You see, it's that very reaction

I sound this off to my friends and they look at me like they would rather jump into the sea with a rock tied to their necks.

It seems to scare them more than any 2012 earthquake. What if Palin is the true "asteroid" of 2012

Is Betsey listening? We're discussing her favourite topic, I should DM her.

Sure / Right?! .

But, alot of out-of-work Comedians need fresh stuff to crack jokes about. And its bad enough that the "Bush Family Crime Syndicate", has left us the laughing stock of the world and that goes for the third world nations. She's sure is the Right Stuff , a teaching tool for "NOT WHAT TO BECOME", although I hear that if you blow in her ears she says, "Thanks for the refill".
Sorry, I don't have any popcorn.

Wink Last night, we saw "2012"

1) The special effects were SPECTACULAR. Super Spectacular in fact!

The premise is, well... the premise. The sad "I'll talk to you next week, mom...[sob]" when the talker knows she's gonna be dead next week? Too hokey.

But the scenes of L.A. sliding into the ocean are priceless. One can only hope, huh? The faked speech by Svarts-eh-Neghar [Kahl-ee-forh-nee-yah!] are also humorous, as he announces the danger has passed just as the Sacramento Capital building collapses on him.

Of course, Hollywood get's it's digs in by photo'ing way too much of it right there in LaLaLand, but hey; it was their tab, right? And Hollywood IS the Center of the Fake Universe after all...

Anyhow, a poll conducted somewhere noted that about 33% of the viewers of this movie were actually scared by it, and said they were afraid it was an accurate depiction.

How DO we make some money off this, guys? BTW, I think the best place to hide would be onboard a US nuc boomer sub. Assuming the premise isn't that the entire world is gonna completely disintegrate. Poof!

Oh yeah; scientifically, the script calls for "mutated neutrinos" as the culprit. They penetrate us harmlessly, but then superheat the Earth's core, just like a microwave oven does. Strangely, these hyper-energetic particles do nothing to us residents or the equally absorbent oceanic waters.

Well, no-one said this was in any way scientifically accurate, I know. Just like the "real" prediction.

And there's a brief religious reference, as some big Rusky HIND helos fly in two giraffes, two elephants, etc. to the "Ark" site. You know; the impossible "two by two" scenario of that old fairy tale?

So, it's started. The mass hysteria, fueled by the honest and heartfelt wishful desires of the fundies for just such an apocalyptic event, but not complete unless that mythic Golden Ship arrives to take the devout onboard soz they can "Neah neah" the rest of us heathens...

Phunny stuff!

Good call on the neutrinos, rifleman. I was thinking exactly the same. It's just that they took so much liberty with atomic physics

I got bummed at the Indian stereotype. Their accents, their emotions and their way of life. For Pete's sake, Hollywood still portrays British India. For the record, how me and my peers speak, we do not sound like that at all Many a time all of us get asked if we are British educated, on the accent part.

The movie was so boring I fell asleep.

But the best moment was when they showed the president in the church. I just died laughing, hahahaha

Then we can happily agree: it's a docu-scyfy-futuro-comedic-drama?

With no basis in future-fact, given that it's too too wack-a-loon?

Of course, you know what's going to happen, don't you? On Dec 18th or so,. a semi-large meteorite, which of course the Mayans could not possibly have predicted, will enter a potential collision path with the Earth, it will be announced on the Alphabet Evening News [it having been a slow week and all...] and all hell will break out in the streets...

Well, perhaps the sex will be good.... until the next morning, when you wake up with "God, who is THIS?" beside you, and a real bad headache!

Yes, docu-scyfy-futuro-comedic-drama it is.

Except that I would call it a tragic comedy too.

Even I'm saying nothing's gonna happen in 2012. I know I'll be happily married, making more money, and possibly expecting twins, LMAO.

Dang dude - that would be funny as hell for sure. Even though it seems completely unbelievable - stranger things have happened. How fun to see what happens next.

I've had friends swear to leave the country if that happens!!!

I think Palin has some good qualities, but wanting her to be President because it'll annoy people you don't like is probably a bad idea. When their side did it we ended up with Senator Al Franken.
