I am being serious.
If you would've told someone in the 20s that we'd be talking to each other over the internet they'd laugh you out the door. I'm by no means taking the "end of the world" life changingly serious, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least bit if what is predicted turns out to be true.

I read that 2012 is just a transition into another age or something in the Mayan calender, no more no less. In fact, this has happened before long ago and nothing happened then. I think its just a theory that's perpetuated by people trying to make money.

Sorry mate, that's a terrible analogy. Nobody could predict that there would be an internet in 1920, much as nobody could predict the end of the world to the day 2000 years in advance. And the internet was the more logical of the two.

Mayans were pretty dumb anyways. The year has 365.25 days, not 365.00 days you asshats. Yeah, we'll kick their asses if another World War comes out. Leave it to America to decide the real doomsday.

I was going to say "if we told the mayans of the internet" before. I really do suck at analogies

but you still haven't explained why you believe the mayans had the ability to see the future.

Sorry Sam, but even this wouldn't have made what you said a valid argument.
All I've heard about that day is *supposedly* there will be a more unobstructed path between earth and the center of the galaxy (how I've no idea) which will mean a "significant" increase in gravitational pull (somehow). Due to the fact that crime does tend to increase at full moons when gravitational pull is stronger, having an even "stronger gravitational pull" on that day might mean everyone is just a little more poopy that day than normal.
And you can see how sound I find that argument.
