Apparently online bookies are giving odds for today being the day of revelation - 06/06/06. BetUS.com have short odds of only 10-1 - what's the matter - scared you might have to pay out? Perhaps they should go and read up what happens if the punter is right. Title: Re: Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia Post by: Sky on June 06, 2006, 09:21:30 AM Google 6/6/06.

Title: Re: Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia Post by: Yegolev on June 06, 2006, 11:50:53 AM I have been led to believe that debate begins on HR4752 (http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d109:h.r.04752:) today. I thought the Republicans were the ones pushing for the draft? Next cats and dogs will be living together.

Title: Re: Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia Post by: Yegolev on June 06, 2006, 12:01:20 PM The cats-and-dogs part, or the mandatory service part?
Honestly, I would not have a problem with mandatory service either. Title: Re: Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia Post by: stray on June 06, 2006, 12:17:17 PM Bleh
Title: Re: Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia Post by: Righ on June 06, 2006, 02:00:17 PM So, when America needs the services of a preeminent brain surgeon (for example) and offers them an H1B visa such that they can work here, they are suddenly required to do military service for the US for a term longer than their employment? Might cut down on importing vital specialist skills, don't you think?
Anyhow, that's derailing this whimsy into 'serious' discussion, otherwise known as batshit bullshit.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia&action=history) Really awful pun not intended.Apparently online bookies are giving odds for today being the day of revelation - 06/06/06. BetUS.com have short odds of only 10-1 - what's the matter - scared you might have to pay out? Perhaps they should go and read up what happens if the punter is right. Someone is taking things a little too seriously: Quote I can’t edit the main text, but mark what I add! THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS HEXAKOSIOIHEXEKONTAHEXAPHOBIEA Don’t believe me? Well think of the facts: A: the said "phobia" is in reference to a religious text; ergo it's saying that any fear or uneasiness brought about by something a follower of ANY religion has gained from the doctrines of their faith is a phobia. What this suggest is the equivalent of making a phobia for anyone of the Christian faith who fears the apocalypse, granted there are sects among Christianity that don’t condone the book of Revelations as a literal scroll (Self included) and many ignore the book all together. You can’t make this an irrational fear (or phobia) because there is NO way to prove, or disprove, the rationality of it. B: the afore mentioned "phobia" is not recognized as a legitimate phobia. Plain and simple truth is that the scientific community doesn’t recognize it Here’s a link to the phobia list if you don’t believe me: http://phobialist.com/ This section should be removed from this sight, and its made up articles like this that support every teacher who won’t allow this sight as a resource. Title: Re: Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia Post by: Righ on June 06, 2006, 02:19:41 PM Get this sight out of my site! Or did I mean get this site of my sight? There is no such thing as plain and simple truth! There is only plain and simple untruthiness!
Title: Re: Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia Post by: tazelbain on June 06, 2006, 03:05:28 PM The world didn't end the first 2 6/6/6, I don't have any reason to believe it will end on this one. Especially since we don't know exactly when jesus died. Likely, the real 3rd 6/6/6 has already passed.
But if I don't get to see the 3rd season of Venture Bros. because the world ends, there is going to be hell to pay. Title: Re: Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia Post by: stray on June 07, 2006, 12:00:19 AM [edit] OMG useless.
Nothin' to see here, move along. Title: Re: Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia Post by: Sky on June 07, 2006, 06:24:12 AM I like when religious wackjobs like to assign meaning to random dates. And conveniently toss out the "200" from the date, to boot. OMG END OF DAYS.
I say bring it on (pun intended), rapture these assholes so we can live in peace without these dicks (+2 pts for getting the song reference). |
