See you in Heaven!
Is this something new that I have missed among the gawd crowd? I was shopping today and since I live in a fairly rural community, a lot of people know each other so it isn't unusual to run into people (literally with the shopping cart) chatting in the aisles when they run into each other. So there is the usual catching up stuff and I try to maneuver my cart past them without causing too much "excuse me, but would you please get out of the frakking way!" stuff. However, most of them just say they will catch up or call or do something like that, except today the people I interrupted just smiled saying, "I'll see you in Heaven." to each other.

Do they know something that I don't? :wtf:

3. Huh?
Do you have a problem with using the capital "I". When I question people about this because there was a poet who did this. e. e. cummings, none of them know who he is.

18. The poet in question never capitalized his name.
That's the point.

2. I don't know why they're waiting for the Rapture.
They could be in heaven right now if they really wanted it.

4. No idea. But please tell me where you shop so I make sure not to go there.

5. I'm in California and it was a Trader Joe's.
That's why I'm sort of amazed about this.

26. Ah hell. That's where I live and shop.
Maybe it's an inside joke from some tv show they watch. Creepy.

6. Hmm, that's a new one.
Hey, maybe we can share a ride together so we can use the carpool lane and beat the traffic on the "Highway to Hell." Come the rapture, it'll be bumper to bumper on I-666. :rofl:

7. I know. It's a new one to me too, and I have
had a lot of exposure to the charismatics in Texas and Idaho.

12. That's okay because as long as it gets unrec'd, I will
kick it back to the top of the first page.

13. just ignore the unrecs
Maybe the folks you passed are members of a weird cult that have a day and time they will depart for heaven.

You know, like some weird suicide pact.

24. Too bad the unrec-ers don't have to choose
1..unrec just to f with someone I don't like
2..unrec because even though I did not take time to read this, I know it's something I don't like, so F-it
3..unrec because I like sneaky cowardly acts, and my time is way too valuable to just comment and not re-click

11. Oh wow. I got two unrecs. This post probably
wasn't even worthy of one rec so I guess I have to keep bouncing it back up. It is worth of a discussion though.

15. I have identified about less than ten unrecs (not who they are, just a
number of them) who do this to keep posts off of the front page. They have effectively kept some good posts from that goal. I don't care about this one but the unrecs should be exposed for whom they are.

21. Then they run into each other again, in the aisle with cleaning products and adult diapers.
Look! Heaven!

25. They are probably some of the Rapture Ready crew
who are waiting to be lifted up to heaven any day now.

27. They are smugly indicating that they are part of the "in" crowd
God's chosen who will be going to heaven while the rest of us burn in hell.

It reminds me of the people who say Merry Christmas not in the spirit of joy, but as a dare for you to get angry.

rapture date (they actually said maybe this time, got to cya) as Dec. 21, 2009.
