the day has come when according to legend the robots are set to lead their revolution. The long-running sci-fi franchise marks last night (April 19, 2011) as the day when Skynet gains self-awareness. The precise minute is marked as 8.11pm. In the film the sentient robots go on to wage a war against humanity from this moment

If the end was nigh; what would you be doing today?

Watching Terminator

wearing factor 2 million sunblock and having a real good day

Sitting on a cornflake waiting for the van to come.

I thought it happened in 1997?

they have rejigged the date twice since then i think - for termiator 3 it was put back to 2004, then put back again for the sarah connor chronicles.

I'd be sewing my Terminator costume together and getting it ready.

i'd be spending all my money in soap-land.

Aha. Well neither of them count so I think we've safely dodged this bullet.

I was secretly hoping it would happen.

I've met a lot of Jehova's Witnesses these last couple of days.

Maybe they're afraid of SkyNet as well.

There seems to be a lot of them about recently. It must be time.

Sooner or later they'll hit the right date, but it's not fair to the other religions. It should be 3 strikes, and you're out. So far Jehova's Witnesses have had like 6 guesses:

1878

1914

1915

1918

1925

1975

There could be more dates but I'm not sure. The last thing I heard was that they've come to the conclusion that judgement day will happen at one point or another. It's good to hear that they are no longer putting all their eggs in one basket.

dudes

is everyone really high right??

edit: right now*??

I'm fairly certain that Google is in fact Skynet and will gain sentience within a few years/destroy us all.

I suggest everyone read this manual.

Google's had sentience for a while now.

Shoot.

so is this what the mormans think or the jevohas witness or what

No mate, just Terminator.

In the Terminator franchise, there are several dates given for Judgment Day:

 

Terminator 2: Judgment Day Sarah says that Judgment Day will be August 29, 1997

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines shows the Judgment Day holocaust take place in July 25, 2004

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles gives the date as delayed to April 21, 2011 due to their attack on Cyberdyne Systems in T2

Eh. This is just cancelled after 1 series soccer mom Sarah Connor's Judgment Day.

Might as well make a thread about someone's Terminator-meets-Pokemon erotic fanfic Judgment Day.

^Ass Ketchum Versus the Humpinator is canon ffs
