Bobert-Rob

And so, Rob rambles about 2012

Posted by Bobert-Rob May. 15, 2008 @ 8:51 AM EDT

This is a pointless little post in which I'm just going to ramble. Leave if you no likey aimless rambling.

EDIT: Ok, so apparently it's the Mayan calendar that predicts this, not the bible. People I know keep saying the bible for some reason. *shrug*

2012 Rant:
So yesterday I got my liscence renewed. Now it's good until 2014. When I mention this to people, they like to mention the whole "World's going to end in 2012" thing, which annoys me.

This is the same shit people spouted about 2000, that all the computers were going to die and civilization would crumble. Yeah, that happened pretty well, eh? And now people are saying 2012 is the new apocalypse date since it was mentioned in the bible or something. I wouldn't know whether the bible really says this since I never read the bible, but how are we supposed to assume some old text is right about this? It's an advice book, not a calendar for future events. Nothing's going to change in 2012 either. Every generation has their apocalypse date and it never happens. God just keeps pushing back the release date on mankind's ultimate destruction.

Once 2012 doesn't end in tragedy, someone will find something ELSE that promises destruction at some later date and all the paranoid idiots will look forward to THAT, which won't happen either. I love humanity.

But I digress.

Since Rob loves adding art to his posts that are unrelated to his non-animation blog posts, the image below is likewise unrelated to 2012. This is a sketch of a Siblings episode I most likely will NEVER make since I have so many other things that need doing. See, it'd be an entire episode that'd parodize certain series here on NG. As you can tell, they're not the super popular series, but rather, some of the older ones I've always enjoyed myself. This includes Spike being Beebo, Johny being Jhonny of 3-ALi fame, and Rob being Eskimo Bob. The last two are just done because of the similar names, but I figured Spike'd make a good Beebo (that and the fact that Beebo is an awesome series), so I made that connection. I'll probably never do it, though, so I figured I'd share. Cuz I'm nice like that.

Oh, and in the image itself, I misspell Eskimo. I do that a LOT for some reason. Oh well.

Bible doesn't say anything about 2012. It's related to a Mayan prediction. Has nothing to do with the Bible.
The Bible bit came about because some idiot got the bright idea to rearrange some letters and toss in some made up formulas and came up with this number. It's just another nut spouting off about the end of the world and embarrassing everyone.

May. 16, 2008 | 10:01 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

Ah, nifty. Good to know.


May. 15, 2008 | 10:54 AM OdHero says:

12/12/2012 end of the Mayan Calendar which 'apparently' has predicted many events and thinks 2012 is the end of the world. I don't believe it, and if you don't why does it annoy you?

May. 16, 2008 | 10:02 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

Cuz everyone that talks about it makes it out to be another '2000' prediction, that's all. I'm annoyed because so many people I know buy into it, that's all.


May. 15, 2008 | 11:57 AM thebeanhead says:

hmmmm yeah that sounds delitefull rob


May. 15, 2008 | 12:03 PM Mosaab says:

Just follow the Muslim belief: God only knows when the apocalypse is coming. No one else.

May. 16, 2008 | 10:02 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

Damn straight.


May. 15, 2008 | 12:04 PM Rabid-Turtle says:

Thank you! I'm sick and tired of hearing that too.
The fucking world was supposed to have ended about six times now, and we're still here, but does anyone make THAT connection? No.
They should predict the date in which the sun will engulf the earth, and mark THAT as the end of the world. Oh well, if anything, we'll get to be the assholes who walk around in 2013 saying "We told you so."


May. 15, 2008 | 1:01 PM fede1920 says:

Well, i don't know what to think about this apocalypse situation...maybe it's true , maybe not .. who knows

And about the Ng parody stuff...well i don't know what to say , in fact i don't know why the hell i am doung this comment

Anyway , keep up the good work your animation are fawesome , yes fawesome , it's like fucking awesome but without the ucking thing :D

May. 16, 2008 | 10:03 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

Hey, I'm not sure why I'm responding either, but there must be SOME reason. Some reason indeed.


May. 15, 2008 | 1:29 PM K111 says:

im gonna tell you the same thing that guys say to rosie o'donnald, it aint gonna happen

just kidding


May. 15, 2008 | 2:47 PM BetaOrionis says:

The world ends when I say it ends. And not a moment before. Period.


