There's 1 month left. How are you going to spend it?

[scorptatious]

Same thing I do every month OP, try to take over the world.

Actually I'm probably going to spend it playing Littlebigplanet 2, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, and Pokemon White 2.

 

[Akytalusia]

That's actually untrue, since the mayan calendar is based on the movements of celestial bodies, our calendar has nothing to do with it. However, on the so called 'doomsday' date, the calendar will move into a new baktun. You know when it was the last time that happened? september 18th 1618.

AND OH MY GOD OH MY GOD DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED THAT DAY?!?!?!?!?



Nothing. Nothing at all.

that's still very interesting. so i will be celebrating something special that day. ancient mayan approx 2/5-millennia day.
....
hmm, maybe not. doomsday just rolls off the tongue better. i'll celebrate ancient mayan approx 2/5-millennia day in spirit though. >.>

I have a Doomsday party to go to that night. So, apocalyse-themed bad films, good friends and much drinking. As excuses to go drinking, the fake end of the world is my favourite so far.

Though on the very, VERY slim chance that the world will end that day I guess it could be wise to spend the next month trying to get laid. But I have essays to do

 

[Little Woodsman]

Aren't there supposed to be some pretty spectacular planetary conjunctions then?
Watching those could be cool.
Also gotta feed some of the wild foxes in this area before then, just in case
there really is a shift to a more supernaturally inclined world...

 

[Zantos]

Just trying to find a job in the event that the world doesn't actually end then.

Also pointing out that the world might actually end on the 21st Dec, but it's no more likely than it ending on any other day.

 

[Headdrivehardscrew]

Yeah, well, every day is doomsday to someone or something. It's well overrated.

Basic observations that might help: The supernatural is something even dogs with their subpar and small brains can believe in. I don't think the supernatural is worth much attention.

Also, if the Mayans had been so bloody good at math and whatnot, I take it they would have done something about food shortages, declining numbers in population and other issues big and small that brought about their demise.

Going back to the Mayan nonsense after millenia of warfare, research, inventions, discoveries and a sprinkle of enlightenment sends me on a decidedly misanthropic tangent. If people really are this stupid, let them have the apple sauce, the Kool-Aid, the trip to meet Xenu and friends. Just let them.

 

[Gabanuka]

I have tickets to Les Miserables on the day so I assume I'll be watching that.

Hopefully the world will burn while they sing "I Dreamed a Dream"

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Oh come on OP, you just know that they'll find something else to base some wacky doomsday theory on soon enough after this.

 

[thejackyl]

Boy is there going to egg on your faces if the world actually does end!

What I have trouble comprehending is, why does anyone believe the Mayans are some kind of authority on the subject of apocalypse in the first place?

I'm with this guy. What probably happened was...

A: The last person working on the calender died, and no one who was alive knew what was going on with it.
B: The Mayans figured "None of use are going to be alive in 2012, we may as well stop."

As for what I'll be doing? I have not idea, I don't have my schedule, but I'll probably be working, so I I'll have to deal with all the people who really believe that the world is ending.

 

[Agow95]

I'll be in school annoyingly enough, it's the last day of term, but it's also the day before one of my friend's birthday, so I might buy him a small cake just in case.

 

[FallenTraveler]

I will go about my life like normal. Then, come the "doomsday" I'll go around laughing at the people who believe it will actually happen. I will also buy all their possessions at their garage sales, as someone else has said.

Now, if I actually believed there was going to be an apocalypse, I would have sex, without a condemn... I'm so badass right.

 

[IndomitableSam]

Maybe I'll book it off work. Maybe.

Otherwise, go to work as usual... I work at a government office, so... I guess I'm pretty fucked? There are lots of underground tunnels here, though.

Except they're ripped straight from horror movies. So, yeah. Fucked.

 

[OniaPL]

Gotta get that solo queue diamond In LoL before the world ends. Yup, definitely.

 

[mitchell271]

My semester doesn't end until the 17th cause of exams and most of my time will probably be spent studying and being really loud to escape from the monotony of it all. Especially since my don (the guy in charge of my res section) doesn't care what we do as long as it isn't destructive or overly disruptive. So turning up my amp and hammering out Master of Puppets on my guitar is going to be happening. I'm not being a douche 'cause we have one hour during the day where we don't have to be quiet on campus. We have 23-hours of "quiet time" every day. So being loud as I can for that one hour is going to happen.

 

[aegix drakan_v1legacy]

Spend up until the 14th desperately trying not to fail my university semester. ;_;

After the 14th? I WILL PARTY THE !@#$ OUT. HAVEFUNWITHGIRLFRIENDWRECKITRALPHXCOMRPGSTORYWRITINGWORKONBLOG!!!!

And then on the 21rst, I will be spending the day at home, in case some nut jobs who actually believe in the 2012 apocalypse are running loose wanting to cause trouble.

 

[karloss01]

Well I had a barbecue when that crazy dude Harold Camping tried to do it (4 times), so now I just don't care.
