    So I should stop working on the asteroid attractor ray and begin working on the methane bubble poker? :unsure:

    I'm still gonna hope for it, if it's all the same to everyone else. Asteroid, Earth Fart, Zombie Apocalypse, the disease from 12 Monkeys, I'm not picky.

    True, Diacanu was nothing short of a prophet when it came to foreseeing the impending ass blast based apocalypse.

    It is a load of crap, and a bunch of other sites have already thoroughly debunked it. Like this one, for starters.

    What's funny and sad is that this BS had a lot of people worrying themselves sick - the kinds of people who would want this to be true if only to smugly say, "I knew you selfish rich white capitalists would ruin the world!"

    Except on WF, where it is the selfish white capitalists who are playing the "Apres moi, le Deluge" card.

    I find this especially intriguing among the ones who have children. :chris:

    Yeah...because they are 100% serious and not indulging in extreme hyperbole to voice their frustrations and disgust with current affairs. :jayzus:

    There have been instances of methane being trapped on the ocean floor held down by the weight of the water I've read somewhere. Eventually it gains enough girth to overcome it and rise in a big bubble and hilarity ensues!

    Can't recall where I read that though.

    Would you settle for 12 zombie monkeys farting on a diseased asteroid?

    Settle? So long as said asteroid then hits us, that'll be the jackpot for UA!

    As long as it aims the asteroid at Washington DC, I'm for it.