May. 15, 2008 | 3:54 PM BMack24 says:

pretty sure it's december 21st, 2012. and i've heard it's not really going to be the apocalypse per se but rather the end of the current age of man. some earth-shattering event that changes everything, perhaps. it could end up being a good thing, who knows?

May. 16, 2008 | 10:04 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

Earth shattering, eh? Well, we'll see about that. I sincerely doubt anything huge'll happen, personally. But that's just me.


May. 15, 2008 | 5:08 PM Rammer says:

i follow the atheist kind of apocalypse.

entropy.

o:


May. 15, 2008 | 9:08 PM DibbityDan says:

The end of the world has nothing to do with religion, it's going to be when our planet is destroyed. If "god" wanted to destroy the world, i'm sure he would have done it already. The way I see it, there's a few ways.
1. A giant meteor hits the earth in a billion years.
2. The Earth drifts too close to the sun and we burn up in a billion years.
3. Nuclear holocaust/terrorism in a few years.
Maybe George Bush will get desperate towards January '09 and blow up some nukes. I could see that.

May. 16, 2008 | 10:06 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

I like the 'in a billion years' scenario cuz we'll most likely have died out by then. That or we'll become space monkeys and we'll fly around space converting space rocks into food and fuel, developing cabin fever and murdering eachother. That'll be fun.


May. 15, 2008 | 9:30 PM keatnisher says:

8/8/08. that is another day we are supposed to die... and some time in 2009... how sad its just 2012 is the MOST proven.... sorta


May. 15, 2008 | 10:32 PM chris-the-stick2 says:

well in 2010.. will we be friends?

also, i may add to the serious parts of this story, i think the worls will end...

when it will end.

thats the opinion i can giv to you.

also:make this episode. really. do it.(spike looks graet in facial hair)

May. 16, 2008 | 10:07 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

Probably won't, but who knows, I may get desperate for ideas in 5 years and do it just for the hell of it. Not anytime soon, though.


May. 15, 2008 | 11:57 PM Old-Ironsides says:

Your right about how society will always assign SOME future date, from whatever "creditble" record, the 2012 is when the ancient mayan calendar ends predicting the downfall of mankind. Their calendars have been surprisingly accurate for other purposes, so many people believe it. I don't know why i felt as though i had to tell you...but yeah, murder's legal now.

May. 16, 2008 | 10:08 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

Yay, legal murder. I'll be right back. Ah hah hah! I kid! Yeah, Mayans. People I talk to keep saying the bible for some reason. I seem to recall hearing about the Mayans before, though, so we'll go with that.


May. 16, 2008 | 1:00 AM HolyPeanuts says:

Lol I have a weird spelling habit too, for some reason I will spell penis as "penus"......


May. 16, 2008 | 3:15 AM Gummi-Ship says:

Oh, well actually there's a giant star that's going to supernova and it's pointed at earth or some such. Can't wait.


May. 16, 2008 | 2:20 PM llVortexll says:

Yea and the mayans died out 2000 years ago, real good they are at predicting the future.

May. 17, 2008 | 11:59 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

Hell yes. They're like weathermen, what with their accuracy at the predictions.


May. 16, 2008 | 3:54 PM Kangman says:

Omg the world's ending in 2012? I guess I have to use my y2k shelter.....SLUMBER PARTY IN MY SHELTER!! Wanna join? I have the golden porn!

Oh by the way congrats on being the king of the portal


May. 16, 2008 | 7:21 PM Blerbu says:

-sigh- Sadly, the apocalypse isn't gonna happen until roughly 1.4 billion years when the sun explodes.
Meanwhile what does science know?
If they were ever RIGHT about the world coming to an end, we would have been dead about 200 years ago.
Meanwhile -pokes hand- I feel alive for some reason!
Woopdy-dingle doo.
I totally agree with you.


May. 16, 2008 | 8:43 PM EvilEgg says:

Well the real thing with 2012.. or at least scientists say....

That the earth will finish it's axis spin and that supposably the poles will shift... causing the mantle to shift.

IDK but either way I don't care 2012 is a long way off.

WHY THE HATE BOB WHY! lol

May. 17, 2008 | 12:01 PM Bobert-Rob responds:

Axis shmaxis. Scientists say all kinds of crap and it isn't true 99.9 % of the time. Of course, I did no research on this, so it's probably inaccurate as hell... but this is science we're talking about. Scientists do a little research and bullshit the rest of it, then prove themselves wrong when they do more research. Oh the glory of science!


