"There's this theory that if there were an infinite number of monkeys pecking away at typewriters, they would eventually write the great works of Shakespeare, but thanks to the internet we now know that's not true." -Adam Savage

I subconsciously admit to the fact that it probably won't happen, but superficially I like to believe that it will. For some reason I have this fascination with survivalism and the end of the world. That's why I love games like Fallout so much. It's interesting to see a side of humanity that we've never really been able to see before, even if it is all fictional. And I like to prepare for the apocalypse because 1. It gives me something to do and 2. I just like the feeling of being prepared. So basically, I'm a doomsday prepper that doesn't even believe that doomsday will ever happen in my lifetime.

No, America is dumb. It makes sense to start with the smallest unit and go up to the largest. Not to start with the middle, go to the smallest, and then go to the largest. I'm American, and I'm saying this.

Remember Harold Camping who's May 21st 2011 Doomsday prediction and when it didn't happen he went into hiding?
It shows he's a little coward who didn't want to own up to the fact his doomsday prediction never happened.

You're right, OP, whoever believes that there are 21 months this year is an idiot. That would include you, I think.

Well that and the fact that even if you bet money on the end of the world and win you won't be around to collect it.

The Mayans actually had three calendars: one that was essentially a solar calendar, another that was a religious calendar, and a third calendar that was used for keeping historical records. This third calendar is the only one that's relevant, because this is the one that some people are using to predict the end of the universe.

This long-count calendar isn't a calendar as much as a counting system. You know how we use a base-10 counting system? (10, 100, 1000, 10,000 etc.) The Mayans used a modifed base-20 counting system for keeping track of days - the second cycle went up to 18 rather than 20. So they tracked days in cycles of 20, 360, 7200, 144000, 2880000, etc.

We're coming to the end of one of the 144,000 day cycles. The concept of leap-years is irrelevant to this calendar system, because it's not based on solar years, simply on pure math. I've got no opinion of whether the calculated date of Dec 21, 2012 as the end of the cycle is accurate. But if it is inaccurate, it's for reasons that have nothing to do with leap years.

"Life is constantly fleeting from your grasp even from the very day it's bestowed upon you, but the shadow of death is always there, waiting for its chance to take you away."

"Even though many may not think so, ignorance and innocence are one and the same. The only difference is that one sounds nicer."

"I once knew a man who spent his entire life contemplating where we go after our death....it's a shame he realized it a second too late to tell anyone."


Posted by: Modern DesignerFair warning, arguments about aliens and/or the Mayan doomsday theory will get nowhere with this delusional one. Proceed if you wish.

Because an agency that covered up UFO findings and other things is to be trusted.
