sure it's real, didn't you watch the documentary on it? IT WAS SO COOL!!! the buildings were like "GRAAAAH!!!" and the plane was all "NEEEEEEEEEEEERAOOOOOOOOOOO" and they were all like "AAAAAAAAAAAH!!!" and then there was big flood that went "BLUUUUUUUUSH!!'" and california was like "OH NOES!!! WE'RE SINKING!!! BLUB BLUB BLUB BLUB, BLUB....BLUB" and then the peoplez got there and there was this big space ship and it BIG and the government was like "FUCK YOU" and then they let them on and there were these meteors that came down like "BRAAAAH" and went "BOOOOOSH" and it was AWESOME!!!!
but anyway, i thought the documentary was very informative if not interesting, it accurately covered an important part of our history, and the history channel and SPIKE tv always do

2012 for the mayan calander is just a roll over, they "predicted" the end of the world, because "world" is just another time measurement for them, like eon. They also predicted, very vaguely, natural disasters which could be interpereted as anything from a super large tide, to a polar shift involving rapid continental shift. I don't buy it, however, the earth, sun and galactic center are supposed to line up on that day. I think that this might cause significantly larger than usual tides. When the earth sun and moon line up, tides are much larger than usual, and the galactic center is incredibly more massive than anything in our solar system, even if it is farther away.
To New Age dumbassess everywhere!
The world will not end on 2012. You are fucking stupid. I won't discourage you from committing mass suicide though because then maybe we wont have to deal with another one of these damn y2k style "emergencies" for a while.
F = GMm/R^2
where
* F is the force of attraction between two objects in newtons (N)
* G is the universal gravitational constant in N-m^2/kg^2
* M and m are the masses of the two objects in kilograms (kg)
* R is the distance in meters (m) between the objects, as measured from their centers of mass
(I would like to credit school-for-champions.com for giving me this equation as I was having trouble remembering it from my Junior year physics class in High School)
Here is the distance of earth from the super massive black hole at the center of the milky way:
Roughly 27,000 lightyears which in kilometers is
1 light year = 9.4605284 × 10^12 kilometers
If you can read through and understand that equation then you will realize that the absolutely enormous distance between the center of the Galaxy and Earth means that the gravitational force is enough to keep the Solar System in orbit around the core which while impressive is not going to cause any form of disaster.

I think it's fake, but wouldn't it be hilarious if an earthquake happened on that day. Not even a big one, just a little earthquake.
This crap is just that... CRAP!
As someone else had already pointed out, the Mayan calendar only has 11 months. So in all technicality, 2012 has already passed for them. People who believe in this feel like they need to have something to believe in, apparently knowing when the end of the world will happen gives people some kind of sense of power.

Poll? No?
Anyway, it's a bunch of fakeness.
If it happens to be real, however, I will try and become friends with John Cusack.

Wow, that's pretty selfish to desire the end of the entire world just because the country you live in, and have no choice of moving from, doesn't quite meet your expectations. On top of that you makes claims that everywhere else is fucked over even though (from the sounds of it) you've never left your "land of doom" to go see for yourself. I'm sorry but even though you claim to hate the way the USA has become you had just made yourself look like a typical American, ignorant of the world stage with very little reasoning. Well done on that part.Space Spoons said:
Hey, you want to know something funny? There were a couple of teenage girls on the bus the other day who were talking about some movie they'd seen on the Internet, and they seemed to think it might be real. Funny, that; I didn't think anybody actually believed in it.
