The spin on 2012

[ryudo]

so many theories on exactly what will go down in 2012. Half of it's a load of crap. There are a few theories catching my eye though.

Has anyone heard about the mysterious planet x also known as niburu? Apparently It's supposed to be like a supersized asteroid that is going to pass by earth. A chunk of rock that big would have a magnetic field stronger than ours. That goes hand in hand with the pole shift theory that is also supposed to go down.

If the poles shift then the magma under the earth's surface (which is magnetized) will change it's flow causing seismic disturbances and possible volcanic activity. The pole shift would also effect the electromagnetic field that encircles the earth protecting us from solar flares.

Seismic activity spurred by this chain reaction of pure fail would cause huge tidal waves to sweep over the surface of the earth causing massive floods and destruction.

On top of all that someone says aliens live on niburu and they are coming as a welcoming committee from some sort of galactic federation.

Tied in with all of that are also theories about humans having a shift in brain chemistry from all this magnetic stuff which will unlock the unused portions of our brains allowing magic to become real again and us being able to manifest our own reality with our thoughts alone.

The final theory that sticks out is we will all be sucked into a rogue man made black hole that will be unleashed when they finally turn on the Large Hadron Collider for it's first round of hardcore testing. Once we enter the black hole one of two things will happen. We will either all be ripped to shreds on a quantum level and put back together in a ball of energy about the size of a basketball, or the black hole will act as a portal to a new place in spacetime.

On the bright side of all of this we have theories that the governments of the world will be dismantled and we will all live in a utopian society that is run on love and rainbows instead of money until someone gets greedy and tries to take over the world again.

So yeah in short. Super asteroid, Aliens, Galactic Federations, Tsunamis, Volcanos, Solar Flares, Magic, Black holes, and world socialism. That right there is enough to make anyone's head spin. Regardless of what happens I plan to sit back and enjoy the ride. It's definitely going to be an eventful year.

What's going to happen in 2012? Here's my prediction.

New generation of Android Phones with ICS.
New generation of iDevices (iPhone, iPad, random other products Apple makes).
Presidential election where somebody is voted in.
Somebody famous will die.
Something bad will happen (disaster of sorts) somewhere.
Gas prices will go up.
Food prices will go up.
There'll be a riot somewhere.
Record profits.
Avarik is going to get banned at least once.

As long as whatever happens takes out where ever my ex-fiancee is and I'm drunk at the time? I don't really care.
Sadly, life will continue to push on for her and every woman whose stepped on my nuts while I'm trying to sleep.

Hey Jack,

Don't forget the bit about the world's financial system crashing.

Strap yourself in for that one!

I won't go as far as that one, as I cannot be as sure about that as anything else I said. I will say shit will not be as cheap as it used to be.

The Federal Reserve is likely to bail out the Eurozone because American banks have made HUGE investments in European debt, especially in some of the countries that just got downgraded, like Denmark and France. To save their friends' money, Ol' Bernanke and the Federal Reserve (WHICH IS A PRIVATE INSTITUTION) is most likely going to print a shit ton of money and then use it to bail out Europe. If we do that, we will be even MORE entangled in a collapsing system and instead of the banksters taking the big hits it will be us because our money will be devalued and the investments that were made with the money that did that are going to fucking tank and head right down the toilet with Europe. And then when we have our big crash as a result it is likely China's financial institutions will also see some sort of collapse as well.

Corporate greed once again tanks the world economy yaaaaay! The most infuriating part is that they just didn't let those involved in the ILLEGAL BEHAVIOR AND FRAUD that led to the current meltdown stay out of prison (and in fact didn't do anything legal to them at all) but they ALSO bailed out their companies and the SAME MOTHERFUCKERS are in the executive positions taking record breaking bonuses despite the fact the are directly responsible for millions of foreclosures, which for some institutions (such as Bank of America) have become more lucrative than keeping the mortgage above water. It's fucking sickening, especially since all of this was able to be done using the Banks' customers' money due to financial deregulation during the Bush administration.
