Anti Doomsday Mr. Bean
I decided to do ao quick image for the Mayan "doomsday" event. One more day until the "end of the world" comes. Here is PC, hiding under her Mr. Bean umbrella, thinking that it will shield her from the apocalypse.
I've read that this "Mayan" doomsday thing is bigger than the turn of the year 2000 with Y2K and the appearance of Jesus. The Mayan's didn't say "Doomsday". They said "The End Of An Era". Mankind is not going anywhere. The Mayans have set up a calendar several times before the last one. The reason why they stopped at this particular one is because: they moved, they were driven out of their territory, they didn't get a chance to make another one. Thats my interpretation. A lot of people think the world is going to end on a particular day. It could be any day. It will never be a set date.
But it shouldn't stop anyone from having fun on those kinds of days. It does show that human beings can have fun together when they think the end of the world will happen on a said day. Another excuse to party! ^_^

truth: the mayans didnt get pushed out or die off.. they just got mad at the goverment and left. And they have other calanders they have found that go out well beyond this 'long count' The ones who are laughing are the Mayans themselves. They said Tourisim has gone up 15x and they have raised there prices too to about 10x there normal amount.. so the only ones who are laughing more then the realisists are the mayan's themselves.
Funny, she is cute but these morons are just looking for an excuse to run around like decapitated chickens screaming: "DOOMED!! We're all doomed!! The rapture is upon us!!" Idiots every last one of them. Revelation/Apocalypse happens daily for some people. very day somebody dies whether that be from old age or some thug with a gun/knife/screwdriver who is just after the change in your pocket so he can get high, the result is the same. Or some nut goes off his rocker and shoots up a public place before offing himself. Yeah, it's kind of cynical on my part but I'm sick and tired of all this talk about the end of the world. It's just not happening people, you can put the tinfoil hats away.
The Mayan calendar only predicts the end of the current baktun (the Mayan equivalent of a millenium), and that's no more surprising than using the Gregorian calendar to predict January 1, 2101, falls on a Saturday. Contemporary Mayans definitely don't believe in this end of world nonsense. If Mayans in any era were to predict what would happen on December 21, it'd be a big party, just like those we had nearly 12 years ago.
In short, this is nothing more than a resurgence of Y2K. It's actually surprisingly common, having gone back at least nearly 5000 years.
