October 21 2011 Doomsday... Not! (On Twitter... | Gather

Oh well. So, which date will he set as the real, true, final, full stop, cross my heart and hope to die proper end of the world next time? 11-11-11 looks pretty good...

You can follow the rapture on twitter, of course.

The funny thing is bankers or hippies, you're all going to be equal once you get up here tomorrow... #occupyheaven

But 11-11-11 is the start of the Carnival Season in Köln. At 11:11, no less.

Riiiiiight. "But Daaaaad, you can't end the world now, we're about to launch a huge sinful party!" You're going to burn, man.

Burn baby burn. *doing a silly dance*

Don't forget to resign in style.

Don't forget to resign in style.

For years after I quit my job at a grocery store I had dreams where we swamped; every lane open, with lines backed up all the way to the meat dept at the rear of the store. In my dream, a certain customer service guy I sometimes clashed with had annoyed me one time too many while I was already stressed, so I stopped in mid order, took off my smock, put up my chain to close my line, and stomped over to the time clock and clocked out, telling B he could take over for me, I was DONE. :lol:

No statement from whatshisname?

Wikipedia sez: In October 2011, News24 reported that Camping's congregation had dwindled to "about 25 adults on a typical Sunday". Camping and his followers largely avoided the media in the months following May 2011, and he remained in seclusion after October 21 passed without the predicted events.

In seclusion... or raptured?

Oh great, now the rest of us are toast.

[Anamnesis]

No more predictions from Camping.

He should've done this back in May. Better late than never, I suppose.

 

[beer good]

Does that mean we can now be sure the world won't end?

...Crap, there's still the Mayan thing in December. But after that we're home free, right?

 

[Polly Parrot]

Probably not. I think you can find end of the world prophecies for every year.

 

[Sneezy]

Here you go. Assuming the whole Mayan thing doesn't pan out, of course.

Damnit. Can't you yanks prevent it by getting rid of NASA once and for all?

 

[Sneezy]

You may be on to something there. I've had it with them anyway. All they do is sit about and play with their toys all day. We should be spending our money on other stuff, like bailing out bankers so they don't have to sell their mistress' million dollar Park Avenue apartment. Her eyes are nothing like the Sun, after all.

 

[beer good]

NASA has saved us all!

Well, thank [insert Mayan deity here] for that.

 

[direstraits]

Ah Pukuh. Thank Ah Pukuh for that.

You have to wonder about how wise a fallen civilization could be about predicting the future, when they failed to predict the demise of their own. Just saying.....
