2012...end of the world?

When the world was suppose to end like two weeks ago, I said "good, I have a midterm paper due Monday"
That's my same belief on all of this.

I'd be bummed.

I really, really, really, want a zombie apocalypse.

Yeah, the walking dead really made being eaten by a zombie more likeable

As long as we get to hear the new Gaslight Anthem album before we all die next year I'll be happy

personally IF the world has to end...I am pulling for a Stephen King Trademarked end...You know...The Stand...Imagine how cool that would be...rebuilding America...as long as TGA, Bruce, my family,etc survived to help.

Hmm. 2000 was never supposed to be the worlds end, there was the whole 'Millenium Bug' thing where they thought all the electric in the world would crash but that was it as far as I can recall. The world ending this year ('The Rapture') was invented by a 90 year old cultist crackpot, and was rightly ignored by anyone with common sense.

2012 is quite different, as someone else pointed out it's the end of the Mayan calender, it's biblical (supposedly), the world is in meltdown, there is 'nibiru' (google it)...it's kind of a bigger deal, I think.

Will it end? Probably not, but I think it's a bit more concerning then what has come before. Nothing anybody can do about it anyway, so why worry?

p.s. if it doesn't end in 2012 I don't think anybody should ever believe a date given ever again! As long as I can remember it's been 2012.

yeah because we tend to believe everything the mayans did right? i dont understand why people think the world is ending in 2012 simply because the mayan calendar ends then. so what, the mayans had a direct line to "god" if i even believed in such a thing, yeah right. wouldnt the more obvious conclusion be that they simply got fucking tired of writing a calendar so many years into the future? i mean, fuck, if they had gone on past 2012 til the year 3 billion, people would be freaking out that the world will end in 3 billion. although humans will probably simply wear out the place long before then.

The Stand, but with zombies. That's the way to go.
