It's the Rapture tomorrow! What would you do?

The RogueThe Rogue Shipmate
in Heaven
In the Rapture thread in Purgatory there was a brief tangent into this particular subject. I know that if it's a thing it's not going to be tomorrow (or is it?) but if you knew it was how would you spend your last twenty four hours on the planet?

Would you do worthy things or frivolous ones?

    Hm. I would have a swim, eat a good steak dinner, and not assume that I would be one of the "elect".

    I believe it was St. Francis who, when asked what he would do while he was hoeing a row of peas, replied keep on hoeing the peas. I would keep on living my life as I am now. We never know when our own death will come.

    Plan for taking over the post-Rapture world order.

    My answer would be the same as it was on the other thread.

    Being unlikely to be raptured, I would carry on as normal. And frankly it seems to me the Great Tribulation is already in full swing.

    Scope out the two houses on my block that have "In God We Trust - Pray for America" signs out front and decide which one I want to squat in when the current inhabitants are gone. I'll need fortification for when @Caissa comes over the border!

    Go plant a sequoia. because if they told me it was tomorrow, i'd be pretty sure my tree would get the chance to grow up.

    If this were the last night of the world,
    What would I do?
    What would I do that was different,
    Unless it was champagne with you?

    If I'm overdue for a trip to the grocery store, try to find out where the microchip-implantation kiosks are gonna be set up.

    No, I just don’t find pronouncing it “co-burn” intuitive. But when I was a young child, I also thought there must be two states, one called Arkansas (pronounced ar-kansas) and one called “Arkansaw.”

    (I also had trouble with the way syllables are broken up, so I thought “troub•le” and “brok•en” and “syll•ab•les” made more sense than the way they are officially broken up. And until I heard it said out loud, I thought “paladin” obviously rhymed with “Aladdin.”)

    Have you met Worcester, Leicester, Cholmondeley or Milngavie yet?

    Are we all still here? I am going on a long shot and guess yes.

    Unless the Ship is hosting The Wedding Feast Of The Lamb, yes, I'd say we're all still on Earth.

    If the Ship is hosting The Wedding Feast of the Lamb, it is definitely rather less than I was expecting.

    Oh, come on. It's better conversation than what's promised in Revelation 19.
