Once a tipping point is reached (and that was always going to happen according to the 140,000 year graph), things happen quickly.

The warming period you refer to 'the bit on the graph' took 15,000 - 20,000 years. The only other times the temperature has increased as quickly as it is now is when natural, epic, extinction-level disasters happened.
Your graph is not precise enough to show hundreds of years. You can't know where we are on that graph is so broad. 150 years won't show up on it.
