Warren, Dec. 21, 2012 is the end of an era. Dec. 22, 2012 is the beginning of a new era. The Mayans never predicted any disasters or anything catastrophic. People make up their own BS and cashed in wherever they could including in Hollywood. The world has been ending since my Grandmother was a little girl for one reason or another. Sorry but I'm not phased at all.

The Mayans predicted that, if the world didn't end on Dec. 21st, then there would be a fiscal cliff a week later. They knew how to hedge their bets.

Hale Bop is out of alignment and the new Nikes and Mango Koolaid are still in the works. Doomsday is a No Go, please wait for the proper timing.

All I have to say is damn, you have got to be one stupid mo fo to believe the world 'will end' because a Mayan calendar said so. If someone does, that person should absolutely lock themselves in a survival bunker and do everyone the favor of not coming out, even if they are wrong. :P

What I don't understand is this: If the world is going to end tomorrow, what good is an arc or anything else for that matter going to do? Are we now unable to comprehend the meaning of "the end"??

Yes for sure, and it is too small for any meaningful re-population of the world anyway. I guess the 30 cubit plan was lost.

It better end tomorrow or I'm going to have alot of unhappy family members Christmas morning :)

12% of the US? Really I knew we had some dumbasses, but I never expected the full blown retards to be more than 1% or so.

when dec22 comes and goes,there will be another doomsday date.i think galileo or someone like that had a date.this bs just adds to mans insanity.it subconciously affects you.a dark cloud possibly on the horizon.why cant we come up with something that creates hope or something positive to look foward to.too much fn doom and gloom.

Didn't they call Noah a fool ? Good luck Lu ! Maybe you'll wash up on the west coast of North America like all the debris from Japan.

It would make a lot more sense to just choose one day every year and call it Apocalypse Day. That way we can work it into our busy schedules. We could say our goodbyes, exchange Apocalypse cards, have Apocalypse parties, sing Apocalypse carols, and listen to Apocalypse music for an entire month beforehand.

You all do realize that it's past midnight, December 21st in China, don't you? As it is all over on the other side of the International Date Line. In fact, it's just another Friday morning in Asia, Australia, India, Pacific et. al.

Or, does Mayan Doomsday affect only the Western Hemisphere? Get a grip folks. It's a big planet, and the only thing that you have to fear is ignorance.

its keeps going like a swiss watch. and isnt it great these are happening in our times ?

more great things are gonna happen ..

but sometimes you see better from the bottom of the barrel first

The end of an era and the beginning of a new one.. Maybe Obama will declare martial law and void the US Constitution in an effort to make us safer.. We all know that Communist leaders can be trusted to do whats best for their subjects..

Stupidity knows no bounds. In one school district in Michigan, they shut down schools because of the impending "Apocalypse."

refugeek: We already do have an Apocalypse every year on the older Christian calendar: it's called Advent. Two of the older readings during this time Mt 24:15-44; Mt 3:1-12, are about the end of the world in the Gospel readings (because they are about St. John the Baptist, who talked about the end times), and the beginning of something new in the Old Testament Prophecies. These days people have forgotten Advent, and now sing Christmas Carols up to Christmas (I hate "Jingle Bell Rock"), but immediately after Christmas day they take down all the decorations. Back in the day, those decorations didn't go up until Christmas Eve, and they stayed up until "Twelfth Night," January 6th, and religious and folk carols were heard for those twelve days. More than annual traditions, it makes sense to think about the darkness before the coming of the light.

Now that Christmas starts in September in some stores, people who miss Advent readings have turned to the "Mayan Prophecies" instead.

R Battle: To all prophecies, I think the story of Jonah applies. He warned Ninevah that it would be destroyed, and everybody repented, which meant they repaired their differences and became humble. Then the city was spared, and Jonah became angry that the city was spared because he had gone to all that trouble.

The trouble with prophecies is that the people who go to all the trouble of making them often become angry when the prophecies are not fulfilled. It doesn't make the prophecies wrong; it only means that the world was spared.

I'm not suggesting that people put on "sackcloth and ashes," but being charitable to the homeless is far better morally than digging out a bunker and stocking it with several years of food. What if all those who built survival shelters are the only ones who wouldn't survive a disaster?

Sure, they might avoid this year's disaster, but how about the NASA asteroid flybys that are predicted in the coming years?

This has been the most entertaining "post" of the day! Hale Bop Looners remembered. National Apocalypse Day....brought to you by Pat Robertson and the refugeek! And a big thanks to "aliveinsd" for bringing me to the realization that the world has already ended. Sorry I missed it!

Can someone please remove the comment by Rudigerhck198.. it's an affiliate link to beezid.com.. geez.

Just goes to show that the US doesn't have a monopoly on dumasses.

Besides, the end won't ome until all those doomsdayers figure out they have waisted a huge amount of their life and money on a hole in the ground. They'll eventually go out and try to fulfill their own prophecies.

All this talk about the end of the world ..... Armageddon tired of it.

GA Denver Bill

BOHICA LOL

Denver, you get a rimshot

What's all this talk about apoxonyourlips? In memory of Rosanne Rosannadanna

Dude, just let it go. At this point, it's just sad.