May. 16, 2008 | 8:51 PM tobylabanik says:

why is johny's nose so pointy....well i still dont beleive the world is going to end in 2012 its just people getting worked up about some mayan thing predicting the end of mankind when 2013 comes who will be laughing?and....yay your still king of the portal

May. 17, 2008 | 12:02 PM Bobert-Rob responds:

Yeah, go fig, it is monthly. Whoopy. And Johny's nose is pointy cuz he's drawn in a different style, making him look more like the character Jhonny of 3-ALi.


May. 16, 2008 | 9:20 PM Packmanpoop says:

i know what you mean
every one keeps saying that and its realy startin to piss me off

you have to be stuped to belive that crap


May. 17, 2008 | 12:55 PM SinOfTheTwilight says:

Well, apprently, the 2012 one might be real this time. I haven't believed this crap, and I'm still not believing this one, but this is the closest they've gotten to proving an apocolypse. Apprently, a comet is heading for Earth, and it's either going to obliterate us, or brush the planet. They said it's not comming for another couple of years *wink wink*. Still, I agree, is probably not going to happen...would suck if it did, you know?

Eskimo Rob!? YOU TAUNTING SON OF A GENIUS! If I could make time go faster...I would...BECUASE I CAN'T WAIT...ok, I can, but it's going to be hard... :(

May. 17, 2008 | 5:01 PM Bobert-Rob responds:

Meh, comet shmomet. I sincerely doubt anything like that's going to happen. If it does, then cool, but I still doubt it.

And yes, Eskimo Rob. It's funny, because if I ever did that parody episode, Rob wouldn't be like Eskimo Bob at all. He'd just fish with his fishing rod the entire time and would talk up an optimistic storm. Then Johny and Spike would get into an elaborate fight (mixing both Beebo and Jhonny series would result in that you know) and annoy Rob while he tries to innocently fish in his little ice hole.


May. 17, 2008 | 6:41 PM eldraco9 says:

i bet the opposite will happen like the war in iraq will end or the population reaches like 8 billion


May. 17, 2008 | 6:42 PM eldraco9 says:

also 2012 is probably the last year the recorded befor they were all killed of somthing

May. 18, 2008 | 8:52 PM Bobert-Rob responds:

They kept adding years and they ran out of pages, I bet. They were like "You know what? Making calendars sucks." and just ditched it. And they're laughing their asses off at all the dumb people who see it as an apocalypse premonition, heh. I know I would be.


May. 17, 2008 | 9:27 PM Nintendoughnut says:

Ah, 2012, about the umpteenth time were all supposed to die now, is it? Isn't it wonderful how socioty likes to try and predict when we're all going to die? I'm sorry if people around you are bugging you about this little gem; personally, I don't know any one who buys into this, but I do like to make references to it myself, occasionally. My own way of diminishing it's credibility. It must get annoying if you hear it a LOT though. And, also, yes, I likey aimless rambling. I even do it some times (okay, most of the time). Although, if I didn't, reason would tell one that I would not be typing this response because I would have accepted your advice like a sensible person that does not like aimless rambling and would have moved on and not read the post, rendering me incapable of making this comment unless I was a damn good guess at where you were going with the title for this post. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

May. 18, 2008 | 8:53 PM Bobert-Rob responds:

Quite truely, indeed sir.

May. 18, 2008 | 2:48 AM jonnathan00 says:

man that some weird shit, i mean wtf 2012? they said that it would end on 2000
ond 2006 and other dates that i dont fucking rember, but im sure of something, if its real we will know it some days bfore, u know volcanos erupting, alot of earthquakes and things like that, AND MAN I WILL FUCK EVEEEEEEEEEEEERYTHING THAT MOVES, I MEAN EEEEEEEEVERYTHING LOL :)

May. 18, 2008 | 8:57 PM Bobert-Rob responds:

Volcanoes erupt all the damn time. You know, if you watch enough of the discovery channel, they have like 50,000 hour long specials about different ways that we could all die someday, like super volcanoes and meteors and whatever, it's ridiculous. And I would know, I watch a lot of the discovery channel. It's insane how often they talk about shit that has a 0.0001% chance of happening as if it's worth mentioning. "There's a 0.00001% chance the entire planet could just combust eventually, so lets make a special talking about it so idiots will freak out about it!". TV is fun.


