Erm.. the bank wants me to prepay my Visa balance before I incur it.

The evil idiots don`t want just any old amount; they want the EXACT balance that will be at the end of December. Otherwise their world-end accounting cycle will be screwed, they say, and auditors don`t like that. Their common non-voting shares' stock value may lose a couple of percentage point, due to the fact that they might lose some of their ratings points by Poor and Standard, the world trade bank raters.

I hate banks.

You need to wait for your presents. Of the future.

And to add insult to injury, which is Bush`s fault, you also have to wait for the future.

Those industrious capitalist pigs got you by both balls - the one you at when coming, the one you at when going.

Whoa.

A somewhat thorough yet not anal read of this thread reveals that none of us beleives the world will end within two months.

So guess what. We are not the skeptics. we are in fact part of a unified body of constipatory thinkers, who think the world will not end.

The skeptics are those who oppose us. And we all know that the skeptics are always right.

So the more we tell each other, and preach to the choir, that the world will not end, the more we feed the skeptics, and the world WILL end in forty days.

So much for our smart azzes. We wanted to be clever by not being clever, and that made us too clever.

Now the whole cosmos hates us. Can`t blame them, can you? You`d hate yourself too, if you were brining down the entire place (universe), together with the whole skit and scaboodle, only by being clever.

GAAAAAAAAA!!!

Like this?

I at least want one more christmas day out of it. I don't mind dying on boxing day, or any other day after.

AWEsome!!

Yabba dabba doo!

scroll down past the Junk.
You won't be disappointed!

Why is this in the Science Forum, anyway?

Not that much of the other threads here are very close to science, but this one is way off.

Good point!

Who knows, none of us know when the world is going to end. It's been brought up that unless we nuke the hell out of our planet, which I wouldn't put that past anyone considering Iran and North Korea refuse to quit making nukes, and we all know we have nukes laying somewhere.

no.technically the world should have ended 13 months ago because the Mayans didn't account for leap years.....

Because the masses of uneducated dumb dumbs are looking for answers from the scientists who like to think they have all the answers.

I don't think the world is going to end. What has been said is that "time as we know it" will end.

So that means that the way we measure time could change. The "end of days" does not mean the end of the earth. A day has to do with 'time."

Therefore, perhaps there will be earth changes that will change how we measure time.

OMG,it has ended and no one told us about it?

Why don't anyone tells me these things?

The Mayan never predicted the end of the world..only the end of time (as we know it)and a new age being ushered in.

The end of the world is a western/Christian concept...
can't have Jesus without Armageddon.

I hope not I payed my rent for the holidays in advance.
