Oh ye of little imagination!  :)
You probably haven't noticed, but the universe is quite a big place.  ;)

Some estimates say that there should be about 100,000 mergers per year
washing across the earth, but LIGO is not sensitive enough (yet) to
detect them.
Most mergers are far distant, from the early universe creation.
Search for 100,000 black hole mergers, for more info.