May. 18, 2008 | 5:42 PM Blerbu says:

Waiit.
think about this:
I heard the mayan calendar ends at 012/012/012 (note the zeros)
And it is true that the mayan calendar HAS predicted many events that DID happen.
So technically if the mayan calendar ends at 012/012/012...
We would have died when Jesus was just a pre-teen?
I think not.
And when 2012 comes, I'mma laugh at those people who thought the world's gonna end.
And if the world DOES end at 2012...
Then I am an asshole!
:D
(checks online for a mayan calendar)
It shouldn't happen.
And just ignore those people who say it will happen, because when society was sopposed to "crumble", it was because the computers will malfuntion due to the date saying "00" and the computers will think "OMFG OMFG OMFG GUESS TEH FAWKZORZ WHAT!!!!!! IT'S THE BEGINNING OF TIME!! WE DON'T EXIST!! -explode-"
-sigh-
Don't listen to those people.

May. 18, 2008 | 9:00 PM Bobert-Rob responds:

People buy into the stupidest shit sometimes, I tell you. And other people keep saying 12/21/12, which is pretty repetitive too. Lots of twos and ones in that bitch. If it is indeed 12/12/12 that the Mayan calendar ends, well, that's damn awesome, because it's just a bunch of twelves. They probably just ended the calendar there because they were tired of doing it. I mean shit, they're not even around anymore, so it's not like they needed it to go very far to begin with.


May. 18, 2008 | 7:57 PM Rakgie says:

Heh i did a science fair study on this theory, it seems plausible in some cases, however many more cases on the other side of the coin makes it look like a pile of shit. Like everyone said before me, doomsday has started to become a cliche cuz no matter how many times some cultist/kook/whoever thinks that the worlds gunna end on a certain date, it doesn't. If anything maybe somthing'll happn on 2012, and the world ends, but not wat the Mayans think will happen. They think that a gate way to hell will rip open were the Earth is and suck us in. In these days, its called a black hole and i dont know wat the Mayans were thinking, but the odds of that happening is about -60 to 0.

I think that ,if anything, our world'll get wasted by Bush getting tanked at an "office party" then go press the "accidental nuclear strike" button on his desk with all guns aimed to Canada here and blow the hole dam country off this earth and leave a hole the size of the Pacific Ocean in its place.

Those are just my thoughts. Preferably it wont happen either cuz i live in Alberta.
-And also, notice the date on the doomsday, its 12/12/2012 i bet if the mayans had the chance they would have made it 13/13/2013 just to make it seem more convincing. and its like 13 days from Christmas, kind of annoying cuz u miss getting free stuff, the date should be in January some time cuz then law and order can break down before Christmas and everyone can just steal the best christmas gifts ever, use them for a little while, smash them, steal thousands of fireworks for newyears and have a kick ass newyears that has fireworks going from dusk till dawn, criminals partying with cops, guys with girls, booze and sex for everyone, and the best thing is you dont have to clean it up cuz the black hole will do it for u.

-_- There i think i'v said all i need to say. Sorry if u didnt like the rant, but it was fun to type. :D

May. 18, 2008 | 9:03 PM Bobert-Rob responds:

Doomsday theories are a dime a dozen, honestly. Every couple of years there's another one... it's a damn fad, man. The Y2k bug will be back in fashion before you know it, heh...

And hell, at least it isn't 12/21/12, cuz that's only like 4 days from christmas. That'd be even meaner, heh. Whatever the date is, it ain't gonna happen. But ranting is fun, which is why I did it... so yay for that.

It's reassuring to see another intelligent human in this world, especially on the internet. It's people like you and I that will allow stupid shit like this 2012 theory to never happen, humanity would more then likely kill itself off the day people like us decide to sleep in for the day before some stupid theory predicts. O shit, WHAT IF us smart people do all sleep in one day..... we could die, we should probably start a system that ensures that at least one of us is up at all times, we should probably arrange this asap, you never know when all the smart people could feel lazy for a day. I'll take first shift, you got second?

I heard the world will end in 2010 but that's obviously bullshit. we were supposed to die 300 years ago but look at us now! these people make me sick! they're just looking for attention and belief, when really they're just fat, lazy, 42 year olds who still live in their mothers basement and hve never done any thing with their lives!

