Left Behind: A Practical Guide to Surviving the Apocalypse


Redmond, WA — So, you've been left behind. Either the dispensationalists were wrong about the eclipse, or you were too busy binge-watching cat videos during the rapture. Fear not! As the world descends into chaos, here's your step-by-step guide to navigating the great tribulation:

1. Acceptance and Denial

First, take a deep breath. You're still here, and that's both a blessing and a curse. Denial is natural. Maybe you're just in a really long line at the celestial DMV, waiting for your turn to ascend. But let's face it: You're stuck on Earth, and the Wi-Fi is terrible.

2. Locate Your Emergency Bunker

Remember that walk-in closet you've been using as a storage dump for old shoes and broken dreams? It's now your panic room. Clear out the clutter, stock up on essentials, and make it cozy. Add some motivational posters like "Hang in There, Left-Behinder!" and "You Survived Y2K; You Can Survive This."

3. Essentials for the Apocalypse

a. Canned Goods and Apocalypse Cuisine

Your diet will consist of canned beans, Spam, and whatever expired condiments you find in the back of the fridge. Get creative! Mix ketchup with mustard and call it "End-of-Days Sauce." Remember, presentation matters even when civilization doesn't.

b. Holy Water and Demon Repellent

Demons are like mosquitoes—annoying, hard to swat, and occasionally possessive. Keep a spray bottle of holy water handy. Spritz it around your panic room to keep evil spirits at bay. If a demon shows up, negotiate. Offer it a Sudoku puzzle or a Sudoku-themed jigsaw puzzle. Demons love Sudoku.

c. Survival Fashion

Say goodbye to your business suits and hello to apocalypse chic. Leather chaps, spiky shoulder pads, and a gas mask (because who knows what's in the air these days). Remember, you're not just surviving; you're making a statement. Fashion-forward meets end-of-the-world backward.

4. Master Post-Apocalyptic Small Talk

When you encounter horsemen of the apocalypse, avoid controversial topics like climate change and whether pineapple belongs on pizza. Instead, try these conversation starters:

- War: "So, War, do you prefer broadswords or battle axes?"
- Famine: "Famine, any tips for growing kale in radioactive soil?"
- Pestilence: "Pestilence, have you tried essential oils for your horse's cough?"

5. Entertainment Options

Staying sane during the tribulation is crucial. Here are some entertainment ideas:

- Apocalypse Karaoke: Sing your heart out to "Highway to Hell" or "I Will Survive." Bonus points if you hit the high notes during seismic tremors.

- End-Times Bingo: Create bingo cards with apocalyptic events. Mark off squares when you spot locust swarms, rivers turning to blood, or reality TV stars becoming world leaders.

- DIY Prophecies: Write your own prophecies. "And lo, the Wi-Fi password shall be 'Armageddon123.'"

In Conclusion

Being left behind isn't the end of the world—well, technically, it is, but you get my point. Embrace your newfound purpose: surviving, snacking, and making awkward small talk with horsemen. And remember, if all else fails, just blame it on the abacus.

Stay tuned for our next article: "How to Turn Water Into Wine (and Other Party Tricks) During the Apocalypse." Cheers, fellow left-behinder! Unless, of course, the Dispensationalists were wrong… again.

Border Patrol Sends Steven Anderson to Armenia Over Misunderstanding

When Your Theological Flex Gets Lost in Translation Original image is Public Domain, courtesy of the United States Department of Homeland Security BORDER PATROL CHECKPOINT, AZ - In a bizarre twist of theological proportions, Pastor Steven Anderson's latest encounter with Border Patrol agents took an unexpected turn when he attempted to evangelize his way through a routine checkpoint. When asked about his citizenship, Anderson reportedly launched into an impromptu sermon, declaring, "I'm a citizen of Heaven, brother! Let me tell you about the Good News!" As the bemused agent tried to detain him, Anderson proclaimed, "You can't detain me! I'm free to believe because I'm Arminian!" The agent, mishearing the theological term, immediately sprang into action, shouting, "Armenian? We've got ourselves an illegal!" Chaos ensued as agents attempted to deport the protesting pastor to Armenia. "I said Arminian, not Armenian!" Anderson...

Pastor Jane's Inappropriate Relationships Spark Cheers of 'Yaaaaasss Queen' Amidst Ecclesiastical Double Standards

Breaking the Stained-Glass Ceiling: Pastor Jane's Scandalous Path to Feminist Icon Status In a groundbreaking moment for ecclesiastical equality, Pastor Jane Doe has become a beacon of feminist empowerment after being caught in a series of inappropriate relationships with male congregants. Her actions have sparked a wave of support, with many hailing her as a "Yaaaaasss Queen" for shattering the stained-glass ceiling. While male pastors have historically faced defrocking for similar indiscretions, Pastor Jane's case has been celebrated as a triumph of modern feminism. "Why should men have all the fun?" quipped one supporter, highlighting the double standards that have long plagued religious institutions. Critics, however, point to biblical texts that traditionally restrict the role of pastor to men and suggest women should remain silent in church. Yet, Pastor Jane's followers argue that these interpretations are outdated and patriarchal. "If she can...

Once Judeo-Christian Nation Watches Debate To Determine Which Immoral Reprobate Best Qualified to Lead

Nation’s Moral Compass Goes Haywire, Formally Resigns Following Debate Philadelphia - In a spectacle that could only be described as a divine comedy, the nation once hailed as a "Judeo-Christian" nation gathered to watch the presidential debate, eager to determine which immoral reprobate would best lead them forward. The candidates, both seasoned in the art of moral ambiguity, took the stage with the confidence of televangelists at a Sunday sermon.   As the candidates took the stage, the audience was treated to a spectacle reminiscent of a reality show, complete with mudslinging and moral gymnastics that would make even the most seasoned circus performer blush. One candidate, known for his "alternative facts," argued passionately that he had the best rallies in the history of political rallies, while another claimed to be “unburdened by the past” [but still current] administration’s numerous international scandals and blunders, promising that to fix everything she h...
