THE WORLD IS ENDING!
 
The 2012 Apocalypse

Real? I don't know. But on December 20th, I'll be the first to be drinking and partying.

The funny thing is, the most referenced, the Mayan Calendar? There is no actual hard evidence that the Mayans predicted the end of the world on that date. Only that the previous creation ended on the same date. Besides, there are calendar dates found that are far beyond the 2012 one.

Nostradamus? That's just silly. "Careful reading" with prophecies means "We're looking for something specific". And with the vauge writing that Nostradamus did, they could have found anything. Really, I bet I could find something from his prophecoes supporting that in the future a living monkey made entirely out of cheese will be born.

Strongest output of solar activity from the sun in 50 years... pretty sure the world didn't end 50 years ago.

Pretty much, someone decided to cash in on the myth that the Mayans said the world would end in 2012, and then people started looking for all the supporting 'evidence' and the potential ways the world could end.

Anyway, I doubt the Universe would decide to wait until the Winter Solstice to end the Earth.

Not since Chemtrails have we been so blessed with people telling us we're all going to die.

Guys, this is important:

The government is taking away out human rights in their never ending thirst for energy sources!

Here's irrefutable video proof! http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=w3qFdbUEq5s

So, we may not even make it to the end of the world, if our government is letting things ooze out of the ground that make this kind of stuff happen. I mean, IT'S NOT JUST AROUND OUR SUN AND MOON.

Ok, listen up... im 23 years old now, as for as long as i can remeber there is always someone telling the world is coming to an end and everybody is going down.

I dont care who is putting all those ideas out there, but if these people run out of Doomsday stuff after 2012, then IM taking everybody down... i mean, enough with the freaking doomsday cock teasing! Do, or dont! Either way, modern society is doomed to an Anti-climatic end, and i'll be damn if im going to put up with that after a whole life of Doomsday-Hype. Give me some, or i'll bring some!

No. I refuse to believe that it is biologically possible to be that stupid and still have a brain that functions well enough to keep you breathing.

I hope the world just dies on Christmas. Then we could make silly jokes about how it was a terrible present. Also, nobody would be expecting so HA!

Ooh yay, time to make fun of nonspecific morons!

The entire Earth is suddenly going to reverse its rotational angular momentum for no reason? Uh, no.

No problem, I'll just get out my Timeboard and surf the Timewave around the Timehole.

Yeah, because no one's invented solar panels, hydroelectric dams, windmills, geothermal plants, tidal power stations, natural gas-burning...

There are several asteroid "close-calls" every year...and how is that related to seed banks? It's not going to hit us.

Let's hope it shifts to the Intelligent Dimension; it's about time.

Even though it is fairly obvious 2012 is no more likely to be the year of our demise than any other year, I'm still crossing my fingers for a zombie apocalypse. After I paid 10 dollars for the survival guide and all the time I've spent reading and preparing, I'll be darned if I'm going to die in not a zombie apocalypse.
