Humanity may be irreparably doomed, but at least we have a sense of humour about it.
Last week, Black Mirror Season 4 infiltrated our screens with its usual mix of techno-terror and sweet, nihilistic misery.
A bunch of people got excited, a bunch of people discussed it, and a bunch of people did what people do best when faced with doom and disaster: cracked a bunch of jokes on Twitter...
