Rapture dispelled ... what's next?

I say we go after the "shoes that you magically get in shape by wearing them"

I like the "lotion that magically firms your thighs and rids your body of cellulite!"

What about those tiny little bottles of stuff that kill all the bad things in your guts, make the good things grow, reset your cholesterol to zero... but every brand has it's own unique formula...

"Listen to your gut" says one of the current advertising campaigns.
I did.
Turns out the bastard was in competiton with my brain to become the largest organ, and now it is, has no intention of surrendering its power.

Acai Berries.

There was no such thing 10 years ago, now they're in everything.

I suspect it's a genetically engineered fruit-like paste that enhances compliance with the desires of liberal government officials. Including the kinky ones.

wrt Acai

woo hoo.

I succumbed to some of the marketing hype, and bought a bottle of Acai liquor. Sweeeet. Too sweet for my palate. I'll wind up mixing it for some fruity daiquiris I guess.

I have to admit I've been disappointed by the lack of Zombie action for years.

I didn't know you and flint swang with the zombies. Maybe you need to borrow minifob's Zomblebee to see if you can attract some? or are you saying flint is a zombie

OK let me just say that just because the folks who thought they were on baby J's A list are still here doesn't mean there wasn't a rapture. It's just that this entire planet is gomorrah.

No go run along and have sin fun. I mean some fun.

Actually, since we are talking about an article of faith that by definition is not limited by any rules, there can be any number of alternate explanations.

One of which is that 1/4 of the planet was raptured. It's just that G-d, in his mercy, has expunged their memory from friends and family to spare them the pain.

Fortunately, I have found a list. Being that it is over 1 billion people, it is quite extensive.

I am so disappointed.

I thought everyone was saying "the raptor" was coming, and I really wanted to see that.
