NASA On Full Court Press To Deflate Doomsday Prophecies

coondoggie writes "Insidious unknown planets lurking behind the sun ready to slam into Earth, supernova set to engulf the planet and giant, unseen asteroids screaming toward our globe are all theories espoused across the Internet as to how we will meet our demise on 12/21/2012. Do any of these theories even remotely hold out a scintilla of evidence they could happen? Not even remotely if you look at the material NASA has put out which pretty much debunks any and all of the notions being floated in across the cybersphere."

Thank God...

...we have NASA. I was really beginning to think it was The End.

The amount of stupidity will exceed the swarzchild limit, luckily nothing will escape from here after that.

Idiots

[Mr2cents]

I'm postponing my doomsday-device test until December 22, just so I can laugh at those idiots who believe all that nonsense.

We've got them now!

[mosb1000]

They wouldn't deny it unless it were true!

Remember, only 4 shopping days until the apocalypse.

Epoch Fail

[guttentag]

Eschatology [wikipedia.org] is simply a matter of your particular brand of religion.

Every Unix user knows [wikipedia.org] the world doesn't end until January 18th or 19th, 2038.
Mac users know [forensicswiki.org] the world doesn't end until February 6, 2040, at 6:25:15 a.m.
Windows users know that the world ended at the dawn of the Ballmerzoic Epoch in January 2000.

(I couldn't remember when the Ballmer Epoch began, so I asked Google and somehow got "Did you mean: when did batman take over Microsoft?")

Vogons

[DaveAtFraud]

Of course NASA doesn't know that the Vogons will destroy the Earth on 22 December 2012 to make way for an intergalactic bypass. They missed the notification. The Vogons will miss their originally scheduled date of the 21st because, as usual, the construction project is behind schedule. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Cheers,
Dave

[PopeRatzo]

Smart people know things that dumb people don't?

I hate you arrogant liberals.

I'm gonna start calling Dec 31st....

[vell0cet]

If people are going to call Dec 21 the "Mayan Apocalypse," I'm going to start calling Dec 31 the "Gregorian Apocalypse" ... every year.
