So we are currently away on holiday, just spoken to friends back home who asked if we had heard about this viral 'news' (I put that lightly)

Apparently on 24th September, there is going to be a large, catastrophic world event in which everybody will remember exactly where we are and what we were doing at that exact moment.

Does anybody else know anything about this?! Maybe I'm just blissfully unaware!

It’s my wedding anniversary. No large party planned so far, but you’re all welcome at the Biscuit Factory so we can face the end together 😁

The Biscuit Factory sounds amazing! I'm in.

This date has been going around Tik Tok for about a week now. Apparently Princess Diana was going to be making a comeback 🙄 I've hid all the Russia/Nuclear videos and hash tags because it terrifies me but I imagine they will now be saying we are going to he nuked on that day.

Why have Jesus returning when we can have Princess Di Grin

I remember when i was in my teens in 2012 and everyone was saying the world was going to end in December and I was sleeping at my friends house I was on edge all day and night thinking I was going to die without seeing my mum or dad again.

This time I just hope my own children are bloody quiet while it does happen. If my last moments are filled with:

“can I have a snack?”
“is it snack time?”
“leave me alone”
“I don’t want to”
“but I NEED the iPad”
“give me my toy back”
“that’s not yours”
“I’m hungry”
“mummy, mummy, mummy, MUMMY!”

then I bloody welcome the end.

I’m hosting a party for 22 primary age kids that day. Can it be after that? 😂

someone on my FB announced that they were coming off all social media as they were scared to death about 24 September. I had no idea what they were talking about, then somebody told them it was just crap on TT .

I have lived through several "end of the world " dates so far, so am hoping this one won't be any different Grin.

It was possibly bad timing with the guy making an error in his speech around the time of a mad dictator threatening nuclear war.....

They're removing the word "gullible" from the dictionary.

You heard it here first.

I've got a colonoscopy on the 24th and judging by the state of my arse at the moment, it'll be the end of the world for the consultant doing it

Me too, but on the 28th. No Moviprep for me, yippee!!

Good luck for the 24th x

@Yesthatismychildsigh
Can’t be true. Because the world ended in 2011. I do wish people would stop all this crap.

Incorrect. It actually ended in 1980. I know, because I was there. Although I didn’t notice it happening, but I’m sure it did because I WAS TOLD IT DEFINITELY WOULD. Sorry for shouting, but there have been so many rumours since and clearly it would be silly to think the World can end twice.

In that scenario I'd welcome the apocalypse the day before.

Typical, I'm at work. Although in this case conveniently my work building is also part bunker so maybe I'll be fine

Apparently it's all over social media! I must live an extremely boring life as I don't have anything about it on any of my news feeds! ConfusedGrin

Apparently it's all over social media!

Must be true then. 🙄

I’ve just searched on Twitter; nothing about 24 September, so I am concluding you are talking absolute bollocks.

I've had workmen in, so I was planning to spend 24 September, dusting, vacuuming, washing down walls, scrubbing floors and so on. So - do I meet doomsday with a clean house or do I take the slovenly route? 🤔

I have MIL coming to stay for the first time since Covid. That is catastrophic enough for me.

Oh take the slovenly route like me! Get some wine in and tell your worst enemy what you think of them.
