Apocalypses

[lucklessforhim]

I have them on the brain today. Right now I'm actually watching a show about seven signs of the apocalypse on the History Channel. One of them is...earthquakes. Now, I'm not generally one to be like "OMG! I SEE THE SIGN." But...Um. Haiti, Chile, I think there was a big one in Indonesia? I'm not saying anything, but...I'm just saying. It's weird

I love you a whole lot. Just so you know.

Aw, love you too. Actually, I can't get Supernatural to work for me right now, so I'm gonna re-read And Far Away! :-)

Don't forget the tsunamis. At least they were able to evacuate and not many people got hurt.

Dude, if the worlds ends in some sort of giant earthquake thing I'm gonna be so disappointed. I've been getting ready for a Zombie Apocalypse for years!

Thanks for the recs, off to read them :D

Well, this particular show was explaining how ALL THESE THINGS were going to happen at once and that would be what did humanity in. I dunno. Personally, I'll be a little miffed if the world ends and I haven't done the things at the top of my bucket list.

Zombies would certainly be more interesting than an earthquake. But the one that always worried me was the SUPER-VOLCANO. I was a paranoid child and I learned that we have one (in Yellowstone National Park) here waaaay too early. Super-Volcanoes are cool, though. I mean, it'd be a crappy way to go, but they only erupt once ever 300,000 years!

On a slightly less morbid note, I hope you enjoy them! I did! Fair warning, they're both fairly long (the first was a Big Bang). But they are SO GOOD. :D

Meh, I don't think the world's gonna end. It'll just break into chaos, zombies and stuff, then instead of having shipper lj comms, we'll have communities on how to deal with radiation sickness. And instead of fan conventions we'll have fan gatherings to lynch the walking dead. Life will go on and all that...

Oh lol, the Super Volcano thing. I used to love the film Dante's Peak as a child still... it made me very glad to not live around any.

I think there was a similar film where Tommy Lee Jones and Anne Heche discovered a secret volcano in the middle of Los Angeles.

That's such a delightful picture you paint! Haha!

Volcano movies are ALWAYS ridiculous. I mean, for some reason it's hard for Hollywood to make them seem realistic and scary at the same time. And, volcanoes are, generally speaking, both of those.

But. You give them something like the Cloverfield concept, and I thought that movie was SUPER SCARY and, oddly enough, very realistic. Weird.
