Everytime he says, "Hey, Thoughty2 here", I hear, "Hey, Fourty2 here".
I heard 42...
He’s not saying 42?!? I’ve watched like 7 of this guys videos and was like why does he call himself 42??
It's so hard to tell. I thought he was saying thoughty2, but I was hearing 42. Maybe he is actually saying 42?
He explains in an old video that he does secretly say 42.
That explains that, thank you
I hope to leave the world the same way my grandfather did; quietly, peacefully in his sleep, not screaming and crying in terror like the passengers in his car at the time...
I laughed at this one.
Sorry about your grandfather, but damn that was funny.
I didn’t expect this. 😂
I refuse to leave quietly
You have a good sense of humor. You would go a long way. God bless you

That story in the beginning warmed my heart. So happy for those who do survive and are given second chances from cancer, disease, accidents, trauma. Etc.
I was programming computers back in 1981 when I was 31 years old. I figured that the worst thing that would happen in 2000 was that the computers would enter the wrong date/time stamp on documents, checks, inventories, etc.
And I was just being born
The problem was that it could cause problems like not dispensing money to an organisation because the time/ date stamp wouldn't happen, we were actually lucky that they foresaw this or it could of caused a lot of pandemonium

A great book on this issue is called "when prophecy fails".
Read it back in college 30 years ago and it shows how failure just reinforces belief.
It applies not just to end of the world and religion, but to political cults as well.
King James Bible Matthew 24:36
Christ, "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
Matthew 24, for the whole story
Exactly. A story.

When people tell me the world is ending I just say "yeah well the world has been ending since the beginning "
No seriously. The end is coming
I say something like that too and I am religious cause it's been the end times for over a 1000 years
@@youngbreadwinner2780 but...there was no end so the world has in fact been not ending until now. By end i mean the end of most ecosystems and life forms. The earth has cycles as god intended. Unfortunately we disrupted the natural harmony of our earth sun and moon by polluting the atmosphere and oceans and warming the global climates. These are our sins.
Its always the end for those who die everyday. Everyday its the end for many. The end for human slaves maybe due to robotics. Which means an all out genocide since they dont want to share all the resources they raped our lands for. Nope. So go ahead and keep believing all the covid lies n shit
Great point!!!! But can someone explain what ended the last Ice age! Hasn’t earth been heating up this whole time. Yes we may have speeded it up some but what about the Ice age!!!

@@bigbaz3740 I'm living in heaven XD no responsibilities nothing to bother myself with, just being exist at somewhere.
Actually, they don't want it to end. They're scared of it happening because they just want life to go on as normal. They're scared for their kids, so the news concerns them and their loved ones.
Tbh these times are getting gradually dystopic and the entropy/randomness is increasing at an accelerated rate, so regardless of the exact date, the world seems to be coming close to a major population reduction event of some sort if not an end altogether.
Funny story actually, my dad was one of the brave souls to stay in his office building on December 31st 1999 waiting for the new year. As the clock rolled around to 12 AM on January 1st 2000, he called his boss to confirm that absolutely nothing happened lol. Fast forward one month and 16 days and I was born!

@@josephocchipintivines well we know how your parents celebrated the new year
@Philip Dartez lol that's what I was thinking 😂
It's important to point out that a lot of work was done updating systems for Y2K before it happened, so who knows what could have happened otherwise.
You're right. My brother works in the City of London and told me that the reason Y2K did not happen is that a lot of people put in a lot of effort on this project and manged to overcome it in time. They do not get the credit they deserve.
I can't believe you idiots believe the idea of y2k like a computer is just gonna go I didn't exist in the early 1900s so.im going to shutdown what a farce
I used to think like that as that was the propaganda line after. Then I remembered that there would have been a shit ton of PCs in Africa and Latin America and other legacy systems and nothing happened there either. The computer support industry made Billions and Billions though.
@@marccas10 It was 1999. Poor people did not have $3-5k to spend on PC's.

