What the hell is it with this statement?
It seems that so many posters believe that when they post this statement with their threads of "DOOM", "FEAR", "APOCALYPSE" "2012!" and on and on and on..., it's the only statement they have to make on a poorly constructed and researched OP.
"This is it" and "SO IT BEGINS!"...WTH?
What makes you so knowledgeable that you can proclaim the end of the World with your simple 4 word statement and then just leave it at that? As if that's all that needs to be said with no discussion, argument,etc?
This is nothing but an attempt to gain stars and flags with no knowledge, research or insight of the subject at hand.
In the last few weeks I have personally witnessed at least 30 threads with "And so it begins" titles or opening content. What is beginning? How do you know? What makes it so? Most of these threads are only one or two sentences with one source (Maybe) and that's it. And then "And So It Begins!".
We all know what is happening in the World. We all know how close we are to WW3. We all know about the encroaching Police State. I myself have posted many threads on these very subjects.
But believe me when I say that when it truly begins, you won't have the chance to post it. So quit the drama and let's discuss what's REALLY happening so that when it is TRULY beginning, no one will cry wolf.
Peace

These are the words of a person who still doesn't get it. Here is what being blind will do for you. He doesn't understand. He lashes out against doom and gloom because after all the warnings and all the evidense, he still doesn't get it. I suppose there be some that have to actually die in the process before they get it.
"And so it begins". But you don't know what's beginning. Was you one who continually battered the messengers and muddied the water when people were trying to get the word out?
Please, someone tell him what it is. He may be ready to understand now. He seems confused. That's a good sign.

I know right!!! It seriously pisses me off... I used to admire this place for all the info and articles but the kind of things you mentioned is occurring a lot. All I do is yell at people on posts. I cant stand the place I love being destroyed with false info.
What the hell is it with this statement?...
