    Guys, my current calendar ends after January 2027. Tell your friends that’s when the world ends!

    According to my Nintendo Wii, the last date is Dec 31st, 2035. So just less than a decade away from the end of the world!

    The 2012 apocalypse notion was apparently not even based on an accurate idea of the Mayan calendar, though, honestly, if the world had ended in 2012 the Mayans would have done us a favor tbqh

      Fun fact Mayan numerals are base 20 and have one of the earliest uses of the concept of zero