The quickest way to know for a fact that someone doesn't know when the world will end, is if they tell you they know when the world will end.
Exactly
I think the world will enter the apocalypse (powers that be/elite induced) within the next 10-20 years. If they do not force the formation of a world government (New World Order) then humanity is doomed to kill itself through carelessness/being selfish. Water alone from the oceans will be undrinkable within 20-50 years due to microplastic pollution, and this is just a tiny example of catastrophic events that will plague the world. One of the reasons the earth is warming up is due to the aerosols (funnily known as chemtrails) which are tiny particles of all kinds of metals (hence it is sprayed in X patterns) to trap the heat on earth, leading to an accelerated climate disaster, which is one of the main cruxes upon which the New World Order will be formed. Just look up some speeches, plenty of US presidents, bankers, even Gorbachev speaking about "the necessity to form a New World Order" - aka an authoritarian world government that will control every aspect of future society. The technology is (almost) ready for it.
My mom was an old-school computer programmer, as in programs were on punch cards when she started lol. But I remember in 1999 I think she worked for Delta and spent practically the entire year leading up to Y2K doing nothing but editing code and databases to prepare. No one who knew what was going on was actually worried about anything bad happening, it was just annoying.
I'll never forget on New Years Eve of 2000. I was 10 and my parents were hosting a pretty wild party leaving us kids to our own devices. I'm not sure where I had heard it from, but somehow I knew about the supposed impending disaster that was to come. I had been trying not to think about it, but as it got closer to midnight I started to become more and more distressed. I can remember looking around at everybody laughing and having a good time, kids running and playing and I just sat on the couch feeling so melancholy and wondering how they could be so carefree. Eventually I went to my parents bedroom and started crying. My friend found me and ran and told my Mom I was crying. I didn't feel any better until my Mom explained that there were different time zones and other country's had already had their Y2K and nothing happened, lol.
the problem with end by midnight bullcrap is that countries have different timezone
Mom was wise to explain it like that🧐🥲
A friend of mine had a new year's party that year and snuck away to the breaker box and switched everything off. Some people gasped, but no one screamed. I laughed and said, "Good one, Scott." We had been discussing the impending doom all night, including wondering which country/time zone was going to trigger "the end."
As far as I’m concerned 2000 was the end and things haven’t been the same since....I miss last century
I was at a rave cheering with a few hundred other people. One of the best times of my life
The end of the Mayan Calendar signified
That it was time to get a new Mayan calendar
The reason the Mayan calendar "ends" with the 13th b'ak'tun is that the vast majority of Maya texts were destroyed by Catholic priests, and there aren't any surviving ones that include the 14th b'ak'tun.
The stone was broken or they broke it 2023 those who will be saved r already picked maybe
Actuaaly, wasn't that when Hostess stopped making Twinkies?
Mayan: Look! We invented a way to track the passage of time through the movement of the sun the moon and the stars !
I'll call it a calendar, and carve as much of it as far as the stone can hold onto it...!
American from the future: Is the date when the carvings end going to signify the end of all existence? ...because, in addition to being a world-class innovator, I'm assuming that you are also the most accurate and long reaching psychic that will ever have existed.
Mayan: Man, you people from the future are STUuuPid !
American from the future: Survival is too easy in the future, so we're just always bored. :/
@@RedXlV The end of the 13th is the beginning of the 1st in a new cycle, just like the full moons in a solar year. December 22, 2012 was just New Year’s Day on a massive scale.
I am solidly in the middle of 2021, and I can confidently say that an apocalyptic end to the world has not happened. Just an pandemic, and that too shall pass.
Big bang theory fan? Lol

