All About the Rapture


So this #Rapture hastag is trending here on twitter and facebook.  I want to to ask the question to all of you out there who are reading my blogs (all 2 of you):  What is are your plans for the end of the world this coming saturday, May 11, 2011?  Praying? Repentance? Bible-studying? Partying? Looting? Pranking?

Have you drank the kool-aid yet?  Have you gotten your nikes all shined up and ready for the end?  Have you organized your animals to be watched while you are in gone rapturing? Have you chosen what your gonna wear for Jesus yet?

If your not familiar with this story, it's been all over the social network sites.  Lemme post a few links for you:

One of the funniest things that I have heard is that there are actually groups of Believers that are getting together money to find people to watch after their animals while they are gone in the Rapture.  Only thing they require to help is that you are an athiest.

Here are some popular tweets trending over the past five minutes (some of them are particularly hilarious)...

1) Rapture prank: On Saturday, take some of your unwanted clothes and shoes and leave sets of them arranged on sidewalks and lawns around town.
2) Maybe there is something to this Rapture Day thing for tomorrow. I just called a friend in Australia and there was no answer.
3)  prank: On Saturday, take some of your old clothes and shoes and leave sets of them arranged on sidewalks and lawns around town.
4) Grr, left my ipod at work. C'mon Friday night, don't suck, I apparently might vanish (without my consent) tomorrow.

30)  I love YOU! Rapture after party? I hear it's gonna be SICK! 

haha I could go on forever with the hilarious stuff on twitter.  And this isn't even including the regular hilarity that follows popular tweeters like @GarryShandling, @BillyCrystal, @mcgoogles, @WendyLiebman, @kathleenmadigan, and @SteveMartinToGo.

The rapture has also spawned some hilarious rapture pickup lines like:
1) Before the world goes up in flames, let me light your fire
2) Don't mind me, I'm just looking at your left behind.
3) How would you like the clap for 18 hours? (totally inappropriate but LOL)
4) How great is this  for single dudes tonight? No end to the pick up possibilities.


haha the rest is too vulgar to mention here...


Anyways... That was fun.. I may post again about life post-rapture.  We'll see if there really will be zombies and  looting, or just laughter and joy from the world at the expense of all the believers who were actually "left behind."
