Somebody has to ask this question.
I'm pretty sure, one way or another, I'll be here come May 22nd. I'll be cleaning my Mom's house before she moves to a retirement community in Omaha. 8^)
If the rapture actually happens... what will you be doing on Sunday?
I personally will be arming up and getting ready for some gun play. ;D

Well, given that I survive, I guess I'll be being chased by zombies. A lot of people are laughing at this prediction like it's a joke; this is how I feel about all religious beliefs. Why is this particular instance so damn funny? Have you guys actually put some thought into any sort of religious beliefs out there? It's all one big comedy show to me.
Cheers, I'll be brewing and drinking homebrew on Sunday.

We're going on a bicycle pubcrawl!

Well if the rapture happens I'm going into work since it'll be a National disaster and I'm on the roster to respond. If I'm taken WTF will I care.

One more reason I don't miss oncall.

Huh, first I've heard of it. I'm brewing. Would be a shame if I was taken and missed the 30min hop addition. :-\

That even made my kids ROFLOL. As the kids would text.

I plan to brew 5/21. I might be brewing on 5/22 also, depending on how much I brew today and tomorrow. The rapture? Hilarious. But if there is some natural disaster I will either be cleaning up or doing whatever I would have done otherwise, but also listening to the news.
Remember, the prediction* is for rolling earthquakes at 6PM local time, where ever you happen to be. My brother in law is in Jakarta, so he'll let me know what happens. Then we'll have time to get ready.
*By "prediction" I mean made up nonsense.

I hope to be in heaven, but I've read the bible a time or two and know nobody knows the hour.
-
I'm only packing shorts and t-shirts. ;D
It'll be warm and all my friends will be be where I'm going. If you believe the Nuns, that is.

I'll be heading to heaven if the rapture comes.
I'd like to know who leaked the schedule though.
If not I'll be SCUBA diving at Pu`uhonua O Honaunau.

Enjoy the dive!
In Iowa, diving involves a lot of "hey! look at that dirt cloud! Where am I? Which way is up? AAAAAAAAH!... Oh, hold on, never mind, I'm okay."

-
I hope I'm going up, but I'm afraid they may only have light beer up there.
-
Lets hope I have done enough to secure my spot in hell bc that's where the party is at. According to the polka song there "in heaven there is no beer" so that's not where I am goin

I've been invited to a couple of looting parties, but I doubt I'll go. They have their own facebook pages.
Here's a nice flow chart to let you know if you'll be staying or going:

Just in time for the Rapture......on your way up to heaven you can now drink beer in space without the dreaded "Wet Burp"

Isn't that what Tim Allen calls a "Vurp?"
-
My wife and I will be at the Midwest Microbrewers Beer Festival in the big town of Chilton, WI getting hammered... I mean sampling a few brews!
-
Either way I'll be having a homebrew
-
Not sure about beer, but there will be plenty of new wine! Oh, and...

I'm going to the U2 Concert in Denver. Supposedly it will happen at 6:30 pm. Concert starts at 7:00 Hmmm.
Gonna tailgate quite a bit just in case. I'll be using the beer as muscle relaxant just in case...
So long and thanks for all the fish...? :-\
It's kept off the taboo topic so far but ..... IBTL.. 8)
-
Rapture? Isn't that Toronto's NBA team? :D
I'm hoping the rain will pause long enough for me to get the veggie garden in.

Three pints?! At lunchtime?!!!
...I'll have my towel with me, that's for sure.

I'll be returning home from judging the BUZZ Off Competition. The wife and I will have dinner and a pint or two. Rapture? You have to be farkin' kidding me. Just another doomsday scenario. I've been having a little fun with my coworkers over this scam.
In the words of the immortal Jim Morrison. "Let's break on through ot the other side" ;)
-
Praaaaaaaaaaaise Jeeeeeeeeesus! Y'all F*cking guys better repent!
-
"Let's break on throught ot the other side" ;)
I am with you brother, although I just recently learned of my danger.
Perhaps my recent search for some Hood hops for the weekend session are in vain?
Guess that pile of Denny's favorite might go to waste?
Imma gonna celebrate tonight just in case.
Cheers.
-
Yeah, drink up, don't let anything go to waste.

The same guy had predicted that the world would end in 1994. Had a math error.
Having lived through many end of the world predictions, I am not too concerned. The whole Y2K stuff had more veracity than this.
-
I have two kegs that are really close to being kicked. I'd really hoped to kick them before the apocalypse. So I have work to do.
-
I will be celebrating Mr. T's birthday. He will not let the world end.

:-X :-X :-X :-X ;D
East Coast should be there by now....it is already upon us.....

something to do with alcohol and internet porn.

It was more about getting in before the lockdown.... :-X

What's really sad (and utterly stupid) is there are people that spent their life savings and quit their jobs to prepare for this.
-
Well I was gonna mow the lawn this morning. I guess I can skip that. But then what's my excuse for drinking a beer afterwards?... oh yeah... Rapture. ::)
-

what did they buy? apparently nobody told them you can't take it with you. and I'm thinking that the type of folks that think they're going to be plucked up to heaven didn't blow there money on a big, long party. but then what do I know?
-
its not that they bought stuff per se, but that they quit their jobs and budgeted their money to last them until May 21st precisely because you can't take it with you. The people I heard on the radio last night were petitioning in Fla and living out of a hotel room and had a baby due in June with no home, money or job.

I heard an interview with one guy who had spent his life savings buying billboards to warn people.
It's moot at this point, anyway. It was supposed to have started last night at 11 PM PDT with a massive earthquake in New Zealand. That didn't happen.
-
just saw an article on the NPR website about a guy who started a company to take care of your pets after you've ascended in the rapture. don't want them abandoned during the 5 months of bad times, do you? apparently he's gotten about $35 grand in contracts - no refunds.

I raise a pint to the coming and passing of this rediculous, hilarious and just plain stupid prediction. ;D
-
I can do nothing but laugh hysterically! What a joke this was! And what's even better is that f*cking guy who got that 35 grand from those morons who wanted their pets to be safe after the rapture! Unbelievable.
This life that people paint to be "the truth" is one big comedy show. I can't believe people buy into religion and its manipulative nature. THINK for yourselves, you peasants!
-
Great news! Made it through all my hop additions!!!

This is why I've gotten into watching and following the news. What we humans get up to in real life is stranger than fiction. I prefer to think for my self- not to have some half-baked holy roller telling me what to think and how to act.
-
Hey guys, it's true! I'm in Heaven!
Oh wait... It's Hawaii...
Same - same!
-
I live in Iowa...remember Field of Dreams? "Hey! Is this heaven?" "No, it's Iowa!"
True story...
By the way Euge, Stranger than Fiction would be a good name for a beer. I just might use that.

That's the one that broke the camel. Talking about the absurdity of this is one thing. But being critical of people's faith is something else entirely. Especially since 99.9% of religious people thought this was a load of crap. And there are people of faith on the forum so lets have some respect.
