Mildly Concussed

How does one come to feel "Mildly Concussed?" Does such a state even exist?!

Sure it does! Its like saying "I was beaten half to death."

What halfway between life and death anyway?

Oh well, whatever.

So thanks to a certain pessimist i watched this hour long documentary on youtube called "2012", or something. Forgot the full name. Anyhoo,

Its about how the Chinese civilization and the Mayan civi both came to the conclusion that the world would end on Dec 21 2012. Also, a robot they use for stock predictions predicted the same date.

Apparently, thats the day where the sun, the moon and earth align with a black hole or something, and then there are rapid shifting of the poles, large earthquakes, and tsunamis yadda yadda we all die. BOO-FUCKING-HOO!

I'll admit, it was mildly interesting. And i did sorta confront the possiblity of dying at the age of 26, single, young, and too good-looking to be put in a casket. (Not that there will be any caskets)

I never did think i would be old enough to see the earth be destroyed. I mean, it always sounded like somethin out of a novel, right? Or a Will Smith movie?

But somehow it didn't bother me all too much. Firstly, i dont trust the Mayan calendar.



I mean, look at it! Thing looks like a mid-level boss in a budget video game you find in the bargain bin. Or maybe i'm just suspicious of all future telling devices made of wood, by people who wear little more than loin cloths.

The Chinese (Yes, i know i'm Chinese) don't have much going for them either. Apparently they decided the date WE ALL DIE by tossing 3 coins several times. YES, THATS RIGHT. THEY TOSSED SOME COINS. And they probably used said coins to purchase, i dunno, a flask of wine, a donkey, and a empress dowager after said fortune telling. Okay honestly? I don't know the exact price of an empress dowager, but you get it, right?

Don't even get me started on the robot.

So many psychics have tried to predict the end of the world so many times, none have succeeded. So its all hogwash, IMO.

Of course, if the world does end in 4 years time, i will look up into the burning sky and say "My bad, Mayans and Chinese." Before i get utterly annihlated.
