Awww, shucks. I was looking forward to it.


New Mayan Calendar Discovered That Doesn't End in 2012


Click for larger image.


The Xultun find is the first place that all of the cycles have been found tied mathematically together in one place, representing a calendar that stretches more than 7,000 years into the future.

"The ancient Maya predicted the world would continue, that 7,000 years from now, things would be exactly like this," he said.

"We keep looking for endings. The Maya were looking for a guarantee that nothing would change. It's an entirely different mindset."

How predictable that the Illuminati would release disinformation to fool the sheeple in the final hour. Those lizardmen bastards.

I dont generally buy into any predictions made by a society who thought they had to sacrifice people to appease a god

Bullshit. They're simply faking this because people couldn't handle the truth.


Chad's gap used to be a kind of intergalactic rest area. Now that ski patrol blew it up, the aliens are fucking pissed. They want revenge. We're fucking dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooomed!

In the ask theabortionator thread you told me the world wasn't goin to end and that you'd protect us all.

So you lied to me in my great time of need. I now have lost my ability to trust anyone ever again.

It doesn't beat my zombie survival plan. I can't tell you all the details because if there is a zombie outbreak I don't want everyone stealing all my ideas.

i dont know much about mayan scriptures, but there numbers are something like this (the "o" is a filled? dot and the "" looks like a kayak from above)


o = 1
oo = 2
ooo = 3
oooo = 4
= 5

and so on. so from that viewpoint, it looks "kinda mayan".

The Mayan Calendar actually didn't account for leap years. So, in terms.. the world should have ended months ago. HA!

this leap year thing is a hoax too.

http://batdoc.wordpress.com/2012/03/09/flash-traffic-priority-transmission-mayan-calendar-leap-year-hoax/

kinda sad how much horseshit is done with that calendar. like its a random calendar system that was pretty legit for its time and actually some people buy into that crap. sad sad sad.
