Hey guys, posting from hell. Looks like my CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT didn't protect me from the divine wrath of God.

I must be in hell, because the GW price increase just seems like it's the devils work.

Rapture? Sounds bout right regarding one of my hobbies

Prepare for Zombies! Though, a Zombie Apocalypse doesn't really seem like punishment.

On a slightly related note, what happens if a Zombie bites a werewolf?

simple. have Kate Beckinsale bite the werewolf, and get a Zombie Michael Corvin!

Then we grab as much bourbon and beer as we can. drive to Fritz's.
hopefully he'll have been able to aquire large amounts of charcoal for a crazy
amount of BBQ, zombie killin' and drinkin'. lather. rinse. repeat.

2 questions...
1)Do we drive in a CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT?
2)Can i drive it?

1) duh!
2) hell yes! always have a designated driver!

In regards to 2) i wil be drunk as all hell but we'll be in a CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT so it won't matter too much.

You know, Christians enjoy labelling all others in general terms, why is it that you all possess differing views on the same topics and do not like to be labelled as a single group?

Umm, you kind of answers it in your question. DIFFERENT VIEWS are very important when it comes to religion, its not like labelling a set of TV show fans.

Live in California for a few years. I live in the Bay Area, and anything up to a 5.0 I usually won't even feel, and even at a 5.0 it's 'Hey, is there a truck driving by?'

We're just used to it.

Now, RAIN on the other hand....

Try living in the tropics.

I generally live in a malaise
under a storm cloud

...I'm waiting for my turn. I love displays of nature..... TO THE MAXXXXXX!

I heard the only damage was on one block in Oakland..... a small store front church sandwiched between an auto shop and a palm reader's business.



On another note.... The definition of Irony..... The Rapture happens and Rev Camping gets left behind.... but Stephen Hawking gets raptured.

Well the only thing that happened here yesterday was that at exactly 6pm a large, funny coloured cloud came over the sun, the fire alarm in the Uni library (where i was) started going off, and we heard lots of sirens from the center of town.
No rapture AFAIK.

Well crap. I slept in the most ridiculous outfit I had, and even wore a hate with a feather in it, just so Id be ready to mock everyone on DAKKA......thanks alot false prophet guy!!

Maybe I can convince him to give me a refund on the hat I bought

It's the least he could do.
Wonder if Camping said something like, "Well if there ain't no Rapture I'll eat my hat, guffaw!"

From what I heard in radio interviews with people who believed it'd happen, conversations of that nature went like this:

Interviewer: So what if it doesn't happen?
Rapturist(?): It will.
I: But what if it doesn't?
R: But it will.
I: So you won't mind me calling you up next week and asking to come back on?
R: You can try, but I won't be there to answer.
I: But if you were, would you come back on?
R: That's an impossible scenario because I won't be.

Ect. ect. ad infinitum.

Hmmm, I'm a Californian who goes to uni in Scotland, and spends lots of time with family in the Philippines. So yes, it is all true. I curse the weather up here in St. Andrews quite a bit. -.-

That being said, I was more talking about how a light drizzle in California will lead people to have to head out 10 minutes early thanks to the traffic jams the rain will cause. In essence,light rain will cause a bigger impact on my life than an earthquke 99% of the time. I find this kind of amusing.
