Harold Camping predicted that the end of the world will be tomorrow, May 21, 2011. But why is everyone laughing?
It's because all sane person take it as a joke.
Well, maybe Harold Camping is the best comedian after all.
Imagine, he made billions of people laugh with a single joke. Not only that, some even bother to spread the word on the internet and made their own spoof about it.
That's how brilliant Mr. Camping is, he even make me post a blog about it.
But why did I make a blog out of it?
Well it's because it brings back memories of the good old days.
Back in 1995, when I was still seven years old, there's already a lot of prediction about the end of the world.
The most popular one at that time was the "year 2000 Armageddon".
Raymond, a guy who is 3 years older than me and our neighbor at that time made his own prediction too. He said that the end of the world will happen in the year 2000 because there will be a clash between Dragon Ball Z and X-men.
I was like "huh?" I can't believe it. Not because it was unbelievable for me as a kid but because he did not include "Street Fighter" which was my favorite fantasy fighters.
So I came home disappointed. Because of that, I grabbed a pencil and a piece of paper and drew the most powerful being on Earth that can rival both the X-men and Dragon Ball Z, Chow-chow Power! A super hero with a triangle-shape face, has drillers on both his shoulders and wears a cape.
He can fly! He's invulnerable and powerful.
I then showed Raymond my drawing. I told him that in year 2000, Chow-chow Power will destroy the X-men, Dragon Ball Z and the world. He was like "huh?"
See? Even kids can make prediction like Harold Camping did.
So tell me, do you believe him?
