Rapture Sign-In!

[Ponder]

6pm BST now and people are making Rapture jokes like there's no tomorrow!

[Kara]

Camping is 89 years old; how funny* would it be if he died of old age at 6pm tonight?

(Funny ironic, not funny haha. Though I would probably ha in spite of myself.)

My guess would be death by cyanide pill. I wouldn't want to make a claim like that and risk being wrong and having to face everyone.

I have no doubt that he'll keep a straight face as he explains it away, perhaps like this:

"I am but a humble servant of God, and cannot possibly fully understand his work." Yada yada.

Right, only warning time. Keep it to the guy who made the claim, and none other. We have people of all faiths on here, and we're not going sectarian on anyone.

I'm still here!

[Kogarashi]

I'm still here, but it's not quite 6pm in this time zone yet (it's 1:52pm).

Though I was joking with my sister-in-law because today is our birthday. I believe our comment was, "Thanks, God, great birthday present! You couldn't save it for the 22nd?"

My roomie and I were having a discussion last night on the time-zone specific thing. What would happen if you traveled west to somewhere that has already been hit? Would Jesus come back for you? Or would it be like, "Dude, I'm not making 2 trips."

Yeah, I'm going to hell for all my jokes about this alone.

Afghanistan has been spared!

Cooking veggie burgers because they were free. Someone mentioned my name.

Something up?

Just makin' sure that you're still with is. I guess GK is hunkering down in the bunker?

I think in that case, you'd need to defer to this. ( I know someone posted it before, but it bears reposting because it's so damned hilarious)

ETA:

This just in! Random Raptures around the country!

As of 4:28 EDT I, my husband and my FIL (they're outside working on installing a French drain) are all here.

[crazyofficeclerk]

4:42 Eastern time and I think I'm still here.

Here's the thing. Camping has already made this claim once . . . in 1994 IIRC.

He said he did the math wrong. Wonder what he'll claim this time?

Almost 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time, and I'm still here. No sign of quakes or tsunamis. My kid's a little extra whiny today, and the neighbor's having trouble with his car alarm. Other than that, it's pretty quiet here.

Of course, being Mormon, I don't qualify for the Rapture anyway.

6:52am Australian CEntral Standard Time May 22 and I'm here!

Actually, his previous prediction was that Jesus would return to Earth on a particular day in 1994.

Tick tock, tick tock....6 pm Eastern Time, and other than my ceiling fan making a little more noise than normal, nothing amiss.

*yawn*

Think I'll watch 2012 for giggles.
