The world to end May 21, 2011

I'm glad to see that the kids at the university here will at least get their sheepskins prior to The End.

Be kind of nice to be able to rent that billboard in perpetuam, and leave that exact same prediction on there, with the predictor's names highlighted.

Like Shelby Corbett's benches.

I went downtown last night to watch the Suns game, and I saw three more of those billboards. There was also a goober at the pavilion outside the arena handing out flyers about the impending rapture. Just another typical day in wacko central.

Remember, the Rapture is just for those who have guessed the right god, have avoided the endless pitfalls and traps, and have sussed out how to live the way the god deems appropriate while having to depend on a book that even they say is mostly metaphorical and very subject to interpretation.

Sounds easy.

You forgot something, the raptured have to be of the 12 tribes of Israel and a virgin.

I've been with my missus for 10 years so I'm nearly a virgin again, but I can't do anything about the tribe thingy!!

And there was a wrapped truck continually circling the Tempe Arts Festival on Sunday. My, this is getting more outrageous than October 22, 1844!

So, this billboard showed up by my work last week. Apparently, the world is ending again. This time, it's May 21, 2011. I guess they are trying to beat the rush during 2012. Has anyone else seen these billboards?

Can't we get them to hold off a few days? My birthday's the 27th and I was hoping for some free beer at least.

Here's a pic. It's pretty crappy; I snapped it through my windshield the other day.

The billboard was changed this morning when I went by. Now it's an ad for Portal 2. I don't now what to think about that. :D
 
Have the people who believe this stuff stopped paying their bills? If not, why would they bother paying their bills anymore?

That made me wonder if this is solely a US thing, or are they pushing it in other countries?

If something were to happen on their dates, I would expect the effect to be pretty much a global event.

(ps. I'm also in the Phoenix area, and have seen the trucks a couple times, but never spotted one of the billboards)
 
I still want to find one of those people...

"Here, sign this. It's a contract that says that I pay you $500 today, and that on May 22, I get your house and your RV. Here's the $500."
