How much do you have to hate life and the Human race to be
this eager for it to be over? I suppose that's what happens when you don't appreciate reality. RaputreNuts™ always remind me of those crazies from the
Voluntary Human Extinction Movement. The sentiment is annoyingly similar to the 'animals are great, Humans are awful' attitude, both seem to suggest that because we're not perfect, we shouldn't exist. (If other animals were really better than us wouldn't THEY be making that argument?)

No, I don't remember. The first time I heard about Harold Camping was here. Such verbal farts simply aren't considered newsworthy in my corner of the world. And I certainly didn't go looking for that kind of shit.
The only thing that actually made it into some tabloids was the Maya bullshit of 2012.

I really wish stuff like that happened in the UK. I would take them for every penny. By the time I was done they would have taken five grand for the deed to their house so they can live like a rockstar for their final days.
I honestly don't understand why you people are here typing this. Make them show the courage of their convictions and buy all of their earthly belonging for dirt cheap.

I cannot in good conscience kudos a post which suggests taking advantage of the Indoctrinated. Shame on you sir! I'll just have to kudos your post in bad conscience.
