Because the world already ended in 2012.

We are living in hell.

dutchkimble,

Dont you mean when it became 2000 and Satan got unlocked

Now I know exactly why 2013 was the worst year ever: it never should’ve happened.

kromem,

The students said to the teacher, “Tell us, how will our end come?”

The teacher said, “Have you found the beginning, then, that you are looking for the end? You see, the end will be where the beginning is.

Congratulations to the one who stands at the beginning: that one will know the end and will not taste death.”

Insufficient orgies. We need more of them, and bigger ones.

How can we secure a solar eclipse induced apocalypse next time?

Nuke the moon real hard, duh

Voroxpete,

Ah, the Skaven solution.

zeh_ahoi,

maybe add more karens to the equation and throw in some crystals and shit

Etterra,

Oh hey the world ended again. Cool. Can’t wait for the next time.

Ookami38,

Elsewhere, there was a giant hurricane. Demons now roam the world, more than used to at least, but they mostly appear as more unfavorable people. If you run into a big dude with a chunk of iron much too large to be a sword, massive, thick, heavy and far too rough, more a chunk of iron really, he’s not a bad dude, just don’t do anything to his girl.

What happens to the people who actually believed this? Imagine someone quitting their job because “the world is ending on Monday.” They tell all their friends and family goodbye. They stop paying bills. Then Monday rolls around and…they’re still here. Now what? Do they go beg for their job back? How do they face their friends and family again? It sounds so embarrassing.

exanime,

They’ll move on to the next conspiracy not having learned a bit from their stupid decisions… And the society they hate will continue to provide for them

grasshopper_mouse,
@grasshopper_mouse@lemmy.world avatar

I just imagine someone trying to get their job back and their former boss laughing in their face. Maybe this is how some people become homeless (because I presume they are mentally unstable to begin with).

Sam_Bass,

The people that do that dont typically have jobs nor pay their own bills since they livein an environment that allows them enough free time to absorb and spread such conspiratorial material

Corkyskog,

According to my friend, it happened, the world ended. Now you may be wondering how I could even have this chat with him if the world ended. Not to worry, there is a perfectly reasonable explanation…

I am not me, and he went into a different universe when the previous world had collapsed. Apparently I wasn’t so lucky, nor any of the other 8.1 Billion souls. Only he got to come here, because his original self was already dead. How I wouldn’t have remembered him dying and doing a Jesus, is beyond me…

This all leads me to the conclusion that my friend stopped taking his meds and has been binging rick and morty again.

grasshopper_mouse,
@grasshopper_mouse@lemmy.world avatar

So it’s just excuses and more made up nonsense to try and justify their existence. Mental instability is wild.

ipkpjersi,

Sorry to hear your friend stopped taking his meds. Medicine non-compliance is a big problem :(

some_guy,

There was a great photo of a guy who bought into the Mayan calendar bullshit in 2012 (I think?). He’d given away or sold his home and all his stuff. In the photo, he was checking his watch while young people next to him were laughing. I imagine his life was ruined.

But some cults just keep pushing the date back. See Millerites in USA:

Ooo, I’ll get to live through 3 more ends of the world! Excellent. That was a wild read, thanks for the links.

shrugs,

I wonder if there are still people living in their underground bunker believing they are the only one that survived 2000 or 2012

dutchkimble,

That would like a Blast from the Past

MapleEngineer,

They’re so ignorant that they thought that the eclipse was global and believed that it was the beginning of the biblical 3 days of total darkness that signaled the end of the world. They are so fucking horny for the end of the world and their presumed admission to heaven that they see the end everywhere and are actively trying to bring it about. That’s why they want to start a race war, and a war with Russia, and… they’re trying to CAUSE the end of the world so that they can go to heaven.

I like to think of Jesus chasing them around and around the pearly gates with a whip. Biblically speaking, it’s not out of the question.

That any of those people believe that they are Christians when they don’t follow the letter and spirit of the teachings of Jesus Christ is utterly baffling.

bradorsomething,

No this was an eclipse, common mistake. An apocalypse is an archaic term for a chemist or pharmacist.

Hazzia,

No no, that’s an apothacary. An apocalypse is the little dash used to create compund words.

HopingForBetter,

Sorry, but um, actually, that’s a hyphen. An apocalypse is the goddess from Pirates of the Carribean who is in love with Davy Jones.

Hazzia,

(okay I know this is a joke thread and I shouldn’t take any of it seriously but the fact you didn’t pick up on “apostrophy” is bugging the hell out of me)

HopingForBetter,

Apostrophes create contractions, hyphens create compounds.

bradorsomething,

Wait… I know you’re referring to Keira Knightly, but wasn’t she in love with his son?

I was totally wrong earlier, apocalypse is a style of rhythmic Caribbean music from Trinidad and Tobago. Maybe OP was hoping for some soulful apocalyptic music during the eclispe.

There was an eclipse? Didn’t even know since there weren’t any news of it being on my part of the world.

Guess it first need to be worlwide to create an apocalypse,

federalreverse,

It was visible in large parts of North America.

crony,
@crony@lemmy.cronyakatsuki.xyz avatar

I’m not even on that side of the earth.

Corkyskog,

Earth doesn’t have sides, it’s spherical.

crony,
@crony@lemmy.cronyakatsuki.xyz avatar

Earth is spherical yes, but we as humans divided it into side to be able to differentiate it easilly where we are relatively to one another.

So relatively, america is on the another side of earth compared to me, or 180 degrees far on the sphere

Corkyskog,

The antipode of America is the Indian ocean. Do you live in the Kergulean Islands? That’s the only land that is 180 degrees from somewhere in America.

If you want to tell me where you are specifically, I can tell you the exact antipode… but it’s often just somewhere in the ocean… lots of water here.

crony,
@crony@lemmy.cronyakatsuki.xyz avatar

Croatia

Corkyskog,

It says your antipodal point is in the ocean, sort of between the south and south pacific ocean. Nearest landmass is Chatham Islands, New Zealand… although it seems like quite the swim.

Antipode coordinates: -45.814, -164.022

Antipode finder. It’s actually kind of fun to play around with, you realize how much darn ocean there is haha.

Phen,

I saw a bunch of memes about eclipses and concluded there was probably one happening somewhere

Omega_Haxors,

Genocide on the promise land might have something to do with it.

Sterile_Technique, (edited )
@Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world avatar

The eclipse was supposed to be apocalyptic? I missed the memo this time. We seem to collect those things like they’re Pokemon.

variants,

Haven’t you seen Apocalypto, you use the eclipse to control the masses by saying they have to listen to you because you know what the gods want

Knowledge is power
