"The Mayan calendar ends at 12/21/12. That must mean it's the end of the world!"
Seems legit.
Nickelodeon (ended 2012)

. But their calender was always wrong. They didn't know about leap years.Whoever first came up with the theory of the world ending a few weeks ago... I mean, seriously. The Mayans had to end somewhere. We don't have to follow their calendar forever. As if we can't figure out what day/month/year comes after the next for ourselves or anything.... Awhile back, I wanted to make a comic dedicated to this. It was either gonna be about the Mayans taking a long break after stopping at that specific date and, when asked why, replying that they'll get to it later...which never happens. Or it was gonna be about them working on the calendar, when one of them says, "You know what'd be funny? If we totally screwed a bunch of people over in the future by just stopping the calendar at some random date in time. They'll be so scared saying, 'Oh no, the world's gonna end because there's no December 13 of 2012 on the Mayan calendar! Oh, what'll we do?!' and the rest of them laugh and agree. I never did make them. But I thought it'd be kinda funny. And in no way were they supposed to mock Mayans or anything. Just the people who believed in all that "end of the world" nonsense. (Sorry, if it was any of you. But you now know that you can't always believe everything you hear. Sometimes, the government just likes to keep us in a state of terror. Even the TV programs covering all that crap...they were most likely paid to spew out random facts that seemed legitimate enough to lead up to a story like that.)

. Lol, imagine if that's actually what happened? XD. But , I don't like to believe end of world theories, but I am always just a tiny bit scared on the day of each one of them, because I think to myself, "What if it's true?" .
I could still make it, but it'd obviously be a little outdated. I came up with the ideas when I first heard about that day a few years back. But I didn't think about it again until just recently and by then, I guess I got a little busy. At least we've got confession.| pixarprincess wrote: |

I recently came to the epiphany that the entire iCarly universe (And by extension all the works of Dan on Nickelodeon) run on Freudian psychology. Not to Evangelion standards, but it's definetly in there. If anyone, ANYONE, still hangs out around here, I'll write something up about it on a forum.

. Also, speaking of avatars, I hate how you how this place handles Signatures. I once had a banner in my sig and I gotta a TOS Warning for it being too "Big", but it really wasn't that big.
