnership?), and most importantly, a gentleman.
Jealousy doesn't justify idiotic, ignorant bashing of someone you clearly know nothing about.
