Fun news from the end of the world?

I've sort of been excited for this day to come for years just to hear the news stories about crazy doomsdayers doing crazy doomsdayers things. So far I've only heard this little bit about some cult trying to spread hysteria in China. Hopefully there's not too much looting but I hope to hear some interesting stuff.

If any of you guys hear any fun stories in the next few days please share!

There's a lawyer who plans to jump in a vortex he thinks will open up tomorrow. It'll probably be a suicide jump.

Wait, I'm confused. Why can't anybody stop him from killing himself?

Didn't actually read most of that, but I believe authorities can only stop someone if their intent is to take their own lives and, in this case, that is not the person's intent at all?

@FluxWaveZ: THAT IS HILARIOUS. I can't wait for it to hit YouTube.

It's crazy fuckin' windy over here in southern Indiana. I haven't heard anyone attribute it to the end of times, though. And we're all about the end of times in the midwest.

Well, that's appropriately fucked up for the occasion.

Hot news!

It's still raining, and it will probably continue to rain today.

I've waited two whole hours for this rain to end (along with the world) but i got nothing!

Must be my timezone. I guess I'm too far in the future so I missed the world ending or something.

Maybe North America will melt or something? I dunno.

Two hours into the end of the world here in jolly ol' England, nothing yet.

@JonathanAshleyMoore: That's because the Mayan's scheduled the end of the world to begin at Midnight Eastern Time. So, we got about 3 more hours.

I saw Neil deGrasse Tyson encouraging people to convince anyone they know, who thinks the world will end, to sign over all of their assets to them before "The End".

I hope there are some success stories from that.

Good God, that website looks circa 1995.

It's the end of a calendar, not the world. They got it all wrong.

Shhhh! Don't tell that to the crazies. They have guns. Just nod your head and smile. Then back out of the room slowly.

Copyrighted 2006, yo.

I hope some day a new civilization finds one of my calendars and thinks I predicted the end of the world.

All I've heard is that a lot of tourists decided to go to the ancient pyramid ruins in Mexico and the story the OP posted.

But how do you know the world doesn't continue because calendars continue? HOW DO YO KNOE?!

When I read News for end of the world all I can think of is Utena.

Fuck. I knew the world would end before the Mac version of Hotline Miami came out.

I heard the next baktun has cats on it, so that'll be cute

I know it is supposed to happen when the winter solace happens which is 5:12am central time usa 12/21/2012.

I just heard a commercial that ended with a lady saying "Merry Pringles".

Right now I'd like to think there is a small group of teenagers, say 6 to 8, battling against monsters we don't know exist to prevent the end of the world. Spiky hair and lots of belts optional.

Just think...what if you legitimately die tomorrow. It's the end of the world for you (well depending on your beliefs I guess).

That would suck.

But no, all this stuff is so silly.

I barely survived Y2K, how am I going to survive this!?

I live in AZ and its cold as shit, something doesn't add up here.

I've been telling all of my women friends to not go outside tomorrow.

Because of the high possibility of "end-of-the-world rapers"

I doubt in 750 AD, the Mayans were like, "Hey Greg, when you make that calendar make sure to denote that all times and dates are Eastern Standard Time, GMT -5. Thanks duder!"

It's crazy fuckin' windy over here in southern Indiana. I haven't heard anyone attribute it to the end of times, though. And we're all about the end of times in the midwest.

Bloody awesome sunny perfect day here in Melbourne Aus.......hmmmm thats not right have not had all four seasons in one day SHIT THE END IS NIGH
