20 funny end-of-the-world tweets — Twitter

My husband just informed me Judgement Day is this Saturday. So, great, another thing I have to fit into my schedule! *throws hands up*

I really don't have time for the world to end this weekend. Plus, the weather is supposed to be crappy. -WendySparrow

Darn diets

With all the 5/21/11 end of the world talk why am I on a diet??? If we make it to 5/22 I'm back on the diet #justanotherexcusetoeatchocolate -bob_page

Oh, Oprah

Worst thing about the end of the world on Saturday? We won't know how OPRAH ends!!! #ApocalypseBummer -Chris_Mitten

No movie?

This must be the worst end of the world thing ever, because they didn't even make a movie about it. -bstkc

Mom = devil

My mom acts like the devil. Judgement day is on her birthday. Coincidence? I think not. -AllstarWKDArmy

It's raining doom

Saturday #may21 forecast: "Doomy with a chance of rapture?" Haha #0chance -NotThatGreg

Harold Camping must surf

Dude really predicted the end of the world on pacific time. Guess he wanted to catch some waves before the rapture -mmmartz

Where's Morgan Freeman?

The only way I would believe in judgment day is if morgan freeman came up to me & told me I was god -GottaLoveCYD

So competitive

The more I think about it, the more I think Harold Camping set this Saturdays "rapture date" just to beat the Mayans. :) -joelrainey

Can I get a discount?

Someone just called up our dealership and asked if we were having a Judgement Day Sale this weekend. -Malachy19

Yay!

The end of the world is on saturday? Well, I guess I don't have to go to tutoring... ;D -RodasDechassa1

Again?

Judgement Day on Saturday. We're all gonna die. Again. -ManWithStuff

Give me food!

Since judgement day is apparently on the 21st I'm just gonna eat everything I've ever wanted to eat on the 20th and then peace out -bestcoastyy

I'll bring the dip

Who wants to have a rapture party this Saturday? I'll make clam dip... -0Snap

Fashion faux pas

Remember everyone, it's gauche to wear white before Judgement Day. -loresjoberg

Just my luck

Apparently Saturday is the #Rapture, and the end of the world as we know it. Will likely also be the day I finally hit #Powerball. -WhatTomThinks

Too much work

As a coder, I don't envy the theologian who had to calculate this Saturday as the end of the world. Time zones, Julian/Gregorian calendars? -topfunky

Party time

What's everyone doing for "Judgement Day"? Any rapture parties I should attend? Will Santa Claus be there too? -ryanpatrickdaly

Looking forward to it

If the rapture happens this Saturday does that mean I get to sleep in? -scottbrown

Gotta prepare

So the world's going to end on Sunday while I'm out of the country? Better pack my electronic thumb and towel. -nzcspaul
