Cataclysm comes from Greek κατακλυσμός (kataklusmos), "deluge", from κλύζω (kluzo), "wash away, flood", and κατά- (kata-), "down". It refers to the flooding of all Earth, usually by endless rains and rising rivers, as it is told in the story of Noah's Ark in the book of Genesis in the Old Testament.
BTW, stories of great floods are told in almost all ancient civilizations...some that predate the Hebrew texts.

If I’m to play devil’s advocate
(heh) here, one could (Obi Wan voice) from a certain point of view see the allegory of the flood (the cataclysmic event) as a positive as it purged the Earth of the wicked so humanity could make a fresh start. I’m sure that’s what Ruth in her ham fisted way meant.
Still, I didn’t appreciate how she attacked Coker when he rightfully pointed out that usage of the word has evolved and is now understood to mean disaster.
Either way, could any recruit have a “cataclysmic” effect on the program? -

But maybe Ruth has her own definition of that word too. -

Bunch of fucking tards running our udub football sites. I can see why coker was so excited for bdtw. Wouldn’t be hard to corner the market.
You guys are living rent-free in Ruth's head -

The unwillingness to take an ‘L’ also lends credence to the Ruth-Is-Ballz theory, IMO.

shocker.DoogCourics said:It better not be James Smith. He was CB’d to Oregon by two fucking people, care here this weekend, and seems like he might commit. He’s take Jackson’s spot, then add Hector/Covington/Esteen.
That isn’t cataclysmic. Covington committing isn’t cataclysmic. Esteen isn’t. Hector isn’t. Even Latu isn’t.
So this better be fucking Jordan Banks or JTT, or she is purposely tryingto die on a hill just to piss off DDY and Coker since they called her outdrive up subscriptions.
