My favorite conspiracy theory is that the Rapture happened long ago, but few enough people qualified that it only amounted to a handful of unsolved missing persons cases.

I remember that dude. He owned several shitty little local radio channels. For years, just sounded like a very stodgy traditional regular Christian. Then he realized, the nuttier he got, the more money.

You can't prove that we're all not dead and in some kind of weird purgatory right now. Maybe FamilyRadio.com was right!

The world did end in 2011. Or, rather, it began to end in 2011. Turns out, the end of the world is a very gradual, painful process. Probably got almost a hundred more years left before the end of the world finishes happening. But they're all going to be progressively shittier years.

TBF it says "it begins May 21, 2011"

It could just still be in progress.

Edit: he also claimed that the universe would be destroyed "October 21, 2011" which apparently also didn't happen.

The day after, we were all convinced he was wrong, but 15 years later, I'm almost convinced he was right.

I'd have been okay with it ending in 2011.

We really wouldn't have missed anything good.

Being my slave guarantees it

Maybe End of the World was the band, and their album Judgement Day was dropping on that day?

I thought Judgement Day was August 29, 1997?

The last such bullshit I put any faith in was a pamphlet titled something like "88 Reasons Jesus is Coming Back in '88". A decade later and I was at most deist (with a pagan phase dying down) well on my way to atheism.

Honestly, kind of want to wrap my car with that. Specifically I just want "The Bible Guarantees It!" on my bumper and the cool space hourglass.

People don’t talk about that event anymore, but it was a big deal for me. The Secular Humanist group I was in threw an Apocalypse Party.

It was also my first time doing karaoke. I sang the Doobie Brothers - Jesus is Just Alright

OK, what did Trump do on that May 21st, 2011?

ITT: Maybe he was right. Everything is garbage now. I hate everyone and wish we were all dead. BUT lol!

Accountant: WTF no, life is worth living!

Everyone: wow accountant you are so negative

What are you talking about? The world ended, the truck was right, obviously we need more Jezuzibus.
