Post by: jdcarpe on Fri, 21 December 2012, 08:55:33: Well, it's been almost 4 hours since the world ended. Funny, I don't feel any different. Do you?

Luckily, the Magrathians have buried fossils, etc., so we'll never be able to detect the difference.

But the mice will know!

That's weird, I'm hungry and out of food and my neighbors won't share their ~~brains~~ food with me, no matter how hard I pound at their door.

1. Mayan Fools Day 1 up, 1 down
12/21/12

They sure got us good

The Mayans were the original pranksters. They set up a prank so good, that over 5000 years later, it fooled millions of stupid people into thinking the world was going to end. December 21st 2012, otherwise known as Mayan Fools Day.

Mayan King: Dood check this out, I told our wisemen to make a calendar with the sole purpose of screwing with people thousands of years from now. They will think that the end of the calendar means the end of the world!

Mayan Dood: Haha, that good prank. People in the future so stupid, they believe anything.

Mayan King: Haha, indeed. I'm going to eat your heart now.

I have more gas than usual, but that might just be the taco bell I had for lunch.

Title: Re: Mayan Apocalypse
Post by: quadibloc on Sun, 23 December 2012, 22:37:29: I had a frustrating experience.

I figured that since the ancient Egyptians had a 365-day calendar without leap years, and built pyramids, like the Maya, obviously the conclusion would be that the Mayan calendar must be an imperfect form of the *real* calendar that fortells the cosmic cycles: the calendar of Atlantis!

So clearly all I have to do is find out about the Atlantean long count, and I would know when the end of the world is really supposed to take place.

Well, in my web search for information on the calendar for Atlantis, I finally found one web site which said the best explanation of the Atlantean calendar is contained in a book by Charles Berlitz...

entitled Doomsday: 1999.

Back to the drawing board...
