Subject: Why are people worried about December 21st?

Studies show that men think about sex every 7 seconds. I do my best to eat hotdogs in under 6, just so things don't get weird.

Please allow me to introduce Myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith

Stupid people...stupid people everywhere

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

Because impressionable and naive people.

If you're a zombie and you know it, bite your friends.

The Flood Theory of Deterioration: q(p)=(qi)e^(-p/r)

Where q(p) is the quality of the thread as a function of p posts, (qi) is the inital quality of the first post, p is the amount of posts and r is the e-peen of the original poster.

I think the Mayans may have been a little to busy with the invading conquistadors to continue their calendar, but hey that's just me.

this.

The only problem with that idea is that their calender is complete. It runs in cycles. The end of the thirteenth Baktun is when the calender restarts at the beginning of the first Baktun again.

Also the Maya didn't predict the end of the world would happen when the calender resets. It was supposed to be the end of that age for mankind following it we would entire an age of enlightenment.

All the end of the world crap was thought up by paranoid Christians in the U.S.. The existing Maya were quite confused when they heard about this.

And so God called Moses to come forth but he came fifth and was therefore disqualified.

Because the Mayan Calendar ran out of room.

What if the Mayan calendar ends in 5105 and we've just been reading it upside down?

I don't always ban people but when I do I laugh uncontrollably...that's if I was a Forum Ninja.

Truth is a matter of perception.

The Button

The only thing I'm worried about are the people who think it's going to end.

If anything thing ends the world it will be the people who think "What the hell? We're all going to die in a few hours anyway." Those are the people who are going to end the world.

I'm just mad I missed my chance to make money off of them. There is a guy I saw on TV who was selling space in a luxury bomb shelter he made in a cold war era Pac Bell communications node. These were pretty big facilities out in the middle of nowhere that were to be used if the main switching stations were hit. That way the phones, so long as the lines were intact, would work.

Obviously they aren't used anymore. He bought up a 75,000 foot facility in Nevada for $20,000. He started selling space, and using the money do to the actual building. He sold out in 6 months. He made something like $50 million.

All on idiots that are afraid an ancient calendar predicts the end of the world.

I'm a little worried.

Not because I think it's the end of the world, but of the people that do. I have a feeling a few people may not like school that day...
