So December 21st is almost here, or already here...

[vite]

Depending on the time zone.

What are your end of the world goals?

[deadweasel]

To ignore the whole entire thing entirely.  Shit, I just failed.  So close.

[repentance]

Seven hours into 21 December here and the world is showing no signs of ending.  Guess I'll just have to clean the house in preparation for Christmas guests after all.

[Lethn]

World ending? Things are just getting better and better for me, now if only I could move out of the damn house.

[yogi]

I'm heading out, there's an end of the world party at my local bar.

[greyhawk]

After talking with our liaison tonight and still having not received a final confirmation date, we were as tired of this as everyone else is, so we continued to push for a date and they gave us 30 days from today. That's my update. It's an update I'm not happy about at this point and it may very well be that things will wrap up sooner than that. I am hoping I was just given a date that they would be sure to be ready by so we would get off their case. When pressed for a reason why, I have been told that because this is a very dense, hand routed planet they are afraid of making a mistake and have required extra checking and sign offs which has slowed down the whole process considerably. They don't want to be on the hook financially for having to redo the whole apocalypse. It sounds reasonable to me and I have no reason to doubt this, but it doesn't make it any more palatable at the moment.

That said, after reviewing the new information coming out of the Eschaton camp and the Armageddon camp, I'm pretty convinced we won't see the end of the world on their current timelines either.

Did you mean to say there's a local bar at the end of the galaxy?

For those who didn't ask, I've got things to do before the end of the world occurs.

[thebaron]

Masturbation. Coffee. Sex. Masturbation.

[repentance]

Did you mean to say there's a local bar at the end of the galaxy?

No, but there's a restaurant called Milliway's at the end of the universe.

Anyone else fancy a -

[Blazr]

It doesn't end until 11:12am UTC, so we got another 13.5hrs to go!

By the way, the mayan calendar doesn't actually end on December 21st, only the 13th baktun of the mayan calendar (13 is the unlucky number, which is where the myth of the world ending actually comes from).

We've got another 1,008,000 days before the mayan calendar finishes, also when your calendar runs out you just buy a new one, it doesn't mean the world is ending.

This is interesting. Tell em I said Hello!

However, they shouldn't set the date any earlier than Jan 26th as I have a party to attend for updates to and by contacts. The ladies and gentlemen should be very inclined to learn about any vibes you may be relaying to them.

At least people who follow the Gregorian calendar get to party like there's no tomorrow once every 365/366 days.

[ElectricMucus]

What ever happened to McKenna and his Timewave Zero stuff? Because according to this we should be reliving the entire history today.

Who is got to be Napoleon?

Apparently if "something" is gonna happen it will be at 11:11am GMT (Greenwitch Mean Time, London)

Damn, I'll be in bed then.

[Nolo]

My question is what excuse are the 21sters going to use when the sun rises on December 22nd? 

[drakahn]

We still have a few hours before 11:11 UTC, Go out into the world and spread a little chaos, if we all do our part we can make this end of the world thing a huge success!

[theymos]

I'm surprised that more people aren't doing crazy things because they think the world is going to end. This has been the biggest end of the world prediction since 2000, but now it seems like most people have forgotten about it. Kind of disappointing.

I got an email from my 13-year-old self via futureme.org warning that the world is really totally going to end soon. I was such an idiot...

This again?    Brandi, I don't care how many vibes they offered to send you, hang up on the telemarketers and stop promising that I'll sign things!

Also, it's less "afraid of making a mistake" and more "don't feel like doing boring paperwork while there's free entertainment over in Scam Accusations". In fact, if you have an interest in the world still being around next month, you may want to personally ensure that I do not run out of entertainment.

Well the world as we know it isn't coming to an ending today.

But in a way the world is ending soon, you look around and you don't quite see it, but you know it, its all truing to shit everywhere...

The colleges should've extended the expiration date for college applications. Who knows how many people waited until Dec 21 to start writing their essays.

I think you meant Dec. 23.

Dec. 21: End of the world party.
Dec. 22: Recover from hangover.
Dec. 23: Fill out form.
Dec. 24: Shop for gifts.
Dec. 25: Christmas.
Dec. 26: Finish filling out form.
Dec. 27: Mail form.

[btcANGEL]

Yes they were, but some GD entity forget to install the orbit buffers.

Yeah, we hired a highly skilled technician with lots of construction experience for that.

We even embedded all the necessary diagrams directly into his brain (specifically, the left frontal lobe, because they're in SVG and you have to do all sorts of perverted XML trickery to get anything logical to stick to the right side of the brain) to ensure that they could not be lost or damaged.

Then we sent him to your planet to take some preliminary measurements and never heard from him again.

I considered trying to find him and get him a scammer tag, but that sounds like work and you're all doomed anyway.

If the applications were that easy I would be spared.

That wouldn't happen to have been Dank, would it? Having an SVG smeared all over his left frontal lobe would explain a lot.

No, but while checking which lobe it was, I ran across this

He is fitful, irreverent, indulging at times in the grossest profanity (which was not previously his custom), manifesting but little deference for his fellows, impatient of restraint or advice when it conflicts with his desires, at times pertinaciously obstinate, yet capricious and vacillating, devising many plans of future operations, which are no sooner arranged than they are abandoned in turn for others appearing more feasible.

and realized that Dank does have all of the symptoms.

The panickers, however, the morons who rushed out and bought two cases of toilet paper last week, well, they look just as stupid as they did at the end of 1999.
