Seriously why did they have to start this mess.


Kreepy Kristen the co-worker has been IM'ing me all morning about being afraid to fly "the day the world is ending" She's not kidding, sadly.

    Oh good God.


    I have a hard time believing that a race of people who couldn't even predict their own demise, somehow predicted the end of the world. The calendar just ****ing resets. They said so themselves. FFS.

    I'd rather it be on a Monday so I can at least enjoy my weekend. And since I'm off from Saturday to Wednesday, it can end on Thursday.

    I'm afraid of nutty people who believe anything they are told without even reading about the subject!

    We went to the planetarium last week and the guy giving the presentation said, some Anglo decided that because December 21 is 13-0-0-0-0 on the Mayan Calendar that it's a bad omen and that the world will end.

    Every time I see this topic come up, I can't help but think of The Langoliers by Stephen King. I think I'd rather be in a plane than on the ground, at least until it all blows over...

    If you're talking about my work chair, you're wrong. If you're talking about the chair in my picture (before I changed it) you are probably right since that is my spot at the dinner table :wink:

    On Dec 20, I am going to go to the grocery store and act all shifty while I load up a cart with 20 cases of water bottles and dry food. I'll blend in with all of the other crazies stalking up for the end!

    The Mayans couldn't even see their own demise... how could they predict ours? They suffered from a flawed calendar design. There's only so much room on a round piece of rock...

    The worlds for sure not ending on the 21st. I have a tattoo appt on Jan. 10th. So that obviously doesn't make any sense. :)

    I don't have time for a lengthy response. I've got to get out and buy a helmet.
    Think that'll help?

    It seems if the world is going to end every time a calendar ends, then shouldn't it end every December 31???

    December 21, 2012 is the Mayan equivalent of December 31 on our calendar. It really boggles my mind that people are thiis worked up over New Year's Eve...