@@johnruiz6743 nope the world is still here. Just not them.
@@soldier1913 there’s a w a r
7:58 I grew up as a Jehovah’s Witness and they predicted that the end would come in 1975. I wasn't born until 1980, so I wasn't there for any of the hype. My parents and older JWs try to pretend that there was no prediction, and that only a few nutcases believed that it would happen. But I've looked it up, it's right there in their own literature.
Ouch... Sorry about that...
my dad told me this funny story once about the y2k scare that happened before i was born (was born on 5/23/2000)
apparently my grandpa on my dads side was terrified of this prediction. he managed to freak out the entire family and they all went out and got supplies that could last the family months and months. well on new years my entire while everyone was stationed around the tv waiting for the ball to drop scared out of their minds my dad managed to slip away and hustle to the basement where the breaker box was, he listened very carefully and when the person on the tv yelled happy new year, my dad flipped the breaker shutting off power to the whole house. scared the living shit out of the entire family everyone got a good laugh afterwards except for my grandpa who tried to throw hands with my dad
Brilliant gag!
My son was born the exact same day as you.💎
Lol, Nice one
You're 5 months older than me. It's interesting to be born the same year that the world was supposed to end.
@@NoName-ms8jb ...and (for at least PART of each year) your age is the same as the year. So you must be 20 years old.
Why do people care to predict the end? You can only be told you were wrong, never that you were right
And the one person who does get it right won't be around to receive credit because... the world ended and no one is left to congratulate him/her.
Because it draws the attention of a lot of people who then buy your books, watch your videos and so on. There's money to be made there for the unscrupulous.

The world will end. According to the scriptures. It will be destroyed by fire next time. Not a flood. The reason we should know is so we understand there is no time to wait to get things right between you and God. Forget organized religion! Get right with God in your heart. Because this world doesn’t have forever. And neither do we.

Funny, just watched this and it said the Mayan’s “end of the world” was June 21 2020. Maybe they only predicted the current pandemic 🤷
Actually, the end of Mayan's calendar didn't probably meant the end of the world or anything except for end of calendar itself. They just didn't had enough space, and would have been drawn a new calendar if they would survive and keep their culture. We still have paper calendars, which usually end on 31 December, every year, and that is just end of the calendar, not the world. Taking into account that largest unit of time in Mayan calendar was around 394 years, no wonder they had a calendar for some centuries ahead.
@@IulianYT man I was making a joke. Obviously they have limited space
Well it goes to wonder about the obvious way out of order 'pan' last year is causing rippling effect this year, I said last year when this stuff was being brainwashed from the so called media, that a year later (being now) prices will double and pharmaceuticals will be preying on people along with almost total gov control over people, free money etc, yeah the plan they been developing taking hold, controlling everything we do, just saying what I was calling for last year a week into the crap, which how long it should've only lasted, just look back up till now and you'll see, the 2020 predict could been the starting ripple...
It was 2012 not 2020!
Thanks to everyone who took my joke seriously.

*In the unlikely case where the world didn’t actually end on the specified date, please re-read the first sentence.

I was paralyzed in a car accident 25 yrs ago,lost my best friend instantly,all feeling below the waist,I thought " This is the end of my world,I'm only 29, I haven't really lived!" But what I did find is we as humans can truly adapt to any scenario,be it lack of control of our lower extremities( a mere drop in the bucket of bad things that could happen to us ,I know) to the population controlling super viruses that have recently appeared. It's not that bad being paralyzed- I often joke, " nobody asks me to help them move ,and the only thing worse than moving yourself, is helping someone else!" Obviously in poor taste, but it's the little things in life that can often help soften the blows that life, or someone's death that we know,are thrown to us. Keep up the great videos,these are interesting enough to keep me from ever considering the alternatives in my life.Im glad to be here,this earth is constantly changing,and Im finding at 50 yrs.old, luckily,change is here to stay....

