But yeah. So it turns out that the end of the world (http://www.nuklearforums.com/showthread.php?t=40118&highlight=Harold+Camping) is still coming (http://news.yahoo.com/apocalypse-coming-still-153926833.html;_ylt=ApYHYGvu24Mwdw3U.6KzMBqwag8F;_ ylu=X3oDMTRoNjZjNHA5BGNjb2RlA2dtcHRvcDIwMHBvb2xyZX N0BG1pdANOZXdzIGZvciB5b3UEcGtnA2E2YzkxYTcwLTVlMzEt M2ZjYy05MDE1LTE4NTIzZTA1MTFmNARwb3MDNARzZWMDbmV3c1 9mb3JfeW91BHZlcgMyMmY0OGI3MC1mODBkLTExZTAtYmJiZi0w YzA5M2MxNzk0YjE-;_ylg=X3oDMTJ0YmlobWYxBGludGwDdXMEbGFuZwNlbi11cwRw c3RhaWQDMWFjNGIxMzktNzAxOC0zMjU2LTgyMjUtZThmNDM1ZD RiZmE4BHBzdGNhdAN3b3JsZHxhc2lhBHB0A3N0b3J5cGFnZQ--;_ylv=3) or something. And we're coming up to the finish line. So, do you plan to spend your last days in sin? Or on your knees? Perhaps both? At once?

Really, though. I can't believe Harold Camping still has followers. He's botched faked these predictions, what, twice now? Well, after his stroke, he's not likely to survive the third one anyway, ne?

Ohohoho! Is she fine? Are you planning to rapture her, personally?

Or, barring that due to alternative plumbing...

Is he fine? Are you planning to rapture him, personally?

We need a crazy cult where no one has to do anything crazy or hurt anyone or hurt themselves or say anything mean to gay people or dead people's families. You'd think a cult like that would already exist and be pretty much popular.

Sounds like a cult of Friendship. In which case, you were beaten to it by the entire internet.

Also, pretty sure the world won't end on Friday. I've yet to build the doomsday device.

But if you insist...

What, you don't have a time machine either so you can get your doomsday device sent back in time to you before you decide to build it? What kind of low-rent supervillain are you anyway?! I already have at least 4 doomsday devices and half a dozen time manipulation gizmos.

Haha wow literally just learned about this guy in my Social Psych class. It's just Cognitive Dissonance Theory where people have already put so much time/effort into believing in the Cult that they don't want to realize that it was all just a fraud. They're trying to avoid that dissonance (feeling of discomfort caused by performing an action that is inconsistent with one's beliefs/attitudes).

Thank the gods, a hero has arrived.

Can I make a request that autoplay no longer be allowed, like, anywhere that doesn't specifically mention it being used in the thread title? Because that last page was awful.

I'm glad to hear that. If you take some time to think your response through instead of just posting whatever knee-jerk reaction went though your mind at first, I'm sure it'll be a much more worthwhile post.

You're assuming I'm capable of worthwhile posts to begin with.


...no wait, I'm pretty sure that if I make some kind of post with profound insights and such - y'know, like the rest of the forum - that's one necessary step towards summoning a worldwide flaming meteor barrage. You'd dare risk the world like that?

As resident forum pagan deity feline of a less than sane demeanor, I would just like to step in amongst yawweh and his spawn, and Fenris, to state that as odds go, if and when the world does end, you'll likely greet the end doing exactly what you're doing right now.

Which is reading a post on a forum talking about the world ending.

That said, the world will only end when and if I decide you keyboard slapping monkeys are no longer capable of setting things on fire and/or being flammable.

....You'd think Yaw-way's (eat fresh) computer files would all be "His Files" and just infer that everyone else's data was the shared file.
