For all those who believe the end is near

[prolesunited]

why are you wasting your day on DU? If I believed disaster was at hand, the last thing I would be doing is sitting in front of a computer.

1. That's going to leave a BIG mark!

:evilgrin:

[DeeJay]

2. If it's good enough for any day, it's good enough for the last one

I'd have no problem with spending my last day here. In fact, I'd bet many people have spent their last day here.

[prolesunited]

17. Well, that's just very sad then

I have a family and friends IRL. If that's the case, perhaps you need to get out more, perhaps volunteer somewhere.

[DeeJay]

24. Just the opposite. One should be satisfied with every day of their life

not just the last one. (that doesn't sound right, lol)

[closeupready]

35. This post is heartless. Are you sure you belong here?

:wtf:

[prolesunited]

36. Heartless because I think it would be sad

if a person had no connections to people in real life? Heartless because I suggested volunteering as a means of making a human connection?

And, yeah, you're right, after 10 years here, I really don't think I belong.

21. Our own Kephra died "in the saddle" so to speak.

3. They're waiting to post the big "I TOLD YOU SO" thread.

But they're going to be pissed when it gets unrecced into oblivion.

[godai]

7. Exactly...n/t

[northoftheborder]

8. Heh.

:rofl:

[Earth_First]

4. Well that's it! I'm heading up to Niagara Falls...

Whose got a barrel?

[TheWraith]

5. They know that the end really isn't near.

It's just disaster voyeurism, and hoping to stroke their egos saying "I told you so."

[Hannah Bell]

6. +100.

[closeupready]

9. For the same reason that those of you who think unicorns and fluffy bunny candy is

the future for everyone in the world.

[godai]

12. Let's see...that's....nobody n/t

[gratuitous]

16. What an interesting coincidence, numerically speaking

Oops, sorry!

[closeupready]

23. Yes, indeed.

Isn't that an interesting coinky-dink.

[livvy]

10. Oh, how ridiculous...

I'm not going any wh....

:rofl:

[inenemyterritory]

11. +1

[DainBramaged]

13. Do you see which finger I have up?

:evilgrin:


If not pick one.


Jesus people have a little humor for once.

[godai]

14. Your post is an example of such 'humor'?

Not sure that humor or lack of humor is the issue. Humor??

[DainBramaged]

15. Merry Christmas.....

:puke:

[Myrina]

18. So since you think no disaster is at hand, you waste time chiding ...

... those who are concerned instead of maybe finding & sharing factual data that may allay their fears?

How humanitarian of you. :eyes:

[godai]

19. There are not just 2 choices...end is near vs no disaster.

We're somewhere in between and I hope we all all hoping for a good resolution to the current, big problem.

[prolesunited]

22. Agreed

There is a real problem and a real danger to be discussed and dealt with, primarily in Japan. I'm not discounting that. It's the chicken little syndrome and our government is lying that I'm questioning.

[hlthe2b]

25. Perhaps we can have a forum for the concerned 'center'

One of the few times recently, I feel comfortable not to be on either extreme. But, yes, it seems some posters are unable to equate any attitude between total denial and imminent Apocalypse.

[prolesunited]

20. What I see is a bunch of fear mongering

And for someone who is apparently so evolved as to be able to judge the humanity of others, perhaps the eye roll is a bit immature.

[closeupready]

29. Perhaps your mischaracterization of adversaries here as 'The End is Near! Repent!' hysterics

is what's immature. (But then I'm older than most here, so a lot of what gets posted seems immature.)

[prolesunited]

31. No, I was specifically referring to the eye rolling.

Try again.

[BeFree]

26. Unrec

Questioning the motives of individuals while allowing big business to run right the fuck over everybody in pursuit of today's profit is worthy of an unrec.

[prolesunited]

32. Wow, reading WAY too much into this thread

That is not remotely connected to anything I've said or thought.

[BeFree]

33. Whatever

It was worthy of an unrec for many reasons.

What you did do was to make fun of people who have every right to be worried sick.

[prolesunited]

37. Where did I make fun of anyone?

Whatever indeed?

Have at it. I'm done.

[BeFree]

40. Ok, Fair is fair. I ask you:

"why are you wasting your day on DU? "

[closeupready]

41. Try looking at the opening post. Oh, and look! You wrote that, too.

Wow.

[ixion]

27. heh... if the end is TRULY near, what would be the difference?

And why would you care?

:evilgrin:

[walldude]

28. What do you care what they do?

Seems to me you are sitting here wasting your time posting threads about people you so vehemently disagee with that all you can do is sit here like Rush Limbaugh and make fun of people.

To a person like me that seems to be a bigger waste of time than people who are worried about what is going on in Japan and trying to warn people to be prepared.. just in case.

And now I'm wasting my time responding to useless threads. Hey cool you have made an entire thread of time wasters. Congratulations.

[ReturnoftheDjedi]

30. DU is a great source for breaking news. Things show up here much more quickly than CNN, MSNBC, etc.

[Kennah]

34. It's not the end, just The Fourth Turning

[DCKit]

38. I'm trolling for suckers who will sign over all their stuff before Armageddon or Teh Rapture...

whichever comes first.

[BOG PERSON]

39. our skin is grafted to our chairs

not even meals on wheels can help us :(

[terrya]

42. I'd spend my last moments with my family and my partner.

Being with my loved ones. Enjoying the time with them before our last moments on Earth.

No, I wouldn't be on Democratic Underground, that's for damn sure.
