This will be an important post-rapture metric. Will traffic volume be reduced in a meaningful way tomorrow?
Yes I know there might be an issue if the reporters, technical staff, and (of least significance) management are also raptured; so that might distort the reportage. Nonetheless, we the Hellbound need answers.

This is the only Rapture I care about.

Has it happened already? I'm still here.

If all the raptured are gone, I guess this is Hell.
That explains the goings-on in America these last several months. The Prince of Darkness is in charge. 😉

In that case, the only thing you have to worry about is the Man from Mars who eats cars and guitars.

I believe I have previously mentioned David J. Smith, an insurance salesman turned evangelist, whose Newswatch magazine radio program ran nights on WKBW AM in the 1990s. Smith and Overcomer Ministries got a large listening area thanks to the nighttime pattern. Smith was earnestly soliciting yearly subscriptions to Newswatch magazine only weeks before the Y2K problem was going to end civilization. 🤔🤨

Sadly, traffic today was shit. I'm beginning to think that these evangelical entrepreneurs might not have the best reality-based judgement.

This was all a big misunderstanding. What they actually said was "The Raptors are coming." They play their first game on October 22nd against Atlanta.

They've been predicting the end of times since Christ was a cowboy.
