Apocalypse 2012: How Will The World End?

First Posted: 12/21/10 04:56 PM ET   Updated: 05/25/11 07:20 PM ET

According to the Mayan calendar, the world will end on December 21, 2012. Considering we only have two years left of life, it is only natural to consider how the world will eventually destroy itself.

What cosmic event will tip destiny over the edge? Will it be Justin Bieber turning 18? Or Sarah Palin becoming president of the United States? Vote on this below!

Sarah Palin becomes President of the United States.

Mostly funny, but Sarah Palin will never become President, so we needn't fear the end of the world or her presidency. Palin is petering out as we speak. Her moment has already had it's shine, and the whole demon-thing that she is, has already become tired.
Everything comes to pass... even Sarah Palin's 15 minutes.

Imagine tens of thousands of firecrackers in a warehouse all connected by computers. In your heart you know that someday, somehow something will go wrong and the firecrackers will go off.

Then imagine that the firecrackers are nuclear weapons. And then ask yourself why you have any reason to feel less afraid of them going off.

How cone 8 of 10 involve Sarah Palin somehow? Oh... never mind.

BTW, Mitch McConnell is the father of all zombies, methinks.

It's the empty, bu-eyes, the "lump of coal" heart and the half-eaten brain that gives it away.

I've actually noted that my calendar on the wall ends on December 31st. Does this mean that My family and home cease to exist at midnight that evening?

By the way, the Mayan calendar does not end in 2012. It is circular and never ends.

But that does not prevent the world from ending if Sarah Palin becomes President. Even the Mayans won't be able to help us if that happens!

The Mayans ran out of chisels so could not continue forward into the 22nd century.

I told them to try Lowe's or Walmart..Did they listen?...Nooooooooo.

Small matter of fact: The Mayan calendar does NOT predict the end of the world in 2012. Instead, 2012 is the date at which one of the large cycles of the Mayan calendar will end and a new one will start. You repeat this idiotic and sensational falsehood as common knowledge. It is instead frequently-repeated but totally incorrect drivel. You might as well say that in predicting the turn of the millenium our calendar predicted the end of the world.

I also find it interesting that people have explicitly stated December 21, 2012 as the "official" Mayan date of the apocalypse. Hm, I didn't realize the Mayan's had a Gregorian calendar and time zones. (Won't it still be December 20th in certain parts of the world? Or is it whoever gets to 21 first wins?)

That photo of Palin got to me thinking....maybe she has had a contact lens stuck in there for a few years, or a lash is bothering her. Maybe when she finally sees someone about it she'll recover her senses and like Professor Irwin Corey (if you remember the great Professor, a drink on me), who would ten minutes into his cat would widen his eyes and begin: "However!"
