Is the "Destroyer of worlds" a Regular Show reference?

Because if it is kudos to the writers for recognizing one of the first genuinely good shows to come out in a while.

Probably not, it's a pretty commonly used title for just about everything powerful.

Historically it would be a Set reference. Don't think you'll find earlier than ancient Egypt.

I've seen the title many times, I highly doubt It's suppoused to be a reference. If you want an example, a DOW also exists in Terraria.

Could also be a refernece to Robert Oppenheimer's quote from the Bhagavad Gita when he saw the first atomic bomb detonate : "I am become death, the destroyer of worlds"

or ya know, not :P

No, it was the final boss in Borderlands.

Thanks for that. I never finished the old one (Yeah I know blasphemy). Still fun to think about though.

Borderlands came out a full year before the Regular show aired.

"I am become death" was the name of a challenge to complete.

Could also be a Stargate reference to Linea the Destroyer of Worlds. Who knows
Linea could also be a reference to Oppenheimer...

[Burusagi]

The "Destroyer of Worlds" is far too generic of a term to be any specific reference, really.
