My favourite ludicrous defence spending story was when the MoD decided to save money by deleting the 27mm cannon from the Typhoon and replacing it with ballast, until it turned out several years down the line that the ballast was going to cost more than the gun. So they bought the gun *as ballast*

Seconded, and especially for the precision of the Confederacy of Dunces reference. This could be an Armageddon that only an Ignatius Reilly -- albeit with considerably less humanity as ballast -- could foist upon us.
I feel as if making Stephen Miller the National Security Advisor could result in us all dying in a really innovative and non-cliched way. Like not a Tom Clancy disaster but like some kind of John Kennedy Toole way where our demise is the manifestation of incel inadequacy
