Who's Ready for an Apocalypse?

2012 is here, ladies & gentlemen, and that can only mean one thing: the alleged end of the world. The Mayan calendar has been used as a way to predict certain things before they've come to pass, and guess what? There are some nutjobs out there who actually believe that 12/21/12 (the last day of the Mayan calendar) will be the end of the world. To these people, I have only one thing to say: You couldn't be anymore wrong, you dumb, dumb, dumbheads.
To be fair, if the world does end, and there are people left, I hope it looks like this.
Now, sure, it makes a great story: this ancient civilization could predict the future and before getting wiped out by the syphilitic white men, they actively predicted that the world would end long after their great civilization had perished. Aww. Isn't that special? They're like The Little Human Sacrificers that could!
Sure, it's from Temple of Doom, set in India, but when you think human sacrifice...
Hogwash. You don't get poop-your-pants scared at the end of every year, thinking "oh no, my calendar's about to run out..." No, that'd be silly. What do you do in that situation? YOU GET A NEW CALENDAR! That's right, folks. That's the answer to the whole 12/21/12-Mayan Apocalypse hoopla. After thousands of years, the Mayan calendar is finally going to run out, but fear not! We can put our faith into a new calendar. Or not. It doesn't matter. We'll still be here on 12/22/12. And, if not, well, nobody'll be around to say "You were wrong, and you, sir, are the dumb, dumb, dumbhead." I'm way more worried about climate change, pole reversals, and the black holes that they're creating in labs in Europe that will totally tear the Earth apart to put much stock in hokey religions & ancient religions.
I bet equestrians are stoked to see the Horsemen.
