Oh god, today is so unique! Just like every other day in the entire history of time! :sly:

Incidentally, if the world ends, do those islands in the Pacific just on the wrong side of the international date line get to observe the end of the world, but not experience it for 24 hours?

Go there for 20 hours then fly back :dopey:
 
Us who believe that the world won't end should blast the song "It's The End of the World As We Know It" at full volume to mock those who believe it will.
 
I don't think it will, and if predidctions hold true i don't think it will be the "end of the world" predictions but more of the beggining of a new era. Where people are more self aware and think for themselves more. The dawning of the age the age of aquarius. Maybe a revolution. As for total world enhialation... highly doubt it.
 
My outlook calendar at works ends somewhere in 2015, I think. Is the world gonna end then? Nope.

Some Mayan bloke stopping chiseling away at some piece of stone? Not gonna mean a thing. But the whole thing has been debunked, either way.
 
My Facebook status on Friday will be an enter shikari quote. "Go tell all your friends, that this is, the end". Motherships such a great song. :lol:
 
Voted ''I don't know'' because - well how can I know when the world ends?
A global killer asteroid could hit earth tomorrow because -as far as I know- only 40% of space is monitored for objects that could hit earth.
 
Meh. I am just gonna be popping caps in Borderlands 2 on Friday.

Watch people explode violently. That will be nice
:>

If an asteroid was on a collision course with Earth NASA would let us know.

And then they would go to the nearest oil rig and get a crew together.

Nope, they have not the manpower to monitor the entire space around us all the time which they see as several hundred thousands of pictures.
A global killer slipping through NASA's radar is very possible.

They also said they only know about 30% of all the objects floating around in space that could put earth in serious danger. Don't forget that our galaxy is freaking huge and it only needs a rock the size of a cargo ship to do massive damage. For a a global killer a rock with a diameter of 1-2 miles is more than enough. And compared with the size of our galaxy those are mere dust particles.

You do realize that with the vastness of space, even when objects are moving at incredible speeds it'd still take them weeks or months to reach us from even something as close to us as the Asteroid belt? NASA themselves say that they find and track over 90% of potential Near Earth Asteroids over 1km in diameter.

While the galaxy might be huge, it also means that 90% of objects cannot travel fast enough to even be cause for concern within multiple generations. I'd be more worried about events on our planet, such as food, water and energy shortages, and natural disasters.

Nevertheless, an asteroid, meteor or comet that would be classified as a "planet killer" actually has to be a certain size in order to be able to devastate the earth on an apocalyptic level - and, with just four days until the 21st, we would be very aware of it if one was approaching us right now. It would probably be visble by now. They don't just sneak up on us, because ninja asteroids aren't a real thing. I should know; I made up the term just now.

For all their gaps in coverage, NASA would have picked it up eventually.
 
In general, scientists think a strike by anything at least 0.6 miles (1 km) wide could have global consequences, most likely by altering the world's climate for many years to come.

Le click.
 
It's OK, we've had this available since 1979.

We're saved! :dopey:

Edit: looks like it works on UFOs as well. Ace. 👍
 
Somewhere right now, leading world powers and governments are camping in secret underground bunkers awaiting the destruction of the 21st, we are all doomed I tell you
 
I seriously am going to fear for my safety on Friday. Not because I believe the world will end, but because other people do. I fear bad things will happen at my school, I'm my town. I fear for my parents who will be working. What might the radical believers be planning right now. I realize how ridiculous this may seem, and I truly apologize. But some people believe way too strongly in this. I know not what they will/would/could do, but I hope nothing will happen.
 
I'm going to sit in my office, open the blinds, and stare out the window all day. And I'll have a camera ready in case anything of interest happens.
