This 19/5/13 Shit...

[TheRightToArmBears]

It's the new apocalypse theory.

I knew they'd come up with a Plan B.

There is no plan B.

Spoiler

Probably /b/ is up to something... The bastards.

rules 1 and 2

Rule 20, your argument is invalid.

not taken seriously, i just would prefer less cancer that is all. think of it more like this "(nonchalant tone) *sigh* rules one and two". but with kongregate still in existence i guess it dosn't matter.

From people who've beaten senseless through the magic medium we call Online videogames I've been told to expect anonymous on the 19th of May, 2013 because apparently they don't forget or something. That I assume was an attempt to try to get me believe that in a bit less than three years the Internet hate machine was going to go beat down my door and steal me away in the night. Truth is it's just some spoiled 15 year old trying to re-inflate his bruised ego by acting tough, but that's the only experience I've had with this strange date.

When the date does roll around nothing will happen. This is probably just something to work people up into a frenzy similar to that 2012 shit. If /b/ actually wanted to do something they would have done it without advertising the fact on fucking napkins so don't worry about it folks.

TROLOLOLOLOLOLOL, I could tell you all EXACTLY where it originated.

..But, I'm not going to.

All I'm gonna say is, I have 4 cans of soup, but the cans say 'chan' of soup.

Rule 8. STFU and GTFO

 

[gunny god]

rule 8 dose not apply here. also rules 25 and 26 are taking greater effect. which I'm sure is the intent of many on this thread

It's a 4chan troll. Ignore it, and don't feed it.

It's something to do with 4Chan. I dare not venture further. Don't know how the hell it's got on money though.

FOX says not to worry about it. HOLY FUCKING SHIT WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE IN THE 90TH DIMENSION!!!!!1!

Australia uses the DD/MM/YYYY convention also, but that's obvious as we're still part of the commonwealth

19/5/13? Isn't that the Hunter Build for Cataclysm before they locked us into one tree?

Something's gonna happen on the 19th month of 2013?

We write our dates day month year in the order of how large they are. We dont write month day year because it makes no sense, this is probably britain hes talking about. Do all dates in america get written like that? That seems really really weird.

Europe: Little-endian dates - smallest unit first, easy enough to remember and pretty intuitive (fits other conventions like little-endian postal addresses)
USA: Middle-endian dates - just because.
Japan: Big-endian dates - makes as much sense as little endian, with the added bonus that sorting lexically is the same as sorting by date - a lot of programs that include a datestamp in filenames therefore use this format.

I actually don't know about the rest of the world, anyone care to enlighten me about Asia, Africa, the rest of the Americas?

When you look at a global map, Asia is the giant blob between North America and Europe, Africa is the big blob below Europe, and South America is, well, SOUTH of America.

*listening to some offstage whispers*

Oh, that's not what he was asking, was it? [sub]Fuck off, I'm positive that's what he was asking about.[/sub]

Anyways, that's the date when something happens, somewhere, for some reason, because someone thought it was something to do. Or it's when the aliens show and scream 'PRANKED!' about the whole 'God' thing.

I dunno. I'm just causing trouble.

And, from a records perspective, the only date order that would actually make sense would be year/month/day.

It's done that way in Japan.
