Five months? I thought we were supposed to get a thousand year reign of the Anti-Christ?
I hope all those fundamentalist Christians realize that Revelations says that only 144,000 are going… and that they’ll all be Jews.
I thought the end of the world was coming in December 2012. You know, the Mayan calendar thing? Do we still have to worry about that?
They’ll be Jewish?
That might affect my wedding’s guest list. It’ll be interesting to see whose reply cards come back saying “so-and-so can’t attend, they were Raptured, enjoy your wedding anyway. Mazal tov! Oh, and too bad that you were left behind.”
But that’s Sunday 3 AM here (Copenhagen), and Sunday 4 AM in Jerusalem. Wouldn’t it be more logical, if logic applies at all, that it would happen noon or midnight in Jerusalem?
I’ll be working that day. Wonder if I should take surface roads, and if I should insist on cash payment? Then I want to stop at the cupcake boutique; they’re having two of my favorite flavors on the same day. Incidentally, that’s going to max out my store card, which makes me wonder if I should bother putting more credit on.
Can we squeeze in a Dopefest for me somewhere?
Q
So, can I skip cleaning the bathroom this week? If I’m still here on Sunday, I’ll clean it, but until I know for sure one way or another, I’m not scrubbing the toilet.
Also, if I’m not here Sunday, could one of you* come by and feed my cats?
- And by “you” I mean The Damned, of course.
I’m being fitted with my permanent dentures on the 20th. I hope I have time to eat a steak. That’s not too much to ask for, is it?
Almost forgot about this.
This morning I passed a caravan of 5 identical custom painted campers from FamilyRadio.com telling everybody that it’s all over on the 21st, and it’s guaranteed by the bible. If 5 custom painted campers isn’t convincing evidence, I don’t know what is.
They were on I-93 North in MA, just north of the I95 split, in case that’s some kind of biblical clue about who gets to stay…I mean has to go… well I forget how that works, but it must be important.
I know where I’m going for the evening. Apparently they’re going to have something called a “Fuck Bike” at this party. That by itself is a must-see, let alone the 69-foot long dragon art vehicle.
I do work for the power company. For Utah. ha. haha. hahahahaa. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!
I cant wait for people to put vids of this up on youtube!
I’m on call, so I’ll be working, due to all the car crashes that don’t-give-a-shit religious people have caused by getting raptured up from behind the wheel. Unless I’m taken up, which I regard as highly unlikely, unless Jesus was Maitreya, in which case, woot!
Dude. Look at the writing on the walls. There is no cake.
I’ve always figured that anyone arrogant enough to believe they’d be raptured, wouldn’t be on the list to get raptured, by default.
The way I understand it, it’s going to happen at 6 PM in every time zone. So it’s going to be a 24-hour or so rapture (I’m not sure if the various countries around the International Date Line observe DST, so it could take only 23 hours depending). Fiji should be taken around midnight Chicago time tonight (CDT). So at least those of us on the opposite side of GMT should have plenty of warning. I just feel sorry for the Fiji peole who have to spend a day doing nothing but hangin out in the atmoshpere all day. I wonder if they’ll get altitude sickness.
Incidentally, I’m spending that night in Small Bar on Division Street in Chicago where they will present a face-off of 3 Floyds’ beers vs. Victory Brewing’s beers as part of the Chicago Craft Brew Week. It starts at 7:00, though, so with the rapture happening around 6:00 or so, I’m not sure what I’ll actually be doing when the time comes. Maybe going to the bar early and convincing some believer to buy the bar a round, since he won’t be around much longer anyway.
But there IS pie. I believe in Cherry pie.
I’m going to be in Hollywood. On Sunset Blvd., to be exact. I don’t think I’d notice anybody disappearing even if the nutballs are right.
And what Jenaroph said.
If I’m raptured, at least I’ll get done with work early. Pretty sure I’m not in the running, though.
This morning at work, we were joking around about where we will be when it happens. One of the more religious ladies got a little upset…I think she thought we were poking fun at Jesus! :eek: 
Camping has reinterpreted and says that 200 million will be raptured. Better odds, but still not enough of a population drop to be significant, darn it all.
