I had totally forgotten about the 2012 conspiracy until Izzy brought it up. Was it the Mayans or the Aztecs who made the original prediction?
Anyway, those sorts of conversations are one of the reasons I'm happy I don't really have any "co-workers". I'd much rather discuss zombie invasions with grade schoolers than listen to some nutjob's theories about the apocalypse. (One of the perks of being an atheist, is I don't have to give a damn about the end of the world, 'cause it'll be, you know: THE END! :P)
Your students also seem better-prepared to deal with end times, once they get over the transparent hiding places. (-;
That just may have been the cutest thing one of them has ever said to me! It's at least tied with: "I accidentally borrowed your highlighter."
