The only problem with living like it's your last day on Earth is that 99.9% of the time, it won't happen, and you have to deal with the aftermath the following day. "I'm sorry Debbie, I didn't mean it when I said your introvert personality was the reason why I don't take you out on the weekend. No, no. That's nothing to do with the fact I took your sister to the club yesterday. Uh huh. Yes, well, we all said things we regretted yesterday and were probably not true. No! I didn't really sleep with your roommate and your sister. At least not at the same time... Hello? You still there?"
Since the world didn't end and doesn't seem to care for the obvious mistakes, the only to do is move on and learn. Of course, what the human race generally believes is that the past is past. We've no real need to learn from what has happened so many times already. What are the chances it'll happen again? And again? And even after that you got to admit the chances aren't like for it... Unfortunately, much like Pirates of Caribbean, we keep trying to hold onto the chance it'll work. Only difference being is that Disney is exponentially more likely to succeed than say, trying for the fifth time to get a burrito to agree with you.
Well maybe I should just be grateful on this whole issue and start actively enjoying the world now. Speaking of setting sail, while a small fraction of the world was selling their houses and getting rid for the end on nigh, scientists have started plans on surfing on one of Saturn's moons, Titan. Wonder if we'll find any life this time around. Wonder if we'll even be paying attention to it, since it'll take over 15 years for it to occur. For all we know, the world will have ended by that point (not bloody likely). Suppose I should make the most of my limited time, break the old piggy bank, and invest in the new double touch-screen Acer Iconia.
After all, I'll only get the chance to blow my investments so many more times before the world actually DOES end. Might as well be on something cool like this.

Welcome to Rapture
So the world is coming to an end tomorrow, huh? And with your last day here on Earth, I'm sure we've all decided it would be best to browse the internet. All your unnecessary possessions that you spent your whole life collecting will be gone. All of those peers who pressured you into doing things you wouldn't tell a priest about in a confessional will be gone. All of the sinful images you've collected and stored in your computer will be gone.
Eh... can't really say I see a downside to all of this.
Still nonetheless, with the rapture only hours away, we should make good use of this time and appreciate all the little things in life. Such as this clever link involving Pringles. Once you pop you can't stop, or in the case click. Got to hand it to the creators for making such a surefire way to get their viewers attention. With all the time spent clicking on this, you might wonder if you could have better spent it with your loved ones or playing on the PSN before it gets shut down again. Did you hear that? That was the sound of all the PS3 Black Ops players' hearts stopping for a second time this month.
Well go on and enjoy the time we have left! In the off chance the world doesn't end this weekend, you'll at least have an interesting story to tell your friends about how you spent your last few minutes alive, drinking yourself blind, running down your street stark naked, yelling profanities. But that's only in the 1/1,000,000,000 chance that the rapture doesn't come. After all, what are the odds that the guy who predicted the end of the world would be wrong twice?
