But it didn't.
Anyway, real talk, I really wonder if there were people out there who actually did think that 12.21.2012 was supposed to mark the end of the world. I know that it was the end of the Mayan Calendar, but some people actually thought it was supposed to be doomsday. It obviously wasn't. People thought it was supposed to end on 5.21.2011, others thought 6.6.2006 and then of course, 12.31.1999 right when the clock strikes midnight, but in which part of the world? That's what I wondered.
It still cracks me up about these beliefs in those prophecies.

On that date last year I went to see one of my favorite bands, The Street Dogs play at the Paradise Rock Club in Boston (and in fact I'm seeing them tonight at the House of Blues exactly a year later!). One of the songs in their set list was a song called "Punk Rock & Roll"
Anyway, the song has a line (that appears 1:51 into the above clip) that goes "Just need to forget about life on a Saturday night, I don't care if the world goes down and ends tonight" and when Mike McColgan sang that line I took my ticket stub out of my pocket and pointed out the (supposedly apocalyptic) date on it to my friend Jason.

We watched as the bombs shattered the second comet into a million pieces of ice and rock that burned harmlessly in our atmosphere and lit up the sky for an hour. Still, we were left with the devastation of the first. The waters reached as far inland as the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys. It washed away farms and towns, forests and skyscrapers. But, the water receded. The wave hit Europe and Africa too. Millions were lost, and countless more left homeless. But the waters receded. Cities fall, but they are rebuilt. And heroes die, but they are remembered. We honor them with every brick we lay, with every field we sow, With every child we comfort, and then teach to rejoice in what we have been re-given. Our planet. Our home. So now, let us begin.

The afterlife has been a tad disappointing thus far.
