    Sure, but the Mayan calendar stuff was a fucking joke. The only people who took that seriously were already batshit or the media. Everyone else treated it like a fun distraction. Same thing for Y2K.

      It was a joke, but the doomerism about that year was using that joke to say something real about 2011. That’s what I’m saying.
