DesDownunder Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 So it's 2 minutes after 1AM, which should leave enough time for the end of the world to reveal, at least, its beginning. But no, there's no earthquake, flaring of the sun exploding into a supernova, or an asteroid racing to collide with the Earth. The nearest things we have to a world disaster, apart from the religious bigotry against same sex marriage, are the political corruptions and economic greed of the conservatives forces someone elected. But hey, maybe the Mayan calendar doesn't end until the Earth aligns with the Mayan temple. Please post your experience of the world's end so that we can compile all the moments into a new book called Awesome Endings. Avoid the rush, Apocolypse Now, or not... Hark, what is that bright light on yonder star? Oh nothing to worry about, it's Christmas, or Santa, or maybe it's the sunrise on the 22nd December. Ho hum. Quote Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Please post your experience of the world's end so that we can compile all the moments into a new book called Awesome Endings. Now that's downright ridiculous! Who can publish it? Who can read it? We'll all be in the hereafter where books would be free but there aren't any because everyone communicates through mental telepathy and so stories are read in the authors' minds without need for destroying forests. Don't you know anything? C Quote Link to comment
Chris James Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 There is a lot of humor in this end of the world nonsense, we'll be seeing a lot of it on the late night talk shows come December 22nd. Perhaps the latest is that 30 schools in the state of Michigan have closed two days early because of the prediction. I imagine the good Christian majority who caused that to happen should go take a serious look in the mirror. What utter nonsense. This is after all a pagan Mayan prophecy they are scared of...I have to laugh. Quote Link to comment

Cole Parker Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 If they're going to wait till the day after the prediction to make fun of it, they've no guts at all. Show some spine, man. Make fun of it while it's supposed to be happening. Waiting till afterwards is showing it some respect. C Quote Link to comment
Camy Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 So it's 2 minutes after 1AM, which should leave enough time for the end of the world to reveal, at least, its beginning. It doesn't end until 11:11 UTC. Blimey, and there I was thinking Orangs were smarter than Emus. Happy Solstice, y'all! Quote Link to comment
dude Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 I feel fine! Oh my, Pecs... I don't remember giving anyone permission to film in The Green Room! Quote Link to comment

FreeThinker Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 To celebrate the end of the world tonight at work, I watched the 1964 movie Fail Safe, with Henry Fonda as the President, Larry Hagman as the Russian interpreter, and Walter Matthau as the Henry Kissinger character. I remember having nightmares for days after watching on TV as a kid over the scene where the American Ambassador in Moscow is on the telephone with the President and says, "I hear the planes! I see the light!...." and then the telephone screeches as it melts. Well, Happy Apocalypse Everyone! (I should have watched Strangelove! I've been wondering about my precious bodily fluids.)

DesDownunder Posted December 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Too late, we stopped doing anything years ago. Apathy is our national pastime. We don't even care if others disapprove. No one takes any notice of anything we say or do, anyway, so why should we fake not having an orgasm in order to freak the rest of the world out that the end is not only nigh, but has actually come and gone?

Camy Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Hulloooooo! Still here? As end of the world apocalypses go it was peachy keen but unable to get it up. Oh well. Soon, baby, soon. Quote Link to comment

Lugnutz Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Lug, it all depends if the earthquake caused a tsunami in your pants. *Looks* All good here. Quote Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Des, are you aware the tsunami is an anagram for 'I am nuts'? I just worked that out. Pretty neat, in that it fits Lug perfectly. C Quote Link to comment
DesDownunder Posted December 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Can't hide anything from you can we Cole? I take it you are referring to Lug's nuts? That is priceless...so are his nuts. Quote Link to comment

E.J. Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 Seems a rounding error may mean the end of time (not the end of the world) is December 24, not the 21st. http://abcnews.go.com/International/mayan-myths-end-christmas-eve/story?id=18038862#.UNczzHfhd8F just his opinion of course......

DesDownunder Posted December 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 There is no end, No beginning, There is no time No space or place, Which ends. Life spirals In it's cycling For it's knowing And unknowing It is loving. Quote Link to comment
