from invisible vibrational frequency things eminating from the absense of anything happening.

I was merely pointing out that some things can't be seen and *seeing* "something" seems to be what the naysayers are calling as "nothing happened". This something/nothing business is really getting old. There is no way to prove that "nothing" happened because 1) we don't have a common definition of "nothing" (how many news stories of earth destruction would it take for you? or do you require other "somethings" as proof) and 2) if something happened that you could not see with your visible eyes you might be mistakenly labeling said something as a "nothing" regardless.

True, some things can't be seen but are there. Equally true is that some things that are percieved to be there are not there. They exist but only in your head. Quantifying this type of information so that others can understand is impossible. What you are experiencing is completly subjective and personal.

@ ZetaRediculian, you were the one that brought up straws to begin with. Again, I was mirroring. Just a reflection.

did I? I dont think I did but that doesn't change the fact that there are no straws anywhere.

Why would someone start a blog about "nothing happened"? I guess for the same reason the same people post on ATS over and over that "nothing has happened". Yes, I agree, people create blogs about "insignificant" things all the time.

so we are talking about the psychology of why people start lame blogs and repeat themselves while the world is ending due to vibrational radio wave frequencies that can't be seen or measured?

If you are trying to convince nobody, who are you posting to? Yourself?

yes. if anyone actually reads any of the nonsense I post then, well...I enjoy reading my posts. They are witty and fun and way over everyones head and a complete waste of time for those serious about this stuff.

If "nothing" has happened, may I suggest you are speaking for yourself and plenty of others obviously. I may suggest also that if "nothing" has happened in your micro-world, your reality, your perspective that I am sorry to hear that. Every day there is the opportunity for huge change, perhaps, just perhaps all of us "ramping up" to this 2012 "nonsense" was a natural human response to want to overcome the challenges we have ahead of us, such as cleaning up the planet, implementing clean energy sources, being healthy in mind and body (and spirit), educating our children better, ending pointless wars, and generally learning to love ourselves and other beings

Well maybe someone should have organized a music festival or something. I don't disagree with your sentiment. I think the issue with the 2012 thing is that it was surrounded with so much BS. There is nothing significant about the date. It was just a date that focused on and given meaning to arbitrarily. Like for us folk that have jobs, Friday means something. Or a birthday or a holiday.
Tomorrow is Christmas. There will be billions focused on that one day. It happens every year all over the world. A day to remeber some religious figures birthday by giving each other cool things and getting drunk. how cool is that?

I just realized that since the collective conscious of the world was focused on this one day where something was supposed to happen and nothing happend, that means the collective was focused on nothing happening therefore ensuring nothing happend collectively. Its almost as if the "collective" willed nothing to happen. Truly an amazing event.

So what we have is a paradox. Something happend which was nothing. I can sense it now.

Except you'll have to some how figure out how many people it was.

Certainly here where I live, most of the population was like: 2012? What? Oh that movie, right?

In other words, all but a handful of people that I know here in real life didn't even give the 21st a 2nd thought.

Are you saying you talk to actual people and they talk back to you?

Yah, it's the really cool thing called: Socializing.

Been around a long, long time before the Internets, Facebook, iPhone apps........shucks, my great-great-great-great......well you get the idea, granddaddy used to spend a few hours at the general store actually talking to people.

I never said frequencies were a separate entity from radio waves. I am aware radio waves are composed of wavelengths and frequencies of energy.

There is nothing special about "frequencies" and "wavelengths", they are physical quantities, nothing more. Radio waves are not "composed of frequencies and wavelengths" and more than you are composed of "height".

There are frequencies that we don't even have tools to measure such invented yet; that doesn't mean "nothing" is there.

This is an utterly nonsensical statement. It's a common theme of woo hoos to willingly bastardize science and scientific terminology in an attempt to legitimize their beliefs and make them appear scientific but will run a country mile away from science when it contradicts their claims and beliefs. You can't have it both ways: you either dismiss science outright and just go ahead and claim you believe in magic or you use scientific method to discard beliefs and opinions that are contradicted by reality. It would appear that the latter is too intimidating for some.

Sorry to inform you the "scientific method" is incomplete. It is never complete. There will always be more to discover.

Go ahead and deny and debunk all you want. The fact that you do does not discount the existence of [insert something here as yet unidentified and unmeasurable by CURRENT TECHNOLOGY].

Just because you cannot measure something does not mean it is not there!

Unless you are claiming, like the Timewave Zero theory by Terrence McKenna, that we are at a point of maximum novelty and there is nothing else to discover or measure, that no further technology will ever be developed, that humanity is already at the point of "perfection" then I don't care to respond to the arrogant posts and defenses (including the many misunderstandings of my posts I can't re-explain over and over) anymore.

It's tiresome, it gets old, and if you want to go ahead and blindly think "nothing" happened (and therefore assume "nothing will ever happen") then be my guest. I can see how it might be temporarily more comfortable to live that way.

I am at a complete loss to understand what you think happened on the 21st. best i can figure you think it was something that was not detectable or understandable.

why do you think that people assume nothing will ever happen? I assume prophecies dont come true. I assume there is no magic and people dont have magical powers. I concluded before the 23rd that nothing would happen on the 23rd and that if anything did happen, it would have been due to random chance anyway. Nothing happend and we are left with imaginary "frequecies".

Are we looking at something akin to a placebo effect? some kind of phantom perception?

Everyone is trying to get to the bar
The name of the bar, the bar is called heaven
The band in heaven, they play my favourite song
Play it one more time, play it all night long

Heaven, heaven is a place, a place where nothing, nothing ever happens
Heaven, heaven is a place, a place where nothing, nothing ever happens

There is a party, everyone is there
Everyone will leave at exactly the same time

When this party's over, it will start again
It will not be any different, it will be exactly the same
Heaven, heaven is a place, a place where nothing, nothing ever happens

When this kiss is over it will start again
It will not be any different, it will be exactly the same
It's hard to imagine that nothing at all could be so exciting, could be this much fun
Heaven, heaven is a place, a place where nothing, nothing ever happens
Heaven, heaven is a place, a place where nothing, nothing ever happens

-talking heads

And so speaking as a prophet of nothing will happen I am once again proven correct. Nothing happened. You will not smell fear in this post but you may come away with a feeling that I am gloating and in that case you can pat your self on the back because you would be correct ! LOL.
