I love how a misunderstanding becomes a big phenomena, the Mayans never said the end of their calendar would herald the end of the world, it is merely the passage between one tier of the calendar to the other, like when we went from 1999 to 2000, yes the date had a huge religious significance, and being a New Ager I believe and hope that allot of these special dates that pop up around these times will signify a shift where people will become less materialistic and more spiritual, however the idea that the end of the world was to come on the 21 of December 2012 was based on a mis translation done, and forgive me if I have the date wrong, sometimes in the 1950's. The Mayans never said that the world would end in 2012 but some parts of the New Age movement as well as the entertainment industry took this mis translation to heart and hyped it out of all proportions. No if our world will end it is because we slowly kill it with pollution, not due to the end of a 500 years old calendar.

Hag, this was a tongue and cheek thread. to poke fun at this latest "end of the world" craze.

 

 

personally, i was scared it would be super hyped like the Y2k bug, but i'm glad it wasn't. atleast not from what i saw anyways.

 

 

to celebrate surving though, we went to Red lobster, went and saw the Hobbit on fridy. we did a few other things, but i'll spare you the boring details

[Daruya]

I can't remember how many "ends of the world" I have survived . . .

[Smittyphi]

The Mayans must have released a virus because the world didn't end by my sense of smell and hear has been greatly reduced.  I hate getting sick.

Actually they got the date wrong. Christmas day was the real apocalypse. At least here anyway. :p We got a major winter storm and lost power. Still without power, but we're surviving and fighting the winter zombies.

Lost my £20 bet that the world would end, got really good odds too. Oh well, back to work it is.

Well you can always find a good reason to celebrate something with good food and a movie. :P

Its the start of a new Age of Legends! :-P

[Red2111]

Ozzie, are you implying that the DO is set to be freed from his cell at the end of this age

 

edit - so everytime i think of the Myan apocolypse i think of this show i watched one time called Doomsday Preppers. it had this family that totally bought into the "end of world 2012" craze, so much so that they decided to buy loads of crap on credit with differred interest until 2013. like an entire houseload of crap. *smh*

[Ozzie_aiel]

The Dark One is already here, her name is Miley Cyrus. And One Direction are Chosen :-P

[Red2111]

really, i would have pegged the DO as Mickey Mouse tbh.
