Yeah, I suppose it's funny to me that even the 'zombie apocalypse' seems more credible to me than the rapture. I suppose if the Xians are right I'm going to hell, but, what the fuck, all my friends will be there.
I was hoping for Triffids, but insanity at the hands of our new Squid Masters could be fun. Wondering what the new Gorton's Fisherman logo will look like…