Hey, Thoughty2. First and foremost, just wanted to say that I've loved all of your content that I've seen so far. :)
On the Herbert W. Armstrong/WWCG front, I also wanted to add that it was soooo refreshing to see him eviscerated like that. :D I was adopted into that cult at 2 weeks of age and it (along with my sheep-like adoptive parents) really tried their best to ruin my life. It was awful, and the ignorance/hypocrisy was utterly mind blowing.
Finally, just wanted to point out that while your screenshots during the Y2K segment were of Linux and/or UNIX operating systems (at least in part), that particular set of operating systems did not suffer from the Y2K bug. They do, however, have a similar limited foresight in date schemes coming up in the future here that will introduce significant difficulties. The Y2K bug was mainstream primarily due to the preponderance of Microsoft's DOS & Windows environments. :)
Keep up the awesome work!
Rapture was not a thing for him. Thought that those were the time(s) when he thought were the time of the of the return of JESUS. He was wrong, not a surprise.
WWCG is mentioned in Thoughty2’s Bobby Fischer video as well, as Fischer was briefly involved. I can relate to your bitterness. Though the hypocrisy pales in comparison to the hundreds of thousands killed by the Kathalik church, the number of guys I knew growing up in the WWCG who offed themselves is pretty high. I even tried myself. I thank God every day that I found true freedom away from that scene.

Clearly you don't believe in the soul/spirit, and the fact that everything is madet of energy, including humans, energy can't ever die, hu.ans can not die ever, a person's subconscious is a piece of God, the whole collective unconscious of existence is the whole God, there is nothing but God, and we are all immortal. Before God there was no thing, and after God there is no thing, it is the unconscious that conceives and creates things, without that there is no thing. We never die, no one ever dies, they just shed their worn out human clothes and join the paradise that is God - the collective unconscious.
I agree, except none of us are here for a reason. The universe does not care there is no grand plan for us.

No, he was just old and already dying and few people in those days lived into their 80s or longer. He didn't say he would die on the next day anyway, after all, he was born 2 months after the comet came the time before, he was probably expecting to die some time in the next year.

Nope.
starting a few years before 2000 a programmer friend of mine who was out of a job managed to survive on contracts to analyze and correct code for possible problems. By that time, all the legacy programs were written in Assembler or COBOL and there were few programmers who understood those languages.
Well, I was one of the many that worked on the Y2K problem
Be aware the problem was mainly in Mainframe computers and not PC's
Mainframes (since 50's) are much older than PC's (since 80's)
We found enough problems and either scrapped the programs or repaired them.
-
We were not afraid that the world would end.
We were afraid that older programs would crash.
At that time it was still very normal to use a 2-digit year code.
I know many programs that used a 2-digit year code.
And even 99.99% of the crashes would most likely not be a real problem
But what if the one program that was a problem happens to be your Cooling control in your Nuclear power plant?
That might not be a nice thing.
Do not forget that at the same moment ALL these same programs will crash simultaneously.
No doubt the rest of the safety software of the Nuclear power plant will safely shutdown the plant.
Yeah, *all* of them, at the same time and all over the country!

For us the most dangerous thing was actually the fact that nobody knew how many programs would be affected and what would happen.
Now, who wants to take the responsibility and say "Nah, if something goes wrong you can sue me"?

So we repaired them all
It is quite funny that our obvious success is now treated as if Y2K was nothing at all.
It was nothing at all because we made sure it would not be anything!
The best thing you could have done was to leave a few programs unrepaired and let them fail. Just a few strategically chosen to cause a little chaos, but not a catastrophe.
I guess that's the literal definition of "Not all heroes wear capes".
One of the difficulties was that much of the main frame business software had been written in the dead programming language Cobol. And a lot of programmers (now called coders) had to get up to speed on Cobol quickly and temporally. Not a way to further your career.
My Mother was going to fly to Florida to visit my brother on December 31 1999 and would be on the plane at midnight. I made a joke about Y2K on Christmas, somehow it was the first time that my Father had heard of it. He insisted that she go by Amtrak instead. She did; they stopped the train at midnight as a precaution. Amtrak from Massachusetts to Florida! My Mother swore she would never step onto another train.
doug randall, I loved traveling by train until I went from Oakland, CA, to Milwaukee, WI, with a restless toddler in tow.
We flew back.