Lol, love that rant but I heard that it its a giant Meteorite hurling towards earth. And the USA government ( Or someone with the technology ) is going to send a satellite into space that will have a gravitational pull. Making the meteorite pull away from the earths pull and shoot out into space and never come back....So I hear but until then im going to live my life =D, good rant any how lol

May. 22, 2008 | 12:31 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

That's a pretty far fetched idea there, sonny. But hey, whatever floats their boats, man. Maybe the gravitational pull will backfire and cause the meteorite to come to us faster. Them satellites don't like us, you know.

If we do die, i'll want to go to hell to tell Wolf Olinns what a terrible job he did.


May. 22, 2008 | 5:41 PM rocky13579 says:

A famous Renaissance guy (Leonardo?) said the world would end in 2060.

Actually, its scary that many of these "predictions" come true. This one guy said for 14 years an empire would rule with an iron fist, ending with a tragic death. I think he said like... 3 people or something: "Na" "Pol" and "Leon" (which when said quickly says Napoleon, as in Napoleon Bonaparte, who did in fact rule for 14 years abd meet a tragic death.)

May. 24, 2008 | 3:07 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

The funny thing about 'predictions' is the fact that the only predictions people pay attention to are the ones that come true. There's so many bullshit predictions that no one's ever heard of because people want to believe there's more to life, that there's something magical to be found under all the blatantly obvious stuff. I'm not about to say this prediction or that is false or true, as I'm no judge on concrete truth, but it does seem that most people buy into these predictions very, VERY easily and it's a little... pathetic? It's easy to complain about the world and wish for it to go away, but it NEVER WILL and people need to realize that the world is what you make of it, good or bad.


May. 22, 2008 | 8:58 PM BTtalentscout says:

End of the world huh. LOL why do so many freaks by into this shit. I mean honestly this is the err.... (gotta count on my fingers cuz I suk at math) well cant figure out how many times but to many some freak said it was coming. Love the picture by the way spike looks great in facial hair.BTW I likey the rambling I love to ramble and love it when others ramble. Speaking of rambling when is heart and the hand 2 coming out cuz Im looking forward to it. and congrats on king of the portal keep it up. RAMBLING FTW

May. 24, 2008 | 3:11 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

Really? I had no idea. See, I hardly ever watch 'under judgement' entrees, as I'm too busy doing other things. I mean, my internet connection is a crap 56 k, so if I'm going to spend time loading something, it should be something that I won't regret watching. Not that I walk away from every high scoring entree happy, no, but the odds are better than watching some 6 MB piece of shit that's only a bullshit picture with a badly optimized song playing in the background. I hate that shit.

i'm glad you talk about how stupid the whole "2000 Prediction" and "2012 Prediction" is. I heard another rumor that 6/6/06 was going to be the end of the world as well, but that proved to just be nothing but jibberish. The only real doomsday that people have predicted is when the sun grows huge and engulfs the planet in thousands of years, but there's no logical reason there should be something between them. I hate those annoying predictions probably as much as you do.

Arg I say! Arg! What's all this blasphemy about the world ending? What I want to know is why people keep spreading all this misinformation on the whole Mayan thing? No idea where the idea of the world ending came from, but from what I recall, the Mayan calendar DOESN'T end, but actually starts over into a new world age. Its just like our calender, except on a MUCH longer time period. Technically speaking, theres supposed to be some sort space alignment of the stars which would basically just meet at some certain point, putting us right in the middle of it (Kinda like when our solar system planets align one right behind the other).

That date is just supposed to be when that calendar happens to reach the beginning again, which will be the 5, 6, or 7th time. Can't recall which.
Also, if I'm not mistaken, I think the Egyptian Book of the Dead also refers to this date somewhere. Thought I don't remember where or why exactly.
Anyways, enough of my nonsense, as now I'm beginning to ramble....

Rambling is ok, though! It's all I ever do, so you're in good company. And I'm not going to act like some history professor (or even someone who remotely knows anything on the topic), all I know is people like to jump on whatever popular mass-destruction-of-the-world theory becomes popular and it's annoying. As hell. Those people need a better hobby than reading too far into something and hoping for it to somehow be true.

