I was on the bog.
Imagine the indignity if they'd been right.

Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

The amount of panic around this was amazing. Just pumped up lies by the media and others looking to cash in on the idea. If people had actually looked past the media and did a little reading or watching (been loads on the box lately) they would have known that the Mayan people had wrote about dates thousands of years beyond 2012.
The internet is an amazing tool for scaring the world

Thousands flocked to a village in France because it was being said it was the only place that would survive. Businesses which sell air raid shelters/underground bunkers had record high sales. Teachers in different countries have been saying how they couldn't teach today because the children were to scared. Surveys done in different countries showed on average that 1 in 10 people had fears of what would happen on December 21st.thebish wrote:was it?? did you meet or hear anyone who gave the idea even the remotest credence??

On a personal note, not a day has gone by the last month or so without someone on my Facebook/Twitter asking "OMG!! is the world really going to end on December 21st?!"
Might just be me but that looks like a high amount of panic

My younger son (age 20 so older than some on here I guess) was invited to an "End of the World" Party. It was in a 'Secret Nuclear Bunker'. He declined as he didn't know how he'd get back after.

Every day must feel like the "End of the World" if you live in Coppull.
Hope is what keeps us going.
