Or from eating bacon cheese fries...

See, the way I look at it is since all those prophecies were written, I'm sure someone somewhere has looked at them and in their "now" has said they would happen at that time. Time and all things go through cycles. I don't see what part of that is so difficult to understand. My personal favorite chuckle I get is that these people who claim to be such devout Christians (emphasis on followers of Christ) and who take everything he said to be the truth and worth following seem to forget something he said when they predict these end times disasters...that Christ said "no one knows the day or the hour when the Son of Man cometh [sic]". In other words, they seem to be totally blowing off the fact that the very person who they claim to follow told them they wouldn't know when the judgment day would come, yet they are like, "Oh, no, we figured it out!" and everyone's answers (though completely different) are the right ones, the only ones.
I had to put up with being terrorized by this as a child. My parents were going to a heavy-duty Pentecostal church for a while and prior to that they were Catholic (so you probably can understand part of the reason why I've had to untangle a lot spiritually over my lifetime). I find it interesting because they don't even go to church now.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like poking these people and saying "DUHHHH...HELLO?"