Tyrone. Keep it up. It's like POW's "Never Forget." Sorry Spencer!

Yea, so more people can by into this fact. It's all over folks.

To me that 12% number is scary, but not unbelievable (see "Preppers")!

What's wrong with "preppers"? Are you saying that people who develop a plan to protect their family in the event of a disaster are stupid? It seems to me that I saw a lot of pictures of people eating out of dumpsters after Sandy, because they weren't prepared. You cannot be prepared for every possible disaster, but a little prepping is better than eating garbage, standing in line for gas for 4 days, or dying from dehydration. Or you could just move to....wait @!$%# happens everywhere.

Where do they even get those statistics? I wasn't included and I am in America...

You got that right!! It may not be tomorrow but odds are that something is bound to happen sometime.. The dependant liberals who think the government will take care of everything are so full of the illusion it is sick.. They make fun of people who would have a few months of reserve food and a plan of their own.. The wisdom is that it is far better to have and not use as opposed to not have and need.. These are the same fools who would kill you and take what you have when they are starving.. Since the US government has used propaganda to make Militia a bad word even though the Constitution compels us to be organized as a civilian population.. They are also demonizing firearm owners as all killers or potential killers.. The latest is their snicker campaign against prepared people by calling them hoarders or potential terrorists.. We have some bases covered in the event of many unforeseen events that might interrupt the economy or daily life.. We could go into subsistence mode in a few hours and be OK.. How about you? Still thinking the Communist in chief has it all handled??

It's not good to assume how others think. I'm sure there were plenty of liberals who were prepared. You need to stop seeing each other as liberals and republicans and start seeing each other as Americans.

It's good your prepared for disaster but if it was the actual end of the world there would be nothing you could do. It's called the apocalypse not Hurricane Katrina or Sandy

Well, tomorrow may not be on the agenda, but there are some near orbits of asteroids in the next few decades according to NASA. There was one that they hadn't noticed on Dec. 12th that flew by closer than the moon, but it was only a small one, just enough to level a state or so.

Elizabeth. I am getting the feeling from these "unnoticed" asteroids that we may get an unpleasant suprise before we can successfully destroy the planet on our own......

The end of the play "The Stone Guest," which was made into Mozart's opera "Don Juan," the servant yells, "my wages, my wages," and follows Don Juan to hell to try to get his wages. It was a reference to St. Paul, "The wages of sin is death." A similar reference is in the movie, "The Wages of Fear" about the transport of TNT.

If the world did end tomorrow (and I'm not being serious), you would have a very long vacation, with plenty of time. Who knows though what the Christmas presents would be used for.

The odds of a massive flood are remote but it could happen.. A low speed asteroid of big enough size landing in the Atlantic or Pacific at the right angle could cause a several thousand foot tidal wave that could travel around the planet several times.. A higher speed one could vaporize many square miles of ocean causing an acid rain that would fall around the entire planet for weeks.. I bet obama and his family spend the night either in the bunker under the White House or with one foot on the floor ready to run to the elevator..

Funny Bizzer. As to Pres. Obama: his kids are probably in school in the morning, and he is probably working. You can post from your parents' basement, as usual; if you want to call it a bunker for a little more excitement, that's OK.

No, it will be a day of gnashing teeth when they realize that they will have to pay back their debts.

Can it be true that one in eight in the United States is a certifiable idiot?

Oh it's true. It's called Honey BooBoo's audience.

Hey, look at the percentage of people who believe in a mythical being that will grant them paradise after death if you believe in him in the US. It's not so hard to believe there are a decent percentage of the same type of people who believe this current nonsense.

It's all about FAITH, BELIEF and TOTAL SUSPENSION OF LOGIC.

You can excuse the Chinese and Turkish numbers because their are so many uneducated peasants in those countries, but what is our excuse?

The Chinese have always been a little cheeky. Notice I didn't say chinky? And the Turks? What can be said about the Turks?

You can excuse the Chinese and Turkish numbers because their are so many uneducated peasants in those countries, but what is our excuse?

uneducated peasants.

its not like china and turkey have a monopoly on uneducated peasants.

That's not God, it's Sauron!

I think I read somewhere that we will be dipping below the galactic plane, and it may make our magnetic poles shift. We'll see if the internet is still up and running in the morning.

There is not actually any astrological alignment tomorrow. While the Myans were great astronomers they did not have the technology to know where the exact center of the galaxy was. Or the universe for the matter.

It happens every year on the winter solstice; just happens to coincide, EVERY YEAR. Look at the NASA site, which explains this.

Please do not stare at the sun; even in winter at the lower angle, it will quickly make you blind, and then you will miss out on some very beautiful stuff.

Yet you find time to comment....

Indeed!

if the sane people dont comment sometimes it would be all idiots.That would be allright for some people they wouldnt feel threatened by another opinion.

YES!

AlpineQ. My mom road that Y2K thing into the ground. Her church got her on this whole freak out program with cash stashing and cases of dried spuds in the pantry. My feeling was if i had to live off of dried spuds and "potted meats" i would rather "huck" myself off of the Palisades at SquallyWood as they say in the Alpine Venacular!
