WW3? Second coming of Christ? Nigel Farage for PM?

@AnyFucker

I know this is meant to be a lighthearted thread and I am not usually a doom monger but...

I think there will be a terrorist attack over the holiday period. A big one. Sorry.

Not a big one - too difficult to move stuff around this year. I think you're right to remember that other threats have not gone away.

The warning at the start of the month was for self-initiated attacks in 'less obvious' locations

A series of smaller attacks (probably not in tier 4) could still be devastating

The opening first 15 minutes of “London has Fallen” .

Nightingale hospitals will reopen and not be able to get enough staff to run them despite the queues of people outside.
Trump will issue himself and his family a Pardon against any past, present or future crimes in return for walking away from the White House.
Trump may refuse to leave the White House.
Schools will stay open but everyone inside will be wearing masks. Teachers will be blamed for the spread of covid.
My grandchild will be born and waking before I get to see him or her.
Can you tell I am really fed up??

I struggle to think of anything worse than what we are enduring now. (Obviously everyone has their own personal hardships and disasters, I mean as a country).

Walking not waking

Boom tish!!!

Honestly if a zombie walked past my window now, I would be "meh" and turn Netflix up 🤷🏽‍♀️
2020, the year that just keeps giving. I should have known when lockdown was announced on my birthday

We have had fires, locusts, plague, wasn't there a tsunami? , riots (sort of), food shortages, royal family rift...what else is there?

Ursula the sea witch?

Shinyletsbebadguys · 21/12/2020 23:54

Zombies is my bet

Although given we have just had the recurring star of Bethlehem that brings a whole new load of oh fucks to the world.

The last time that happened was responsible for how many wars in the name of religion?

I think I'd prefer the zombies.

Death of the queen.
Particularly if the new variant makes lockdown measures ineffective.

Tiers for Fears...Shout, shout, let it all out...these are the things I can do without...

UrghThisIsHard · 22/12/2020 00:13

I enjoyed the Ursula the Sea Witch and Macron-Merkel NY serenade suggestions but obviously they’re totally unrealistic. So I’m going to add my vote to zombies or Gove as Christian Grey - or maybe an alien landing.

WarmSausageTea · 22/12/2020 00:14

Zombie apocalypse and/or the Queen on a ventilator.

TimeFlysWhenYoureHavingRum · 22/12/2020 00:15

Full national lockdown, no deal brexit. Boris Johnson resigns and drops the mic.

Mypathtriedtokillme · 22/12/2020 00:18

Super Volcano blowing it’s top or Trump losing his shit and causing a nuclear winter?

CoffeeCreamandSugar · 22/12/2020 00:25

Locusts?

SleepingStandingUp · 22/12/2020 00:27

@Santaisironingwrappingpaper

My dd turns 14 .. Poor dc we can't even do much celebrating!!
Mine too, much older tho. I hope the apocalypse doesn't come on our birthday, I already had to compete with 1999 and "the world will end!!!!!)

Locust plagues have actually already been a real thing this year and there are predictions that they along with covid will cause large famines next year

Yup this year is shit alround

Rogue asteroid hitting the Whitehouse clearing up that pesky debate of trump leaving or not. Hopefully the whole family has gathered for Xmas.
