Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsIf you got Raptured, what would your sound effect be?
I'm swithering between "eeeOOOeeeeOOOeeeeOOOOeee" and sparkliness a la Star Trek and "Ba TWOOIIIIING!!" like twanging a ruler on the edge of a desk. Imagine that shooting up into the sky! Wheeee!
The church has seriously missed a publicity goldmine here. Ya know, it would be like the Christianity equivalent of ringtones.
Rapture tones!

(8,556 posts)There's a popping noise that results form the air immediately rushing into the space you just occupied. When you arrive at your destination, there's a little breeze that comes from you displacing the air.
So I'm going to go with a pop

(4,056 posts)They say we're goin' to hell, I say it's a matter of semantics. They call it Fire and Brimstone, I say it's the Eternal BBQ. To them, Satan is Evil incarnate, I figure he just throws one decadent party that just happens to go on forever.
So let's all skinny dip in that Lake of Fire, cuz the sinners are sure a LOT more fun than the sanctimonious tight-assed righteous.

(4,833 posts)elect. I was the kind of kid one warns one's daughter to avoid. As an adult, well, I suppose that I am permitted to live merely to serve as a warning to others.
But if I were raptured, the sound would be one of cosmic flatulence - an epic fart so huge and so sudden that it would rival the sound of a nearby thunderclap.

The TARDIS sound effect
Tarzan yell
The Bloooing sound Mario makes when he jumps
The sound effect when Mario goes into a warp pipe
Sound of 20,000 people chanting Air-ball
air-ball
air-ball
But my final answer is anything by They Might Be Giants. Just Flansburgh noodling on the stylophone would be perfect.