HEY MAN! i heven't talked to you in awhile. Its probaly because of Grand theft Auto 4 i've been playing it non stop and i fear for the loss of my sanity meaning i can't think of anything else but this game. WELL THEN I DECIDED TO ACTUALLY PAUSE THE GAME AND GET ON NEWGROUNDS AND COMMENT YOU :) Oh this 2012 stuff seems fun when this year does happen i hope zombies over run the world so i can reinact DEADRISNG and some Resident Evil games. My plan would be to run to the nearest mall with surviors and barriacade the doors. I would hope to see you there but i live in Ohio so i don't see that happening.
Well i feel better now i can feel my sanity comming back to me ... so i'm just going to lose it again.
AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TELL JONNY I SAID HI. i don't know why

May. 26, 2008 | 3:59 AM Bobert-Rob responds:

I'll try to. Although I don't think Johny knows you, so I don't think telling him you said hi will really matter. I'll do so if I think about it, though. And have fun playing GTA 4, dear sir. God of the gate. Creator and overseer of all things gatey. Crackah.

THE WAYS WE ARE GOING TO DIE: Pick one of the following:
McCain leads us into war.[]
Obama takes our money and gives it to homeless people.[]
Clinton does exactly what Bill did, screw up our country.[]
Iraq will poison our food and water so they can take our country.[]
We will destroy and bash each others brains out because of gas and oil.[]
Bush fucks up while we are paying attention to the current race.[]
Nuclear Warfare.[]
HOW WE WON'T DIE BUT EVERYONES SCARED ABOUT: Pick all that fit in category:
A meteor will hit us and destroy us all.
We will be hurtled into the sun.
The earth will shatter into a million pieces.(DEFINITE MAYBE)
Retarded flying chickens will fall out of the sky and kill us all.

Yea.

2012 could either be absolutely nothing, or from what I've heard, a massive solar storm will happen that will either *somehow* cause a wave of natural disasters in which of the likes we've never seen since the creation of the first life forms, or some crazy theory that our planet, or our earth will line up with the sun and our galaxy's black hole and get sucked into said black hole. I however believe that this is made up by a couple of yiffy bastards looking to scare the shit out of people. Its like saying that tomorrow, we will rapidly evolve into abnormally large chinchillas and then get attacked by meatball people from the andromeda galaxy. A fun fact about the andromeda galaxy is that it will one day destroy our entire galaxy by colliding with it. But by then we humans will be long gone. Im talking 2.9 billion years from now. But people are just using 2012 as a way to make a quick buck (or pound) by selling books and t-shirts about it that basically exclaims to everyone, " Hey! look at me! I'll be ready for doomsday with my red t-shirt and hardcover book! this was the best buy of my life! It only cost me $140!" If this was true, it would be on the news. Is it?....No.It is NOT TRUE.If these people really cared they would give this info away for free. Not in a book. So if anyone is worrying about the end of the world in the year 2012, slap yourself as hard as you can and get some common sense. :3

I like your theory of becoming space monkeys on an eariler reply, which would work with the 'end of the current age of man' theory too. Oh, and they'll figure out that the Mayan calander actually goes until 2009 instead and everyone will be ZOMG.

some one said to me that the world was going to end... i was seven back then... he said that the world's computers will malfunction and something about Y2K or something... mascot guys...

Yep, they're silly little crackers, them is.

This 2012 stuff is bullshit your right its just going to be a new 2000 thing all over, people are going to say the devil will come and eat children but nothing will happen, nothing at all other people ramble on about 2072 which di vinchi theroized but chances are that's bull shit too

Exactly...the news don't give a crap whether or not it's storys, accuracy or even if it's true or not about things like the world's "END"...THEY.JUST.WANT.RATE-INGS and $.....and im so tired of seeing the the stuff on the news that thinks we "SHOULD DO" shit on fox, cbs, nbc (take yer pic THEY ALL SUCK) about how we:

SHOULD EAT

SHOULD LISTEN TO

SHOULD BUY

AND OF COURSE....SHOULD DRESS

And of course they quote the so called "Scientists" that THINK they know EVERYTHING.....it's like saying:"Mashed potato's are bad for your testicles...and i based this truly on nothing!"...I kid you not, a researcher (i forget where he was from) claims "Walking" INSTEAD of "jogging" is healthier....dude come on....one more of these damn false research ideas and I'm gonna kill someone....and even IF something THAT bad happens the news is just going tell people HOW it will happen and nothing to do with WHAT to do WHEN it happens...

My advice would be to just watch the news for: Weather, Sports, And interesting world events.
