Poll: Damn,2012 is becoming true..Or is it...

[OldRat]

No, it's not going to happen. If you claim it is, I will, with smug certainty that can only come from actually knowing something about any of the usual doomsayer shit, call you an idiot. And I will hold this as a fact, evidenced by insisting TEH AZTECS (who were also known for dumping decapitated heads into their goddamn water sources, which isn't exactly smart) and NOSTRADAMUS HOLY SHIT (who made enough guesses that some of them were bound to be right, and most weren't) somehow knew the exact goddamn date when no modern scientist of any credibility could find evidence of such.

Guess what, people? Bad shit happens all the time in the world. Much of EVERYTHING that happens is, in general, bad for someone. Simply because bad shit will continue to happen, sometimes more noticeably, doesn't mean it's all going to end in some prophetic flash of destruction. I woke up with a boil on my left asscheek today, and I'm not screaming about the end times yet. And neither should you.

Anyhow, the first part of the Hobbit will have already come out, so it's all good anyway.

People have been prophesizing the end of the world since the beginning of the world, or rather the beginning of humanity. I really doubt the world will end in 2012.

 

[Konaerix]

Buddy, I'm sure I'm not Mayan. And I'm sure that this earthquake is not the end of Japan, the country has survived thousands of years and has one of the oldest cultures on the planet. Its going to take much more then an earthquake to kill it and MUCH MUCH more to wipe humanity off the face of the earth.
So no, altough all you hear is shit on the news nowadays, It doesn't mean the end of the world.

 

[mechanixis]

Yes! Yes it is.

Congratulations. You figured it out!

 

[Voration]

'Fear-mongering' is the name for silly predictions of the future

...and the star explosion in 2004 (it really did happen,look in to it),it looks like the end days are coming true!

yes, stars in the universe are being created and destroyed all the time. The only significance to the supernova of this star is that the hubble telescope got pictures. In reality the star blew up millenia ago, its taken that long for the light of the explosion to reach Earth.
Research your facts before trying to back up your arguments.

Although I do think it'd be quite ironic if something did happen next year, bringing on the 'apocalypse,' it would show all us non believers up

 

[Nanaki316]

In December 2012 I'm going to take out a 'Buy now pay nothing till 2013' policy on something kick ass, then I can't be sore if I end up actually having to pay for it, I'll just be happy to be... you know... alive.

 

[moose_man]

To paraphrase John Stewart because I can't remember the exact quote, "The civilization that was NEVER WRONG about a mass human slaughter..." "They did not see Cortes coming. A lot of good people missed that."

If the TIME LORDS told us, I'd be more worried. And they still all died out. BTW, you need spaces after punctuation.

 

[Feralcentaur]

You have succeeded in trolling me good sir, well done. Or if you're serious... No. A natural disaster does not mean that the end times are coming.

 

[Ren3004]

Yes, 2012 is coming true. After December 31st, 2011 should come January 1st, 2012, right?

 

[Hammerlock97]

I'm commander Shepard

 

[Biodeamon]

The world might end next year, just not as the mayans predicted or related to the calendar AT ALL. I've seen the signs, crap is going down out there. Call me crazy if you want but SOMETHING might happen. However i have full confidence the human race will survive whatever major event.

 

[twaddle]

Seriously doubt it. Bad shit has happened all over the world since about 4.5 billion years ago. Unfortunately, as sad and tragic as it is, that's life and we all just have to deal with it.

If you know anything about Jehova's Witnesses, they say that the end of days is coming any moment now (have been saying that for close to 50 years now) and they cite that in the last 100 years or so, a lot more shit is going down is the big reveal. In counter to that, it just seems that way because we now hear about it more with modern technology. Over 200 years ago if the Japan disaster happened, do you think that we in west would know about it? I don't.

In counter to your argument the Jehovah's Witnesses point out this stuff using the bible and what jesus said when the end of days will come in revelation and also apparently the bible predicted the rise and fall of all the world powers back in the days of Nebuchadnezzar. I used to study with them and half my family are baptized with them. They never said any shit about 2012, but they think that it's all gonna end sometime in the next 100 or so years after 1914. They actually try to back up most of their shit with science as opposed to a lot of twits who pull it straight out of their ass. (see their mags called the Awake) I don't believe all of what they say, but even i have to admit with their backup data that they do make some good points if you are into the Christianity thing.

 

[godfist88]

Biased poll. Where is the 'shut up, you uneducated moron" option.

i think that's covered in the "NO! YOU MAD?!" option lol.

OP: NO... just NO. i'm getting sick of all this doomsday theory garbage. theirs always some new theory about how all life is going to end. if your so sure the worlds gonna end just do what you want before it happens. It's a lot better than, spending that time in the fetal position going "3 DAYS, 3 DAYS, 3 DAYS!!!.

a cookie for who ever gets the reference XD.

 

[SuperToaster]

it has something to do with the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar, that ends on 21 december 2012.
Why don't u read the wikipedia page?

[Jake0fTrades]

Odd how a society that can predict the apocalypse several hundred years ahead, lacks the foresight to spot a Spanish ship on the horizon....

 

[Chogg Van Helsing]

The only way that it could end would be if all the paranoid fanatics bring it to an end in an unrelenting storm of stupidity

 

[Jacob Haggarty]

I... reserve judgement. You never can tell.

 

[Gasaraki]

It looks like 2012 is coming true...Why is the earthquwake in Japan,the radiation,and the star explosion in 2004 (it really did happen,look in to it),it looks like the end days are coming true!I really dont know what to think,maybe its just the end of Japan..(then the ancient mayans where Japanese!)What do you think??

Of course, because any disaster indicates the apocalypse. Shit happens all the time, stars explode, the earth quakes, idiots like you post on the internet, etc... Make a new thread when the earth opens up spewing the souls of the damned and the mighty Godkings descend from the sky, maybe then I'll be more inclined to believe silly stories.

By the way: even though my answer is no, I didn't answer your poll because every answer looks like it was written by a five year old with ADHD who just discovered 4Chan and who hasn't yet figured out that you need to add a space after your commas.
Also, your first and third answer are basically the same. LRN2PROOFREAD

 

[Mikkel421427]

Okay, let me say it this way...
The world is not going to end in 2012. It just ain't. Want to know why it ain't?
Because my calendar ends 31st of December, at the end of every single year. And when it ends, I go out and buy a new one.
So, the mayans might have predicted WWII. Hey, know what? I can do that aswell. In around 10 years, there's going to be a war. And you know why their calendar stretched all the way to 2012? Because they were lazy. And stone is a fucking nightmare to cut. So they thought "Know what? Screw it, let's get it over with and make one that will last". The only reason it ends in 2012 was because they died out before they could make a new one.
2012 is a hoax. Period. And i will join Yahtzee in the jamming-forks-into-my-eyes thing if its true.

Mayan Calendar Maker A: Well we've used up all the space on this piece of stone. How far does it go to?
Mayan Calendar Maker B: 2012
Mayan Calendar Maker A: Ah, well we've got plenty of time to add more years. Let's go have some chocolate.

The next day they were wiped out by the Conquistadores xD
