Post your favourite articles on apocalyptic theories now!!!! Perhaps 12stone will solve the mystery surrounding 2012 before it happens. Perhaps that's why 12stone exists in the first place. treefallinginthewoods

All I can think about is that shitty movie with Jon Cusack in it. Then when I think about Jon Cusack I think about my friend who went back to his hotel room. Then I think about the epic story she told about watching Jon Cusack bang her friend while she was reclining in a chair, smoking a cigar, and yelling "Give it to her good, Jonny!"

When it comes to the end of the world, I would rather like to be banging some chick while her friend smokes cigars and yells encouragement.

So, when is it exactly? I mean, getting together a threesome is tricky stuff, requires plenty of planning and getting just the right level of drunk. I can't afford to waste valuable drinking time chatting up two girls at a time unless it IS the end of the world.

All I know about 2012 is that some Native hobo told me it would wash away the entire white race in a sea of blood. "...uh, but not you, you're cool"

besides the 2012 prophecies of doom and blood-water-letting, it seems like a good year for humanity to make a change . . .at the current rate of 50 odd wars at any one time, reliance on fossil fuels, people's disconnect from their spiritual nature and hedonism being touted as the lifestyle choice for most, we're not gonna go far, something has to give. something that will wake the world population up at one time and cut their puppet strings from the few calling the shots..

what's wrong with hedonism?!?!?

There's 12 zodiac signs. Jon Cusack was born under one of them. There's always 12 women in addition to the 12 12s members continually longing for the Stinky's 3some on a Thursday, the Fourth Day which 4 x 3 = 12. Legend says after you fall asleep, you are awoken by a headless wingworm who's reading The Ari Prophecies. While that is a coincidence in itself, what can't be discounted is the 12 grams of coke in his anus.

Oh yeah....it ends.

A life without hedonism is like a supermodel without an ass full of cocaine.

MMXII is 2012 in Roman numerals. Endtimes is not an anagram of MMXII. I rest my case. [chug] An if dere is a white man dat dies in dis twenny twelve well it had no ting to do wid me. [/chug]

Or a somewhat puffy, vigorously pumping Jon Cusack without a cute little girl with a cigar to egg him on.

I think Cusack always looks a little puffy. What do you think is up with that?

It's quite simple really.

A hedonist is essentially a pleasure seeker who values the attainment of pleasure above all else. Hedonists face at least three big problems. First, they choose immediate pleasures of the senses over deferred pleasures of longer-term (and longer-lasting) goals attained by discipline, effort, and patience. Why is that a problem? Because instantaneous gratification is always short-lived; thus hedonists are constantly hungry for more. This leads to the second problem: Not only are their appetites insatiable, but they also need increasing amounts of gratification just to maintain their customary levels of dissatisfaction. Initially Kevin wanted one drink, one fix, and one girl; soon he wanted two of each; eventually, three or more. Hedonism's appetite is never satisfied, but its cumulative effects on the body, mind, and spirit are truly debilitating and destructive. And that's the third problem: A hedonist's craving for immediate gratification may gradually kill him. This is ironic but true. source:http://www.mnemosynefoundation.com/main_troubadourpress_marinoff_02.htm

The idea of a hedonist is truly the selfish, shallow, and disillusioned way to live. Drug addicts, alcoholics and sexually devious people are perfect examples of this lifestyle. Avoiding displeasure at all times pays a heavy toll on your humanity.

Also Christians are really keen on hedonism, hence its widespread acceptance and deplorable direction America is taking.

The're a lot to be said for moderate, content, humble living.

Pick any one of the past 25 centuries and I'll give you a group that tied hedonism with some form of eschatology. :shrug:

The cynics' response to the cyreanic school, maybe? Though realistically the Jews were already discussing apocalypse at that time. The first temple was destroyed around 586 BC so I think the Jews have the last 25 centuries covered easy peasy.

This is true. Though there's a hell of a lot more to be said for a rock and roll no-holds-barred existence. Particularly if there are orgies.

after being so let down by the lack of mayhem and catastrophe surrounding y2k... i callously shrug off any other predictions of doom and gloom.

silently waits and wishes for a post-apocalyptic world to come
