    December 21 2012 is coming up fast.

    Tell me, what do you think will most likely happen when it hits?

    I think absolutely nothing in terms of ecological disasters or "shit falling from space".
    Worst thing that will happen is all the bozos of this planet freak out and cause massive pandemonium.
    All that happens on the date is the Mayan calender ends and no longer shows more days after that.
    How is THAT a basis for "HOLY-FUCKING-SHIT-THE-WORLD-IS-GONNA-END!!!"?

    actually the mayan calendar isn't ending it's just flippin to another cycle.

    20 december 2012 in our calendar is 12.9.9.9.9.9 in mayan
    21 december 2012 in our calendar is 13.0.0.0.0.0 in mayan

    That is all, although 13 is a peculiar number. In some cultures believed to be bad luck. On the other hand, the fruit of life (from the sacred geometry) is composed out of 13 circles. And if there is something like "the illuminati" (the bad masons), this is a date they will rejoice on and make rituals to satan.

    Anyway, I think nothing special is gonna happen on this day(well maybe except some major LHC tests), there will be some changes to the world to come, like there have always been lol.

    People think that the mayans predicted the end of days. It doesn't run out of days... just runs out, and they make a new one.
    If we applied this whole idea to our calendar system, everyone would be flipping shits in December every year, when the calendar runs out. Then we pin up a new one and it passes by.

    And the memes. Oh god they'll be plastering the web.


    Remeber Y2K? That was hilarious. I have left over motherboard boxes, from big name companies that state "Y2K certified". Ha.

    EDIT- ^ you got to it first.

    Karl Pilkington sums up the importance of the "end of the world" in this.

    How many "Doomsday" predictions have we had already? How many actually came true? Yeah...

    Ha, I have an old Compaq computer with a factory sticker that says that.

    I was kinda nervous actually about this prediction for a while... i believe this 2012 prediction shit, is mostly a marketing scheme tbh.

    Marketing for WHAT exactly? Mayan culture?

    Oh, that reminds me, there's an item on my eBay watch list that ends in around 12 hours that I need to bid on.

    It's actually even less impressive than that, when they Mayan long count calendar ends... They move on to a new long-count calender. It would be like the world ending because I'm on the last page of my Futurama 2012 calendar.

    Just everything...North america is going through some serious economical issues right now. For example: OMFG the world is gonna end lets all goto the grocery and spend a couple years of product to last... taxes from that = Marketing Scheme/Economy Recovery. Think about it just a little.

    Nothing will happen and anyone who believes it will is stupid. I'm sorry to be rude but it's true. Fuck all will happen.

    The Mayan 2012 apocalypse is a government conspiracy? Come on, give the stupid, panicky average man a little credit! People are afraid of the possible end of the world and are looking for anything that indicates when that might happen (hello Y2K!). The calendar of an ancient civilization ending is an good of an excuse as any. Your government wishes it could come up with a clever scheme like a fake apocalypse in order to sell condiments and canned goods ;) Plus, in order for it to work, they would have to have great faith that the average American citizen is foolish and gullible enough to... Oh. ;)

    The only thing happening friday is I upload my new show on You Tube.

    The Mayan calenders never accounted for this thing called new years. So the world should have already ended.

    It's just a convenient date to spell doom all the numbers save for a zero match, and it just so happens to be the winter solstice.

    But me, I'm getting my aluminum pole out, Sunday is Festivus.
