    Default It's the end of the world!

    Or at least, it might be. The date strikes 6/6/06 tomorrow. I personally am unsure, but i am hoping the world does end, as then i'll have an excuse as to why i'm not handing in my Math's GCSE coursework.

    So, what do you think? End of the world tomorrow, or just another day? also, what are you doing for tomorrow? Any special events? Me and a bunch of friends are having a 666 party to celebrate this special event, which will never ever ever ever happen again in human history. I think.

    I hope not, not in the middle of my GCSEs, the time was right about a month ago
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...

    I personally would very much appreciate it if the apocalypse could just wait for a bit. I'm busy.




    By the way, didn't this already happen on 6 june 1006? And won't it happen again on 6 june 3006? (if that date will ever come to pass) And what about the year 666? Or the year 1666? And 2666?

    Somehow I doubt he was being serious

    Anyhow, your second point. Big Rainstorms happen quite a lot. The Hurricanes in America are kind of like rainstorms. Firestorms: explosions in Iraq? Plenty of fire to go 'round there. Famines have been in Africa for a very long time now, not to mention many other rural areas in the world, such as the countryside in China or India. Wars? Iraq and Afghanistan, the East Timor stuff, and now maybe even Iran.

    You sir, have given me a plan. A plan so cunning, you could give it a tail and call it a weasel.

    As I posted in another thread, tomorrow is the National Day of Slayer:
    http://www.nationaldayofslayer.org/
    Official Statement on Participation

    # Listen to Slayer at full blast in your car.
    # Listen to Slayer at full blast in your home.
    # Listen to Slayer at full blast at your place of employment.
    # Listen to Slayer at full blast in any public place you prefer.

    DO NOT use headphones! The objective of this day is for everyone within earshot to understand that it is the National Day of Slayer. National holidays in America aren't just about celebrating; they're about forcing it upon non-participants.

    Taking that participation to a problematic level

    # Stage a "Slay-out." Don't go to work. Listen to Slayer.
    # Have a huge block party that clogs up a street in your neighborhood. Blast Slayer albums all evening. Get police cruisers and helicopters on the scene. Finish with a full-scale riot.
    # Spray paint Slayer logos on churches, synagogues, or cemeteries.
    # Play Slayer covers with your own band (since 99% of your riffs are stolen from Slayer anyway).
    # Kill the neighbor's dog and blame it on Slayer.

    Oh? Is it as cunning as a fox which was formerly professor of cunning at Oxford University but has since moved onto become Secretary-General of Cunning at the United Nations? Care to share with me was to your cunning plan?

    Without a kilt on?

    Anyway, if a compliation of some stupid end of the world facts is what we want, I'll begin:

    That's the Swedish national day. And no I won't do anything special today.
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

    Correct you are. In chinese, 8 sounds like the word for 'good fortune', and 4 sounds like the word for 'die' or 'death'. In Mandarin, 1 sounds like the word for 'have to'. So 11114 would sound like 'got to got to got to got to die'.
