It's the end of the world as we kno.....hang about.
It's the 21st here and has been in New Zealand for several hours. Is this a regional apocalypse, or perhaps the Mayan version of April Fools Day?

Come on! You're an illuminatus (judging by your rank title) and you don't know the truth?
You'd better not believe that 'end of the world bulls**t' and get those Christmas stockings ready!
How do I know?
I watch a lot of movies, I know what I’m saying!

I assume they were going by NA timezone when they made that prediction. It will still be the 21st in NZ when it happens anyway

So are you guys telling me you're not already hiding in your apocalypse shelters with your tinned fruit and baked beans?
Yeah... me neither.
People are making end of the world jokes like there's no tomorrow.

The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

Yeah I remember reading about that Mayan prediction. Too bad they couldn't predict their civilization was going to be extinct.bobby 55 wrote:It's the 21st here and has been in New Zealand for several hours. Is this a regional apocalypse, or perhaps the Mayan version of April Fools Day?
I've been hard at work training for the end of the world, aka Zombie Apocalypse... and this ain't it! Better put some more hours into Dead Island I guess just in case the end of the world is running a bit late.
Oh well... if the end is near... it's been nice knowin' ya's all....

The Mayans are not extinct.

I was in Mexico in February. You'll have to tell the tour guide that showed my group and I around at Chichen Itza. He being a local and all and telling us tourists that, he should know you know more than him about the land he grew up in.Jonas wrote:The Mayans are not extinct.

Was he a Mayan?
I just re-read your post and you do specifically say "Mayan civilisation", so you're correct (the word "extinct" threw me for a loop as it's a little weird to use that about a civilisation rather than eg. a people). Just adding that though the Mayan civilisation is no longer much of a civilisation, the Mayans as a people and a culture still exist: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayan
On a side note, the Mayan civilisation crumbled a fair bit of time before the Spanish arrived.
