Celebrating the apocalypse

[CDNSushi]

I so wish I'd had more notice! I would love to have one of these. Now I'll probably not go to the Rapture because I have nothing to wear

Actually, someone had a good idea for a prank... On Saturday, arrange some of your clothes on the sidewalk near your house. (Would even be funnier if it were an "I survived" shirt)... lol. Too bad I cant get it shipped to me in time. I'd so take pictures and post them! :-)

That's just too good, CDNSushi.

And I think I'll have to get a shirt like that.

The other day a lady from down the street asked me what my plans were for the "Rapture." I'm pretty sure she not only believes it's going to happen, but truly hopes for it. I told her simply "I came into the world fat, bald-headed, naked, screaming and covered in goo. Dammit, that's how I'm going out too." Hopefully she never speaks to me again.

Hope you don't mind someone else using this one; because I am most certainly stealing it. I have a group of apartments down the road that has several folks that seem to go on a tour once a month to talk to everyone about their plans for rapture. Now I feel I have a truly proper response.

I don't mind, I'm a Catholic

Skippys list item #39. Not allowed to ask for the day off due to religious purposes, on the basis that the world is going to end, more than once.

That said, if I see anyone just spontaneously vaporize, I'll buy a six pack.

To quote the XKCD webcomic:
"So, are you worried about the rapture?"
"No, unless it figures out how to open doors."
"I said rapture."

That's a good one.

Don't forget the artificial hips, knees, etc, they don't rapture. Organ transplants... Depends who it came from...

All that stuff is going to be out on the sidewalk along with the clothes and jewelry (referring to CDNSushi's post on prank).

I hate to be a dud and a spoilparty, but maybe just maybe just possibly instead of pointing fingers and laughing, and joining facebook groups about looting after the Rapture, it would be better to take part of the day....or the day before (today) or the day after, or ANY day...

.... and consider our own individual lives. Totally aside from considering what a powerpoint presentation of HERE'S YOUR LIFE would look like if it was assembled by whoever your archenemy is...totally aside from that because you may believe that will never happen....

But totally aside from that, MAYBE it would be better for us each individually to just take some time and think on our lives; how we can be better people, how we can be kinder and more honest with one another, how we affect each others lives, how we affect the lives of people we don't even know, how we effect the natural world we live in, and so on.

I just propose say, maybe an hour of that, to take the place of laughing about "post Rapture practical jokes" and laughing at the stupid, ignorant Christian people who believe in all that silliness...HAHAHAHA. and so on.

sorry for being a preachy SOB and ruining all the fun, eh?

A NOTE TO THOSE WHO MAY DISAGREE - THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR A RELIGIOUS ARGUMENT. IF THAT IS YOUR INTENT PLEASE DO NOT REPLY.

I am one of those "silly Christians" and even I think this guy is a fraud. Remember, he has preached a couple of these doomsdays before. He doesn't support MOST of what he says with the Bible in any meaningful way and THAT is the basis of the teachings of the Christian faith, not what some old guy says. I do agree however that we should all, as individuals strive to make our world a little better and to be the better version of ourselves. Although I believe that any who do not recieve Christ will go to hell (please don't start an argument over religion here it is not the place) that does not mean I want anything but the best for everyone including non-beleivers. If it happens this Saturday, then great. If not then I hope that fraud gets fired and his congregation abandons him.
