"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, right, I didn't get raptured, but I did develop a theory on maybe why all porn is gay porn. It's the cocks! Right? You might be innocently watching porn and accidentally see a cock and, whammo, teh gay1!!1

I don't actually know. No one I know thinks all porn is gay porn. I mean, as far as I know. The subject of porn actually doesn't come up all that often in my evangelical Christian circles. Not as often as pot luck dinners, anyway.

So, is anyone missing any devout Christians today? As yesterday was supposed to be the Rapture?

I'll admit to checking whether my more conservative Christian family members had updated their Facebook status today. They did. So either the Rapture didn't happen or they weren't part of it. Either way, they're probably a tad disappointed.

I've seen numerous cocks, both in porn and in person. None of them made me gay. Watching Rachel Maddow pwn Pat Buchanan may have done so, however.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

If you check the site that was predicting Rapture yesterday, it now says "Fall 2009" instead of "September 21st." So we've been granted a few months reprieve.

How clever of them to vague it up. A suprise rapture is much more fun!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Values of never that exclude probably too much cussing, but really, that's not going to change, and it's really not the same thing.

In my first job, we were hiring an assistant, and my boss came up with what turned out to be a brilliant question: What kind of boss are you looking for? It was brilliant because one of the people were were interviewing said she would never want to work for someone who swears. Oops. Bad fit!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Maybe God will let the Raptured update their Facebook accounts from Heaven....

Loki seems to fail to understand that Devi is dead.serious when she's hissing and growling. He's kind of being a pain in the ass. I'm glad the days she'd beat the shit out of him are gone, but seriously, she gets MAD and he's relentless.

UPS didn't try to deliver my package today because it was "overlooked" at the sorting facility. I don't know if this means that they simply forgot it or if it means that they were having so mch fun kicking it around... of course their offices are closed, so there's noone to catch hell.
