"Tensions are rising in Oizumi, where cult members have constructed dome-shaped structures, which they claim to be resistant to any kind of natural disaster, in preparations for doomsday."

Dome shaped structures which are resistant to Armaggeddon? Hmm, maybe they should move in with Eskimos in Alaska. Scratch that, then these nuts might apply for citizenship.

So long and thanks for all the fish.

Earlier, the members of the strange cult...

As opposed to your everyday run-of-the-mill ordinary cult. I call Redundancy! Redundancy!

The mechanic told me I blew a seal....I said let's leave my personal life out of this m'kay ?

I am the Walrus! Coo coo ka-ju!

OF COURSE IT'S OUR SAVIOR!!! WHY CAN'T YOU SEE IT?!! WE ARE ALL DOOMED...DOOOMED HAHAHAHA!!!!

This whole thing smells fishy

So anyway, a seal walks into a club...

i belive you are stupid

ChewbaccaJones,

Behold Lord Cruise, a Thetan approaches!

Omegacerberus,

Mmmmmm tastlessly delicious!!!

"If I'm at a meeting, and the speaker says 'My name is Bo, and this is Peep,' guess what? *clap* End of meeting! We have nothing more to talk about! Unless... there's sheep. And if Peep is dressed accordingly, then I might stay for quite some time."

I love those wacky fringe groups that constantly declare Armeggedon on a whim. Keep it up you wacky fringe groups- makes me seem OK ( and "I'm pretty farking far from OK".)

/couldnt resisit the Marcellus Wallace quote.

"I'm Brian and my wife here is Brian too"

Robotninja,"If I'm at a meeting, and the speaker says 'My name is Bo..."

Common occurance around here, since my manager's name is Bo.

"When asked why they think saving the stray seal will save humanity, a cultist replied, "Well, we're never gonna survive unless we get a little crazy."

Well, if a doomsday cult says it, it's good enough for me.

That's why I cut off my testacles.

Would it be sacrilegious to make the savior balance a ball on his nose?

I've been predicting seal-induced armaggeddon for years. Yawn!!

This is so silly. Everyone knows that the savior of humanity is going to be a stray chihuahua. Duh.

And tell me stray seal
How does it feel
To be so wise
To see through eyes
That only see what's real
Tell me stray seal

Mutant fish bird koala?

ok... My question is,
"What does one do with his/her life after commiting to this dooms day BS for so long, and then nothing happens on the predicted day?"

/my answer... they commit suicide b/c they can't stand the shame and ridicule

*smiles*

Our savior?

Why does the page expire when I hit the back button?

Crap I was going out that night. Guess I'll stay in and watch Armageddon instead.
And with regards to no more ridiculous at least christians don't believe that a stray seal who presumably flubbed his way into a stream from somewhere else is the savior of mankind.

Forget it... it was me.

Skinink wins.

We're never gonna survive...unless we get a little crazy.

Ok ALOT crazy, wackos.

"Watch ye; for ye know not when the Master swimmeth up to you with his foreflippers"

Why do people call the end of the world armaggeddon? It's not even accurate to say the Christian bible calls the end of the world armaggeddon.

Maybe this makes me a word nazi, but Armageddon is the greek pronunciation of megido, which is a -place- not an event, or even a time. It's the place where the final battle between good and evil will be raged, not the final battle. NOT the end of the world.

You know, this isn't the first cult to claim supreme nastiness on May 15th. The Planet X/ Nimbiru folks think that's their day too. As long as it happens after I see Matrix:Reloaded, I'm ok with whichever.

well DUH

...certain destruction on May 15 -- the day when a massive earthquake triggered by the tilting of the Earth's axis will devastated the planet, according to cultist publications.

Oh no, don't tell me they're part of the damn Zetatalk Planet X ninnies that have been polluting sci.astro.amateur for the past 5+ years!

Lord_Dubu:

They might have used that place because there were less places back then. They might not have had a better candidate.

Yes, Lord_Dubu, wordnazi. It's a literary device, whereby you refer to the whole - oh, never mind. You should already know this...

...cult members have constructed dome-shaped structures, which they claim to be resistant to any kind of natural disaster...

Maybe they should be following a stray turtle?

I thought we had to worry about the seventh seal.

But obviously to get into heaven you need to get the Seal of Approval first...

May 15th ?!?!?!? Well i better get to see the Matrix before this damn earthquake hits

Is now a good time to add that extra tentacle?

They're idiots!

Everyone knows that the Mice and Dolphins are the ones we should be worshipping.

End of the world on the 15th ?...Whew....I have enough clean boxers to last me.

So I guess I can leave the alarm clock off the night of the 14th, cause no need for me to go to work if the world is going to end......hooray!!!

"...promising to vacate the area no later than 3 a.m. Wednesday, before their predicted end of the world on May 15."
isn't that when the new Matrix flick comes out? hmmm...
