Arkarnus

I’m preparing for the end of the world this Friday, where can I buy cheap but good quality diving equipment?

As title says, I was in the city when I remembered that tomorrow is tsunami day and I would like to be prepared. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

EDIT: Wrong day. The end is nigh.

Everyone that calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Jesus is lord.

Nah, if you survive the flood the earthquake will get you.

Seriously though, if this doesn't happen it is clear physical evidence ofgod supporting gay marriage and should always be quoted as proof

Maybe god is throwing a 600,000 people strong gay pool party and needed a big enough pool?

A tsunami is going to hit Sydney and kill 400000 sinners

Only 400k? Thought there'd be more than that in just the CBD?

The rest have called upon the name of the Lord and are thus saved

It's going to be OK. Gladys will ban tsunamis from NSW to protect us.

Where can I buy a dive helmet that will fit a greyhound?

You will have to tap on and off.

Maybe this whole thing is a Simpsons meme and we’re the ones who are out of touch? Delightfully devilish, doomsayer!

On the back of the signage it's an ad for a new steamed hams restaurant.

Adreno had a sale on the weekend, which I can only assume was in preparation for Thursday. You're too late!

Invest in good gear my dude, it's your life we're talking about here. Not too good though - after the apocalypse you don't want aquatic gangs hunting you down to steal it.

Abyss scuba in Ramsgate is nice, and the people there are super nice. Just got dive certified there recently.

Only issue is an air tank will only last you an hour tops. I believe they offer dive trips on a boat, so maybe you can go on one of those with them when the waves hit and you'll be out in the ocean anyway so no problemo

I'd keep the dive equipment at home and get a good quality crowbar. Debris and muck will make water visibility zero and general elevation past the beaches and Parra river is high enough to handle a 10m+ tsunami.

I just saw a sign on the bridge over Parra Rd at Sydney Uni and cracked up laughing. What’s the deal with this, is it one group who really believe this or are some of them (I.e. uni students) taking the piss?

1
ArkarnusOP•

From what I can gather it is indeed serious, an older gentlemen preaches it for the most part. Just wait until 9pm tomorrow to find out for yourself.

CrayolaS7•

Oh, I get that guy believes it (because it’s going to happen, obviously) but a properly made sign rather than the old dudes cardboard and texta and the fact it was near the uni made me think it might be students joining in for a laugh.

Nah old mate has cash, he’s been putting skywriting up for weeks about it
