I'm sure most of you of heard of this crazy belief that the world will end in 2012, but is it really likely? I mean there seems to be loads of times when the world was "going to end", like in 2000 and 2009. I personally, don't believe it will since they said the same in 2000. But i'm wondering if this kind of talk will stop after 2012, as there seem to be no future dates, when this is "predicted". I hope so, because this "end of the world" talk is plain crazy and it is quite annoying too.

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

2016 sounds evil to me. You heard it hear guys, February 29th 2016 is the end of the world!



Meh, I survived the year 2000 zombie apocalypse, I can survive another one. Got my cricket bat handy.



It'd be kind of cool if the world ended on my birthday, bring forth the apocalypse!



Where's your sense of adventure? What's more exciting that knowing the world is going to end soon? February 29th, 2016 sounds good to me.

I'd like it if the world ended in 2012, cause that would mean that Nintendo won the 7th and 8th console generations

Oh, so you were the inspiration for this?

On topic: No, people will always find new dates to call the end of everything. It happened before and will happen in the future. We are just that dumb.

Actually, it a reference to Zombiu: :-p

Works because we're obsessed with cricket where I live too. ;)



Nope. They'll just come up with their next arbitrary deadline.



The rEVOLution is not being televised

If the Mayans were so special and predicted the end of the world, then they should have predicted their own personal extinction and prepared for the Spanish genocide.

Nah, the Earth will end when the Sun burns itself out or when a asteroid hits.
