Thread "2012?" in forum "Comic Talk and General Discussion *"

I kinda just regard everything as continually restarting anyway so I don't think it'll make much of a difference. I figure, I'll either still be here and able to continue on or I'll be a big ol' wad of inert carbon. Either way I'll be content with my existent through ignorance or acceptance.

Besides, as plenty of people have already said, there's enough to be doing in the mean time that it's not worth getting too upset about while it's still in the future and can't be affected.

I don't care about doomsday. I live every day the best I can.

Amen, usedbooks. I have the same theory. I have a shirt that has an old Irish blessing on it:

"Dance as if no one were watching,
Sing as if no one were listening,
And live every day as if it were your last."

Also….do y'all remember Y2K? We all thought the world was going to end then, and we all laughed when it didn't. ;)

Forget 2012, we're all going to die this May due to some scientists wanting to make some sort of 'God particle'.

My brother theorizes - I don't exactly know why - that all plastic things will disappear in 2012. My brother is twenty years old.

This doesn't mean I think nothing will happen. But I take the topic too seriously to discuss it in a forum, especially while I cannot be perfectly sure of anything.

(I don't think the world will end. But if it does I won't miss it.)

Lastcall: I'm not sure what you mean by "we all", but I didn't expect the world to end then, and I didn't laugh when it didn't.

The only thing we have to fear from 2012 is all the fuckwits out there who are going to go batshit when the 21st of December hits and decide to vent their frustration the All American way: bullets.

All I"m saying is: avoid public places on that day.

Uh, if we are going to die in 2012 or whatever, when exactly will it happen? Midnight?

Cause if it is, I'm going to Hawaii.

"January 31 Ã¢â‚¬â€ 433 Eros, the second-largest Near Earth Object on record (size 13x13x33 km) is expected to pass Earth at 0.1790 astronomical units (~16.647 Million Miles). NASA studied Eros with the NEAR Shoemaker probe launched February 2000.[3] "

I don't think we're gonna die, but that sounds kind of freaky 0.o

The Mayan callender ends at that year. Maybe since it wasn't even CLOSE to that year yet, they decided not to write up the next year.

I think I've figured it out.
2012 is when the zombie apocalypse occurs.

I just went to Tulum in October, it is a big Mayan Cultural site, they explained that the 2012 marks the end of a cycle.
that is all.

I wont be rattled by this…unless they discover the tenth planet in the next couple of years.

If I remember right, just before they declassified pluto they did happen to find another body out past pluto that they called a planet. I'm not entirely sure, so maybe somebody can find a link or something that talks about it.

I don't care if the world ends in 2012 because I know I'm taking you all with me.

Anyway, in May of this year those Scientists at the Hadron Collidor are going to end up killing us all. Supposedly generating miniature black holes, splicing particles and recreating the 'Big Bang'.

Joy.

The Mayans did make some really good chocolate, so they must be right!

End of the world?

a comet hitting the earth

Deadly-sized meteors pass near earth every day. I haven't died from any of them.

I dont think the end of the world is then, for me its just the year the olimpics comes to england. might be the end of the olimpic world, but not the whole one.

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) currently under construction at CERN is the greatest basic science endeavor in history. Roughly half of the world's particle physicists, 7,000 individuals, make the Collider their workplace. This single-minded group of men and women hails from more than 80 countries. They represent almost every religion and ethnicity on EarthÃ¢â‚¬â€embodying curiosity, cooperation, brilliance and ingenuity on the grandest scale.

curious Science never caused any problems.

just ask the children at Chernobyl…
or Semipalatinsk.

Look how happy these little monkeys are about Curious Science…

Why, they aren't very happy at all.

they did think setting off the first nuclear bomb would cause a chain reaction that would destroy the entire planet…but they tested it anyways…..

cause if they screw up…and it does happen…(a massive planet exploding black hole?).who's sending them to court?
