Default Been nice knowing you all END OF THE WORLD THIS SATURDAY!

The way a question is presented changes the idea expressed behind it, obviously the tone, intent, value, purpose of the question. But, I did mean this as a some what joke. But, let me be honest and say that these predictions do make me a little nervous.

I dont have a source but "they" (yes, implying, I don't know who they is) say that the end of the world date has been moved back to this coming Saturday.


The 21st.

The end of the world has been in development hell longer than Duke Nukem Forever and Half Life 2: Episode 3 COMBINED. I've heard so many release dates that I'm not going to believe it's ever coming out until it hits. Granted, interest in this particular event has been extremely high for AGES, but nobody has been able to pull it off, even with major governments often backing the project.

Looks like we have until October until the end end.

Whew!

Sucks about the death and horror, though.

People have been predicting the end of the world for centuries.

SPOILER ALERT: They were wrong every time.

Man, when will these Bible-thumping "apocalypse-mongers" ever learn that "of that day or hour, no one knows, neither the angels in heaven nor the Son, but only the Father"?

You could argue that the end of the world begun with the invention of radio, leading to television, leading to internet, leading to implantation of chips directly into our brains that will malfunction and kill us all.

Everything that has been predicted couldn't even be called the end of the world. Shit, very few would even be the end of the entire ecosystem. Most are just the death of our species and species are wiped out naturally and unnaturally all the time. "Welcome to dying".

There are tonnes of end of the world prophecies, and I know next to nothing about any of them, but even without looking at the arguments, you can know that they will not happen, because of the question "why are the people who would know the most about this doing absolutely nothing about it?"
If 2012 ending is important in Mayan culture, then why don't any of the 7million mayans care in the slightest? If a giant asteroid is going to hit the earth next week, then why haven't astronomers gone on a looting rampage? etc.

Yeah but. The guy did some math. So. You know... he's clearly correct. Never mind the fact that the same guy already predicted the end of the world in the early 90's.

As for me, I'm pretty bummed that the world is going to end before The Walking Dead game and second TV season come out. And I really wanted to see how Assassin's Creed was going to end, darn.
