I don't think the world will end in 2012. After all, why would it?

Because the Mayans stopped writing their calendar on a specific date. Don't you know? The Mayans are God and know exactly when the world ends. So instead of writing a note, they just stopped writing. PFFT XD Yeah right. Seriously though, I'd stop too if I got to 2000 years.

Mayan writing out calendar: Is this enough? My hand's cramping.
Head Chief Mayan: Yeah, fuck it. That should be enough.

This is what I'm lead to believe. I think that at some point during the Mayan reign, when they were creating the calendar, they stopped writing due to various reasons. Reasons such as invasion, abandonment, or loss of motivation. Or maybe when the entire Mayan population died off, and what was left on the calendar was the final product. I'm not too knowledgeable on old civilizations such as these.

Following up with most people on board here. Mayans either died off before the end of the calendar itself, or they got tired and just picked a day to end it.

My thoughts are, that it was the last day of the mayan culture, and that they'd all be destined to die on that specific day, and let the rest of life live on. Meh. Hooray for not-so-good thoughts.

I saw Twenty-Twelve. Twice. Decent movie. It sure brings the thoughts of 'Oh god. If it happens... Holy hell!' Which, I believe is totally retarded for people to be thinking about/spreading rumors.

That's what people said when they saw Short Circuit. XD
