Nobody can say when the world will end. In this case I don't believe the Mayans they were just people and people  can't possibly know when it will be the end of the world. We weren't told that.

Not really.  But just because the world isn't coming to and end doesn't mean you can't party like it is. 

So I'm gonna bring my party cannon, just in case.  If you wake up on 12/22/2012 and don't feel so hungover and/or tired that you don't wish the world had ended the night before, you did it wrong.

Lol I live on top of a large hill so I would be safe.

If the world did end I would think it would be because of the Yellowstone Caldera causing an extreme volcanic winter, something going screwy with the sun, or our planet somehow being thrown off orbit.

I really don't think the world will end in 2012 though, and unlikely to be even this century.

Back when I was in high school, as part of a class discussion session, out teacher asked us "What would you do if you knew the world was going to end today?".

One of my classmates, Maurice, offered up his apocalyptic vision:  "If the world was going to end today. I'd go out and rape me some chicks".  :o

However, I do hope that if it does, I will finally receive an answer from some Supreme Being that I have wondered for a long time-

Where are all those missing socks that people have been losing in washing/drying machines all these years?

Think of the last minute scramble for Xmas gifts from all those people who thought they'd be off the hook.  I think that's what the prophecy predicted anyway but it was lost in translation.  Sort like Oedipus. He heard the prophecy about his son so he sent him away---thereby setting the prophecy itself in motion. If he'd kept his son close his son never would've slept with his mom.  ;D

If people act like the worlds not going to end then it won't.  If they think it will the panic that follows when it doesn't is what actually signifies earth's demise.  :D

No, we're not going Back to the Future.  We're going to see Night of the Comet, ca. 1984.

But if that's too old-school, how about Last Night, a delightfully trippy 1998 film set in Toronto, one night before the end of the world.

From IMDB:

"It's 18:00 in a somewhat deserted Toronto on the last day before the scheduled end of the world at midnight, the end which has been known now for months. Most people are treating midnight as a matter-of-fact event with little sense of panic. In fact, many are celebrating this last day. Most have very specific wants for this last day and will do whatever they need to to make those wants happen. And some, such as Duncan and Donna with the gas company, are working, ensuring that the masses are served and comfortable during the final hours. The Wheeler family are marking the last day by having a Christmas party, although sullen adult son Patrick, his thoughts in part stemming from being recently widowed, has made it clear he wants to be alone in his own home at the end. Patrick's wants may be in jeopardy when a woman named Sandra - Duncan's wife - lands on his doorstep. Sandra is stranded, trying to make it across town to her own home so that she and Duncan can carry out their own last night pact at the stroke of midnight. As Patrick tries to help Sandra on his own, mostly unsuccessfully, they try to enlist the assistance of various people, including Patrick's best friend Craig, who has his own sexually oriented last day list of tasks. As Sandra goes on her quest, Duncan himself faces his own issues while waiting for his wife. But as midnight approaches, some can't fulfill their planned destiny so have to make some quick improvisations, while the priority of others changes."
