We are all doomed.....

Apparently the world is supposed to end on 21 st December this year,,,, according to one interpretation of the Mayan calendar.... I had forgotten all about it in the haze of fibro fog, new meds and the general Christmas bustle. Was reminded today twice by sky tv who are running a week long set of programmes one of disaster films one of supposedly factual theories, to prepare us???? To depress us??? that's all very well but if the world does end I will have missed out on opening the last few doors on my advent calendar and the presents will go to waste..... In vain have I spent the evening with my OH saying we should celebrate Christmas tomorrow to have some time to enjoy ourselves, but no Mr always right refuses to budge on the idea, my real problem if the world does end suddenly we will all be dead and I won,t be able to say.... I told you so.... Hope anyone hasn't got anything planned for the new year :)

Okay I thought the world had ended and I had missed it somehow. There was something in the papers saying it was not going to end and I was relieved as I have already bought hubbys birthday present for that day, he would have to born on the day the world was supposed to end, typical ruddy man. I have never really grasped the concept of the world ending, it evolved yes, it was just fortunate that we found a planet we could actually live on, so I suppose that has to be a good thing. I have planned things for the New Year like stopping smoking, if the world ends I won't have to struggle with that now will I. I have visions of the world spliiting in two down the middle top to bottom and the weight at the top pulling the two segment downwards so we have the rounded bits at the bottom and the top is then flat. Now in theory they should fall side by side. We could get contractors in to start filling the molten core with concrete and start to build it up. As you can see I have given this a lot of thought. Once we are all safe from what lies within we can build on the flat bit thus creating more space for people to live on and in turn we could run the risk of a population boom too. If they fall side by side then we could build bridges betwen the two halves and cross over that way. No, the problems lies as follows:- If the world splits while we are in darkness then we would be in permanent darkness, perfect excuse for sleeping whenever we like. If it splits while we are in daylight.....then I am afraid we will all have to buy blackout blinds!!!!! xxxxx

That's the spirit :) but typical man to have a birthday on that day. I just have one request if the world does indeed split can I be on the other side from my in laws.....I do have a good reason honestly. :)

I have lived through so many supposed end of the Worlds, I think I will make it through this one too! How dare it end before Christmas, how tactless and inappropriate with all my Christmas spending and all the arrangements I've made too! ;) :P

Good point Sandra, can I eat my entire chocolate Advent calendar tonight then, hardly worth saving it all! ;)

My philosophy is that I could get run over by a bus with the stress of the World ending, I'd sooner live and enjoy it! :)

Hmmm is it a terrible thing that I don't think it would be all that bad if it did end? I mean if it ended so would all the bad stuff in it and we wouldn't miss it because we wouldn't be here to miss it either- we would all be pain free!!! Hooray!!!!

Oh well if it does end, at least I won't have to pay the December credit card bill :)

tettridge in reply toMaladjusted

Thats the idea, max all the credit cards you can get before it ends and enjoy yourself.

See if you can get into that place in France that will survive and don't worry about the maxed cards because the card companies will be gone.

One problem, what if it does not end, try explaining that to the credit card companies, problems if it ends and bigger problems if it doesn't, I think the idea of eating all the chocolate is good, just get loads of chocolate and see out the end of the world with a happy (chocolatey) face and if it doesn't end there is Christmas to look forward to with more chocolate - Win Win (apart from the winter flares).

Kindest regards

rushes off on mobility scooter, basket stuffed full of chocolate to see,, hmmm what's the best outfit for the end of the world, I think something casual but smart, so if it doesn't happen I don't look too dressed up and if it does I look presentable for the occasion

Well just to calm the end of the world hysteria ... :P (joking!)

I watched a programme with the Prof Brian Cox about 2 years ago and he looked into the Mayan and their calender and the fact it ends on 21/12/12 and he said we're all gonna be fine ...

The world won't end for another 200 million years

A...nd breathe out ... although on second thoughts, considering all the chocolate that has been consumed recently perhaps not, the world may end with a million buttons all pinging off all at once lmao
