NATIONAL DAY of APOPHENIA.
May we celebrate this day by seeing patterns everyfuckingwhere.
Really, though, the Coca Cola bear resembles a skull because the advertisers were in a death cult.

Okay. This should be the hymn for today:

I'm wearing a suit that has a snappy pattern on it which was clearly concocted by Masons in their effort to evoke the Stay Puft Apocalypse.
My wife said to me, "This is the only time in our lives when the date is 12/12/12. It's unique."
I replied, "So was yesterday. It will never again in our lives be 12/11/12."
Then she punched me.
Thankfully there are only 12 months, so I never have to worry about the significance of 13/13/13, 14/14/14, etc.
And perhaps once everyone doesn't die next week I won't have to worry about hearing that all the time either.
I just informed facebook that it's actually Sweetmorn The Aftermath 54th, YOLD 3178, and it's no big deal.
...and now my wife wants to punch me again.
I found a pattern of coffee grounds in my morning java.
What does it mean?
MAYAN GODS ARE RETURNING.

Holy shit, I never thought of the meta - it's the end of the ends of the world :lulz:

No, there's one apocalypse left. Church of the Subgenius. World ends on July 5th, 1998.
Isn't there something about Newton predicting the end of the world in 2060?
Yep. Theres also other things too. St. Malachy predicted x amount of popes and the next one peter the roman is supposed to be the last ( at least before rome is destroyed) but note he was irish and probably drunk. Then theres apophis the asteroid. Then theres the... And the... And the...
I would venture a guess that end-of-the-world predictions will continue long after the world actually ends.
Also end of the world is a vague phrase. Do we mean the end of civilization human extinction the extinction of all life on earth or the destruction of the earth. Those are all separate things and human extinction can be a positive thing if it is due to evolving into something better.
I would wager most humans have a rather anthropocentric view and think of the end of humanity as the end of the world. Of course, many of those humans believe that will happen when the magic bearded sky-fairy returns to the earth and starts ripping shit up.
And im glad they do. The bible has if anything given us some awesome heavy metal songs (as long as the band doesnt happen to be particularly christian)

I'd be seething if I was so obviously missing a vowel near the start of my name
Well, he did demand child sacrifices, so it's also possible he was, in a past life, a teacher. Teachers are always angry.
I always figured child sacrifice was the ultimate god status symbol. Like you have this new god turning up at the country club and he's all swagger and "I got mine burning things in effigy and chanting my name" and one of the old fat fucks turns round and blows cigar smoke in his face and says "Hey kid - babies on spikes or GTFO"
