Every religion/cult/screaming guy wearing posterboard has an end-of-the-world scenario. What’s the best one?
TWD zombies ofcourse.
The Mayan one in 2012 was pretty good, I really enjoyed it. It ended with the masterpiece that is Gangnam Style.
I distinctly remember Gangnam style being earlier in the year (they played it at my freshman orientation), wasn’t the “prediction” for December?
Hella fun at parties btw
Yes you’re right. But it was connected with the December date. It was the first youtube video to achieve 1 billion views on or around Dec 12, when the apocalypse was prophesied.
Our schools lunch guy fell so hard into this to the point he quit in the days before the date to stand outside the school all day with a sign warning us of whats to come. Great guy with a good heart but wow did those pastors on that radio station have a grip on him.
I remember further back to the big one in 2000. I had a coworker who was convinced it was the end times and had been massively hoarding food for it. He had even been buying stuff like fruit trees, planting them in his backyard along with building a huge garden.
Friends of his had told us he had built a bunker for his family. He got really weird (or weirder) toward the end of that year and started inviting certain close coworkers, who were still talking to him, to hold up with him and his family.
Oddly enough it was only guys with young wives or girlfriends , and they were specifically invited to join. No one went but we all joked he was trying to start a cult.
The guy soon after got fired and I never heard from him again. Am sure he is still around somewhere.
For a moment there I thought you were talking about gangnam style.
I dunno, I feel like it fell off with the entire Harambe act.
In my case, nuclear annihilation. I’m in an area where there’s a pretty good chance when the clock strikes midnight, my city will absolutely be obliterated and hopefully I will disintegrate with it.
It’ll suck for any survivors, but I have a good change of not having to live through it. I’d be dead weight because of being on life saving meds, so you don’t want me in an apocalypse.
Reading the terminals in Fallout 4 and the heartbreak sprinkled within them. Lost people searching for lost loves in the wreckage of social collapse. Searching through twisted metal for any scrap to cling to your new existence. Defiantly a worthy apocalyptic hell scape.
Not religious, but my favorite is the Gamma Ray Burst.
Totally invisible until it hits and BOOM, everything is dead.
Same result, but false vaccum decay.
I don’t think a GRBurst is painless. Humans would still suffer greatly, from radiation poisoning symptoms. Infections, internal bleeding, etc. It would take days…
I don’t think a Gamma Ray Burst would vaporize everything… But I may be wrong.
IT’S A COOKBOOK
Tell me more.
We go good with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.
Best in what way?
More humane? best chance of recovery? most brutal?
Dealer’s choice.
I’m honestly super down for the Rapture. All the Christians getting beamed up to infini-church while the rest of us finally get to live without them
that would only “confirm” they were right all along and then the rest of us (or many at least) would immediately jump on the bandwagon in hopes for a repeat
Honestly I wish they were right. I’d give anything to see those fuckers squirm in front of st peter
Would be funnier seeing them lose their mind why they arent going to heaven but a “GAY TRANS HEATHEN!!AA!1” is
Fuck that. I’ll have no truck with a god that allows children to die of slow agonizing cancer.
Plus mosquitoes.
God’s gonna feel like such an asshole when those left on Earth don’t descend into chaos
It ain’t the religion, it’s the people.
You’ve never met a smug dogmatic till you’ve met a Buddhist smug dogmatic.
I personally think the key to that door is psychedelics.
Honestly, the visualization alone of Melancholia was pretty fucking amazing. Might as well end it quick, and with a bang, mates.
literally the only thing I enjoyed about that movie were the titties.
movie made me violently ill and gave me a migraine.
Fair and fair. I’m sorry about your brain betraying you. I hope it gets better or more manageable at least. I didn’t actually care for the movie or that whole trilogy, but that ending is impressive, visually.
Flip the switch, and the virtual simulation we’re in shuts down.
The best one is the show in the Restaurant At The End Of The Universe.
which is that? damn I need to reread hhg it’s been a while
Minecraft House vs Tsunami (Noob vs. Pro vs. Admin vs. Hacker)
Infinity war style, snap of the fingers and its all over
If you’ve read or seen The Road, whatever that was. because it was complete and total. none of this half measures, pockets of safety and free cities bull shit
Metalocalypse
The latest one. My favourite part is people giving away their cars and homes.
