The End is Nigh

The famous 16th Century Prophet Nostradamus predicted that the world will end on 6th June 2006.

B*STARD!!!

That is the day before my birthday and days before the World Cup starts

If you knew it was true, what would you do?

I'd confront a few colleagues i'm not very fond of and tell them what i think, then leave work immediately, withdraw all the money I have and go on a huge bender, including going into a China shop and wrecking it (i've always wanted to do that and Jimmy Saville ignored my letter)

I'd start two threads about it!

It's not by or about Dylan is it?

In all seriousness, I'd try and goand see as many friends and family as I could in the time left... And probably put on some Sigur Ros as a soundtrack to impending doom... But end with REM 'It's The End Of The World...' for sheer comedy value...

Hitch hikers guide to the galaxy, a thursday lunchtime in a pub, 7 minsutes before the Earth is destroyed to make way for a hyperspace bypass.

Assuming Mr Darmus was basing this prediction on the presence of the devil's sort code 06-06-06 in the date, why hasn't the world ended twice since the birth of the likkle baby Jesus?

6th June 0006 and 6th June 1006 should have been the end of it all.

I'm not going to buy my Mum's birthday present until 7th, just in case.

Actually, a lucky escape for Jenson if it did, that's Brit Gp qually day is it not?

I can send back that Pink Rolls Royce I bought for your Birthday then Jem, that'll save a quid or two.

Nostrildumbasses "predictions" are dead easy to spot after the fact....but I offer the following game........

Peruse some charity bookshops and pick up the oldest books on him you can, skip the crap about kenedy and that geezer "Hister"...get right to the "future" and read all the wonderful stuff about stuff that didn't happen in 1985.

One I absolutely remember committing to memory was that NYC would be utterly destroyed by a fire lasting exactly a month in jan 1995. You can bet some numb nuts his shimmied that one around into being a big fire in part of NYC in sept 2001 of course LOL.

Hokum. Bunkum. Humbug. BULLSHIT.

Surely you're the sort who'd do that anyways, end of the world, or no end of the world?!

Or have we been seeing the reserved version of you thus far?!

I'll stand up for myself, but in work i've had to learn to bite my tongue after an incident several years ago where i lost my rag. Now i smile sweetly and just keep taking the tablets.

Imagine being able to say to a shitty customer, "Fuck off cunt and find something real to complain about".

LOL....I'm with Jarvo on this one kiddo.

When someone said "chinese Missy Jem" last week All I could think of was this chick, dressed to the nines in party kit, facing down a tank with a bottle sized glass of red in her hand screaming over the sound of the engine "either get OUT here and dance or FOOK OFF!!!!"

A colleague i used to hate, i am now in awe of. Several years ago he picked up the phone and this woman was ranting and raving at him. He tried to explain it wasn't his problem and that he would find out who should be dealing with and ring her back. She would not let him get a word in edgeways, so after five minutes of holding the phone six inch from his ear, he snapped.

"Madam, do you know who you are talking to?"

To which she replied, "erm, well no."

"Well Fuck off then!"

Excellent!
