:smack: Time to give my eyes a rest.
They may be more inclined to run for the deep underground shelters
That’s odd, I coulda sworn the rollover date for the Mayan Long Count was December 23. Which (in 2012) is the fast day of 10 Tevet on the Jewish calendar, commemorating the besiegement of Jerusalem by Babylon in 586 BCE.
That makes it so hard to decide where I want to be to witness the end of the world! I’d love to see a massive volcanic eruption, with glowing magma and huge boulders shot into the sky. Oooh, or a huge ash cloud and pyroclastic flow. But then, if I’m going to die anyway, watching a huge tsunami take out a major city, skyscrapers and all, would be pretty neat.
Good. It’s about time.
It sounds as if it will be painful. How do I manage to get eaten first, and avoid all the horror?
I see you were watching the History Channel last night as well. 
End? What happens when a world ends? Does it explode? Does it vanish? Does life suddenly get removed leaving a barren dustball? What? What happens???
How on earth anyone would be able to discern an ‘end’ on such a specific date boggles the mind.
Of course it had to be a Friday. We don’t even get One More Saturday Night!
I thought they were right last time. Are you telling me that the world actually didn’t end in 2006?
Pssst. Take a sick day. HR won’t care.
chowder it’s best if you read the Daily Mail with a sceptical eye.
Or wipe your arse with it; same difference.
If the World is gonna end, then Godzilla’s gotta be involved.
And I ain’t seen him lately; he ain’t even sent a card.
Not like him…
Since my birthday’s the 21st, does this mean I’m the Antichrist? 
It involves several thousand Vogon ships, an intergalactic expressway,and a guy in his robe whinging about the bulldozers in his yard. Jeeze, no one reads the classics anymore 
WOOT! I don’t even do my Christmas shopping until the 22nd or later. I am going to save a bundle that year.
“It’s the end of the world.”
“Again?”
Well, it’s exactly 100 years, using British/European date styles, before 21/12/2112. For what that’s worth.
Also, it’s the year that Nehemiah Scudder wins the U.S. Presidential election, in the Heinlein Future History timeline. That would, however, be five weeks previous to the End of the World sup[/sup].
The end of the world…again?? Damn it. I just know I’ll have to buy a new outfit. The last end of the world outfit will never fit by then. Damn it!