I remembered on that day in 1999 i was 8 years old and my mom turned off the tv, turned off the lights and had me lay down in the living room with her to go to sleep and wouldn’t tell me why. It was so weird. Then fast forward i asked her what that was about and my guess was right. Y2k
My uncle was a programmer who was hired by some major companies (banks, airplane manufacturors etc.) to fix the y2k bug. Nothing happened only because billions were invested to prevent disaster. Making it seem like this was on par with the nutter conspiracies is just wrong.
The Mayans didn't say how their calendar ends, because it doesn't. The end of the 13th b'ak'tun wasn't the end of anything, but that b'ak'tun. We are now in the 14th b'ak'tun. The Mayan calendar is a bunch of cycles. Dec 21st, 2012 was when all the cycles ended at the same time and began again. No end, just a constant cycle.
From Wikipedia: In 2012, researchers announced the discovery of a series of Maya astronomical tables in Xultún, Guatemala which plot the movements of the Moon and other astronomical bodies over the course of 17 bʼakʼtuns.

I was born (in 1987, after all five predictions had already failed) as the third generation of a family who lived and breathed H. W. Armstrong’s teachings. It’s easy to laugh at the insanity of believing these prophecies, but I get it. For people who are terrified of death and the future, banking on the possibility of a sure thing gives some semblance of control. Great video, thanks!
To say that the Earth’s magnetic field to swap is “overdue” is actually incorrect. There’s no predictor available today that is able to conjure up a “due-date” for its next cycle. Overdue would imply that we have a grasp on its inner workings as to make that a statement accurate.

Talking about Y2K bug to people, who may not know what it was, makes me feel so old. I was one of the programmers reviewing and fixing code before. What makes me feel even older is that I was fixing my own COBOL code written a couple of decades earlier.
There was a girl chatting me up at a bar a few months back and some story about 9/11 was on the TV above the bar... I mentioned the old thing about "Everyone remembers exactly where they were and what they were doing when they found out, it was our generations version of the Kennedy news".. And she was like "I don't remember, I was 3 years old." and it freaked me the fuck out. Lol
You stayed at one company for two decades? That makes you an unusual programmer for those days, unless you worked for a manufacturer such as IBM. I was involved in converting tape files and the programs that would read and write them to squeeze the extra byte (if packed decimal) or two (if character format) inside every date field; and then scheduling the conversion process to make the cutover to new files and programs seamless. All of that code was written by people before me (while I was leaving code at other companies for my successors to fix).
One project I worked on early in my career in the seventies was, however, designed to account for four digit years from scratch; a couple of hundred people worked on that one.
I wrote a 20 page paper in high school about the Y2K bug. I thought planes were going to fall out of the sky and we were going to go back to the Stone age! All my research was from internet blogs (I've since learned the internet is not a good research source!). I was so convincing I got my siblings to stay home New Year's Eve and stock up on food. Boy did I look foolish when NOTHING happened!
I just remember all the sitcoms having their y2k related episodes around that time. Didn't pay much attention beyond that. My grandparents did move to a farm up north to escape the burning of the cities because of it, though.
And I was starting my second day of 8th grade on 9/11. My teacher already had the TV cart ready with the news on showing it in progress.
People were saying that cars would no longer start/work. I answered " why did the car care about the date, it had no link to the engine management ". Very few products had an issue with the date, mostly the banks/financial businesses who got onto it very quickly ( unless they could make a profit from the disruption, Telling the sheeple caused a disruption that they did profit from. )

Y2K was silly but it was the most memorable new years party that year. Everyone was so happy that the lights were on that most of our neighborhood were banging pots and pans and parading around the block yelling Happy New Year! It was so much fun!

@@saintinnluvsew8813 definitely not. There were many parties... sometimes people decide to party when the end is near instead of hide or prep.
If the y2k bug was ignored, it would have caused a lot of major issues, some very serious... But since many hours were spent fixing these bugs in the years prior, the majority of them were avoided.

