Especially since we have....

Β 

COVID 19, Murder Hornets, Deadly Storms, Violent Riots and now a Supervolcano in Yellowstone.

Β 

The movie 2012 was correct, just several years too early.

Sunday Bloody Sunday is actually about getting your period in church.

Tbf the Yellowstone super volcano was always there and known to scientists for decades now.Β 

I'm sure he's just referring to the news story about there being a swarm of mini-quakes there this past weekend, which though it could be taken as an indication that the volcano might erupt soon, it's still nothing all that out of the ordinary, as the park experiences thousands of these type of quakes every year. Thinking about all that kind of ruins the fun though, so shhhhhhh.

It would be best if it erupted and just ended it all. I also heard another asteroid is flying by soon. Shame it cant just hit us and wipe everything out.

Yes I am essentially Early, sometimes I just want the sun to explode....although lately it is more like all the time.

Nah. It's the fault of everyone since JFK. Because they killed him. They're all in on it. Trump is an outsider.

I didn’t think there would be a day that I actually agreed with Quakers, but here it is.

Me too. Did you see the thing on the Mayan calendar, that they read it wrong and 2020 is actually the end? SMH!!!!

Sigh. You had me going. For a second there I thought maybe he really was coming, but alas... https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/no-the-maya-did-not-predict-the-end-of-the-world-on-21-june-2020

"This time, various "news" venues are repeating a story that scholars got the date wrong, and the actual date is next week, on 21 June. They say that a scientist, Paolo Tagaloguin, tweeted about this. In these tweets (since deleted, they claim), Tagaloguin says:

Following the Julian Calendar, we are technically in 2012… The number of days lost in a year due to the shift into Gregorian Calendar is 11 days… For 268 years using the Gregorian Calendar (1752-2020) times 11 days = 2,948 days. 2,948 days / 365 days (per year) = 8 years.

Here's the thing: This is wrong. The Gregorian calendar does not lose 11 days per year! Basically, the Julian calendar, which was widely used a long time ago, didn't account for leap years very well, so hundreds of years ago countries started switching to the Gregorian calendar, which does a better job (though it's a little complicated). When they did, the calendar had to jump forward a bunch of days to compensate for days missedβ€” usually about 10 or 11 days β€” but it was only done once. Not every year. So the claim that somehow 8 years have been skipped is wrong.

Second, that doesn't matter anyway, because the 21 December 2012 date was converted from the Maya calendar to the Gregorian one in the first place. So there's no reason to even bring the Julian calendar into this. It doesn't make sense."

The only way to convince me it's the end of the world is if I get a call from that job I applied for a while ago and setting a start date. Still waiting for my background to clear.:/
