So 2011 was one of the worst years to date, mother nature decided that she wanted to wreck us with the highest snow fall and rain totals in like 80 years (except Texas you guys got a total of 3 inches of rain all summer), a bunch of people died, hippies invaded every major city in America and the rest of the world just went insane and revolts and civil wars spread like wild fires. Speaking of which the bulk of the South West and California was burnt to a crisp and God made a very valiant attempt to blow Los Angeles and the OC back into the Pacific with unprecedented catagory 4 hurricane force Santa Ana winds. On the plus side a bunch of the evilest people on the planet were killed but we've yet to see if worse people are going to take their spots.

So not to be a pessimist but I seriously think that the worlds economy and welfare will completely bottom out, America will reach the very cusp of another civil war as the Occupy and Tea Party retards invade and become violent as the next Presidential election comes to a head in November. I'm also very concerned about what will happen once Kim Jong Un fully takes power based on several comments he's made in the past and his extremist anti-American attitude. We also need to worry about what will happen now that we've almost completely pulled out of Iraq, will the bath party come out of hiding and take the country back, will Iran use this time to invade or will it turn into an even bigger s*** hole than it was before.

Then there's the whole "the Worlds going to End" thing that is gaining more steam among the religious extremists and pretty much everyone else. Will the worlds weather be even more insane? Will the Zombie Apocalypse finally happen? Will the job market and economy completely tank causing a worldwide great depression for the 21st century? Will WW III and the Nuclear Holocaust happen?

Maybe I'm just being retarded and total downer, maybe everything will finally turn around and 2012 will be a great year for everyone around the world. Either way Happy New Year everyone.

I think you're smoking the same thing as these "religious extremists" you're talking about.

And about "God making a valiant attempt" with those magical Santa Ana winds, I'm pretty sure all that happened was people losing power.
Wow, godly.

Hi Philadelphian, we always have fires in the summer. Even Floridians know this.

Kim Jong Il was just as insane as Kim Jong Un.
What do you think he'll do? Invade America? Good luck with that. They can barely keep their own people fed.

Every generation thought they'd see the end of the world in their life time, it's nothing new.
Put the bottle down and calm your a**.

Let me tell you something. Everything is awesome.

Everything.

You have to perceive it as such and make it so.

And if it's sh*tty now, set a plan in motion to make it awesome later on.

We might not be able to control the economy, our incompetent leaders, the world, or the universe, but we're in full control of our immediate environment. Take charge, take control, and OWN THAT SH*T. Thank me in 2013.

Yup, you are a pessimist. Jesda pretty much nailed it. The world is how you perceive it. You see an extra snowy winter as a bad thing. Optimists see an opportunity for skiing, sledding, tubing, building snow men, snow days from school, snowball wars, winter wonderlands.

Before you pull out the "I work 40/50 hrs per week' line, most everyone else works too yet they seem to find time to do/plan fun things. Don't concern yourself so much about things you can't control (Santa Ana winds, Philadelphia Iggles, Iran) and concentrate more working in fun each day).

The Great Race to the Bottom mentality has got to stop. I am looking forward to 2012 because as Bebop Deluxe's Bill Nelson once sang, "Another Day, Another Ray of Hope" and that's where my head is at right now.

I wonder if Debbie might give you a break if you had a heartache while crashing your Cessna into a ski slope.

here's a good summary of 2011...

I just remembered something!
Our prophet, Naladude911, once gave us a theory about 2012.
naladude911 wrote:I believe in it!!!!!!!

There is this planet called Neberu that is just outside the pluto's boundries, that enters out solar system every 3500 years, as recorded by the Egyptians and NASA. Well, that planet has very high temperatures, and every 3500 years that it passes the earth, it f***s up our environment, hence global warming and the shifting of the earth's axis. That planet is almost here, and will reach the earth in 2012. My belief is that since the planet is very very very very hot, and exerts a s***load of heat, that when 2012 comes it will blow up every nuclear missile, b0mb, factory, car, gas station etc. That's how the world will end.
This fool things othewise though:

That extreme heat sucks for Nala, as Instant detailer only protects his mom's SUV's paint finish up to 115 degrees farenheit.
