Best of Wishes met by Paranoid Despair!

Whether it's obvious or not, Christmas is literally around the corner! What better to celebrate the season with... Mayan celebrations?

I am paranoid, and so are so many people. We believe that everything is and/or can be out there to get you, and all you have to do is to go out of line before a mysterious troupe featuring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones take me away to some unknown location to be tested on for human-to-alien DNA splicing (not all paranoid people believe this, but it is a commonly accepted theory).

OH GOD THEY REALLY EXIST!

So, when I heard "The world will end on December 21, 2012", I reacted like any normal person would: got as many weapons I could and build a "Fortress of Solitude".

Unfortunately, I couldn't fit my suit of armor in the picture.

Just joking!... except for the suit of armor.

But seriously. I took the news as a hoax, since I am not only paranoid, but I am cynical: like most people. People saying the world is going to end is like saying we'll be able to invent flying cars: extremely possible and will definitely happen, but not for a long, LONG time.

I guess we're -61 days due for another rapture

However, many people believe that it will actually occur: December 21st, 2012 is going to be the doomsday.

I'm not going to believe it, but I'm also not going to not believe it, since it could actually happen. Who knows why.

"Wait... did Command tell us NOT to launch the bombs?"

I guess you're now wondering where this article is going. Well, if you take a look here, you'll figure it out.

Yes, in fact, many people in South America are now celebrating the End of the World because it will bring in a lot of tourism to many places like Maccu Pichu and Chichen Itza. They are expecting around 52 million dollars in Tourism in 2012: more than double 2011's catch (24 million or so).

So, what's your take on the End of the World? What will happen? What will you do?

Me? I'm going to research the exact time when the world will end, go to downtown Hamilton or Limeridge Mall, and then I'm going to play Chocolate by  Snow Patrol at exactly 2 minutes and 44 seconds before the designated time and watch the madness.

I actually just discovered this song yesterday. Maybe it means something?

Anyway, thanks for reading, and have a happy holiday!
