I'm going to wake up tomorrow and laugh at those that believed in this crap.

How are you guys planning to troll people or make fun of the day in clever manners? Or I guess how are some of you going to prep :)laugh:)?

Does anyone really believe this nonsense?

Funny an ancient civilization didn't add dates on a calendar after 12/21/12 so the world ends?

Funnier they didn't predict the world would end on this date, they simply didn't add dates after this by that count millions of calenders have predicted million of millions of the end of the worlds.

Funnier still the Mayan calendar didn't have any Leap Years, so the actual Mayan calender by days entered ended in April.

My own personal sign of the apocalypse is this flight delay.

Three hours late and counting. Looks like we'll be missing our reservations.

The Mayans sure didn't see Europeans coming.

Granted it was the Aztecs that Cortes first invaded, but yeah, what a story.

For those who do not know the history, they worshiped a being known as Quetzalcoatl and it was long believed that one day Quetzalcoatl would have a second coming and return. Cortes and his army invaded them and they thought that he was Quetzalcoatl so they started bowing and worshiping him. While there were doing that, the army went around slaughtering them.

Learned this in Spanish one year. Epic stuff.

it was mostly disease brought by the Spaniards that devastated them, but Cortes was at fault regardless.
