End of the World?

Yes We Can!! Obama Wins!
We all know it is going to happen in some shape form or fashion, whether it be caused by man or Natural or Religious.

I'm just asking, when and how do you think the world will end.

Oh and does anyone believe in that Mayan calendar thing? I kind of do but I kind of don't.
 
Meh. The world will end when it wants to. Although, I'd say humanity had about fifty year. A hundred if we're lucky. (We're killing the earth, and the earth is killing us. Therefore, we must kill the earth before it kills us! [/joke])
 
Technically speaking, the world will probably end when the sun supernovas, or if some lucky and really big asteroid happens to hit or something. But there's no telling if humans or anything else will even still be around by that time.

I personally think we shouldn't worry about things like that and focus on things that are a little more within our control. All of the previous predictions of the end of the world have been wrong, and I don't think this Mayan Calendar thing that everyone's so worked up about will be any different. :\
 
Ohh well can I change that then?

What I mean was by end of the world for humans.

I just hope whatever it is, we have some warning so I can finish my tasks and that it is as quick and painless as possible. I also found out that if a meteorite was large enough to mess up the earth that pretty much anyone in the thousand foot radius of the meteorite would instantly burn and die. Meaning that most of the dinosaurs were probabaly dead before the meteorite even hit.
 
Never saw the point in worrying about when they world will end. I don't give a fuck if it's going to end next week, or in 500 bazillion years, I'm just going to enjoy the rest of my life while I still can and not worry about trivial shit. :I
 
It won't end in our life times. I would not trust some Mayan time line if I was you. Because they had some pretty damn weird beliefs about sacrificing people to the gods to make the gods happy. And some cave(I forgot it's name) was a gate to the underworld. If I don't believe all the mumbo jumbo I'm not going to nitpick.

The world will end when it wants to.
 
Meh, too depressing to think about.

But....I have a theory.

First, the sky will cloud up all over the earth, then every giraffe on the earth will shrink to the size of a tack, and every tack will grow to the size of a giraffe. Then, a hole will open up in the Pacific Ocean and a giant monster will come out and destroy all of east Asia, before being killed by an old dude with a Machete. Then, a massive earthuake will submerge all of South America and Africa in water. After that, there will be a massive explosion in a power plant, taking out all of America. After that, a meteor will destroy all of earth, and only the Icelandic will survive (Because Iceland is cool).
 
hey guys the Mayan calendar did not say the world would end. it said the world would end as we know it, but that just meant that we would be entering another cycle (I am foggy on what precisely this meant, other than it happened ever 5,125 years or thereabouts, but I am fairly sure it did not mean "the world will end in fire (or ice)".)

as for the end of the world? call me crazy, but I have confidence that the human race, barring an extinction level event a la K-T, will survive for thousands of years to come.

eta: unless the swiss fuck us up this august 8)
 
The world will end when the sun expands to engulf it, vaporizing our precious ball of rock. However, it will cease to be habitable a bit earlier. We'll have spread out or gone extinct.
 
If the world seriously ends in 2012 I will fuck someone's shit up. It's a year after I get out of school, and it would suck Cheney balls if I spent my entire life learning things I'll never need because I'll be dead ):<

Unless death is like real life and you continue it once you die, which would be pretty cool. Then I could go to Art School and to Mime School. I've always wanted to go visit a mime school.
 
I'm not too fussed, to be honest. I have a sneaking feeling it may be sooner rather than later and nucelar weapons may be involved, but when it happens, it'll happen so there's not a lot of point worrying about it.

My advice: if anyone ever tells you the world will end, tell them they're stupid and wrong. That way you get to laugh at them if they are wrong, and you'll both be too dead to care if they're right :D
 
I think that humans will stick around for quite a while yet... several thousand years, perhaps. I could be wrong, but, I'm not really too fussed about "the end of the world" either.
 
Millions of evil mutant Bidoofs will fall down upon us from the heavens. The Bidoofs will all have an extreme hunger for human flesh, and a thirst for blood. They reproduce surprisingly fast, and each one finds a human to kill and eat. Eventually, the remaining humans will discover how to destroy them, but the damage will have been severe. No more than 10,000 people will be left alive. Then, a giant Bidoof comes and crushes everybody in the Eastern hemisphere. 4,000 people will be left, all of them in the Americas. Each continent will blame the other for the Bidoof invasion, and they'll end up destroying each other, but 1,000 people will have opposed the war, and secretly fled to Asia. They will rebuild, and no major screw-ups will happen, so then the population will increase eventually to 3,000, but then a Bidoof comes, breathes fire on the ice caps, and flies off, causing the world to flood. The 100 smartest and most evil people would have known this would happen, and secretly made a rocket to fly to Mars when it happened. Once they get to Mars, they find out that it's the home planet of thousands of identical Cloverfield monsters. 50 of the people will be killed, while the other 50 will have been even smarter and more evil, and have brought nuclear weapons to destroy the Cloverfield monsters, which they did. The 50 left would increase their numbers to 63, but all the babies end up being Were-Bidoofs for some reason, and at midnight on a night when there's a full moon thirteen years after their birth, they all kill their parents. Then they turn back into humans, but all the food will have been eaten by the fattest, so they murder him. The twelve remaining kids slowly starve to death, and then the most evil one of all kills every other one and eats them, but then has a heart attack and dies. Just after this, a group of friendly Martians from the other side of Mars will come up to offer shelter, but everyone had just died. All the Martians become depressed and kill themselves.

That, or something like this.