Y2K: me and my brother hiding in the basement with cases of Pepsi and a Super Nintendo.
some facts about the yk2 bug. It was a clear and very present danger. What you have to remember is that the life span of computers AND software was expected to be a maximum of 5 years. Companies paid a small fortune for computers and ruined that theory. The Y2k bug itself was avoided by a huge army of software developers who work incredibly hard to fix it. Its due to those people that the yk2 bug was a none event. I know this because I was privileged to have been able to work with some of these incredibly talented people
Cold take: Y2k wasn't blown out of proportion. There was just hundreds of thousands of invisible hours at work that nobody noticed.
Hopefully the same thing will be true for 2036.

At 11.30 pm on December 31st 1999 I telephoned the MET (London police) information line and asked: "Is it the Millennium tomorrow?" The reply I got was: "No ... but 99% of people believe it is ... it's best to go along with it." Greenwich Observatory stated clearly (on their website) that the Millennium was January 1st 2001 ... but the Media ... the newspapers, television, and radio, were all telling people it was January 1sr 2000. In early January ... when the newspapers reappeared ... they heralded the new ,,, 21st century. In the early 90s an MP was laughed at in Parliament for saying that the Millennium date was January 1st 2000.

People have an underlying, fetishized desire and fascination with the "end of the world". We see it with our obsession with zombie movies and games, movies about pandemics, and the countless monster and alien invasion movies. While feigning fear, we secretly want to see an apocalypse happen due to dissatisfaction with our mundane reality, so that we can be one of survivors and have some real excitement. For example, with COVID, we saw that we're actually nowhere near prepared or mature enough to deal with a *real*, potential world ender. We saw panic-buyers cosplaying as survivalists when buying enough toilet paper for a lifetime; but oddly enough no bottled water, water purifiers, canned goods, portable generators, or first aid kits. Further, when it turned out that staying home was the best measure (as opposed to any Road Warrior scenario), these same tough guys whined about it being too hard. If COVID were half as deadly as some feared, we'd have a couple billion dead and no alien species watching us would feel pity.
This comment deserves to outrank all others and be shown as a foreclosure across each and all media.
and people still refused to wear masks, even to save their own lives
don't talk about surviving invasions yet, you can't even protect yourself from saliva with virus
Its crazy because people from hundreds of years ago dealt with pandemics and catastrophic events better than we are now, just goes to show humanity has taken two steps back
well, it's survival for the fittest now, and by fittest I mean smartest
UwU Not really, the Black Death was so deadly due to the fact that people didn't know how to deal with it. There were a lot of weird things they did like wearing chicken feet as a necklace, keeping decaying dead people on the street and used perfume to make it all better, thinking that if they don't smell the decay, it won't affect their health. They also had worse imune systems, once again, due to not knowing what to eat the way we know what is healthy for us. So we went a long way and that is why the covid is not as bad.
So after watching this video I got an idea for a future video: 'Why do people join cults?' It is quite baffling how people think and then they join cults and sects (what's the difference between a cult and a sect really?), and to me it is just crazy. I guess it is part of that mentality humans have about belonging somewhere.
Also, who is the scummiest? The radio show host who talks about the end of the world while telling listeners to send in money. Or the radio station that lets him/her use their station for this? Honestly I'm a bit split between these two, then again the talk show host could probably do that from his own house or something.

What I find amazing is that the Bible specifically says that anyone who claims to know the date of the end of the world who is then proven false is not a prophet. That's the literal meaning of the 'beware false prophets..."
Yet, every time it happens, the people who follow the "prophet" still believe in them after they are proven wrong.
It's why conspiracies are rampent, people want to know things others don't, even if so many conspiracies are directly in opposition to each other. I won't believe the world will end or the Illuminati exist until there is proof beyond any reasonable doubt that it exists.

Funny people like that go to the Bible to try and "crack the code" of when Jesus is returning, but skip right over the part where Jesus says that no one knows. He says that not even the angels or he himself know when the rapture will happen, only God. Please don't think because of these foolish men that all Christians are like that. There are still some of us who have common sense. Just because someone says they are a Christian doesn't mean they are a real one.
