Ok...maybe not but what do you lot make of all the "weird stuff happening"

On new years eve thousands of black birds randomly fell from the sky in Arkansas, Then just 3 days later 100,000 of fish were found dead in a stretch of river (all of the same species) other fish species were unaffected.

Now the same is happening in Louisiana

This along with the "biblical floods" in Australia and Extreme weather conditions around the world.

Just a bit strange eh?

I also saw 100000 fish had died not far from where the birds died. Maybe the mayans and John Cusack are right?

i'd trust john cusack, he knows everything

It's not particularly funny, but as someone's going to say "Yes, and Swindon won a game after going behind." then it may as well be me.

just been reminded of the earthquake up north and also a tornado in falmouth  :eek:

Cusack is a hero however during endless boredom during the night I happened to stumble across this link

Just to say it won't end if it does well i'll eat my hat at some point after the world ends

The magnetic poles are due to shift at some point soon....

Yeah, I am basing this on nothing but I'd imagine the weather will go a bit mental, as will animals for a bit and then it'll calm down.

I don't think we're gonna get wiped off the the map or anything..

I read a fair bit about that years ago. If I remember we are a couple of thousand overdue for that to happen?

we can only hope :-)

This is something we were discussing in the pub the other night - we weren't sure if the magnetic poles were affected by shifts in tectonic plates but if they were then even a small shift it would have a major effect on climate - not sure about the birds and fish though!

This is exactly how FlashFoward started.

Think about it. Dead birds. Thousands of people have no recollection of the night of 31/12.....Its happening.

Meh. The end of the world is not going to happen for several billion years. The human race will, of course, have managed to kill itself off long before that, but the planet has a while left yet and can survive just find without us raping it.

Someone's been watching too many disaster movies.

Nothing to see here...

See they've found 2 million of another single species of fish dead in Chesapeake Bay, getting freaky...

Swindon coming from behind and winning 4-2 away....things are not right..

That was my first thought too...

How did they count them all ?

It's the apocolypse. Repent, Repent

this is getting freaky

Really Chubbs?

nah..its quite normal all this really isnt it

Warn me when people start dropping...

It was more to the fact that the post on the previous page had already talked about that story, with the same description 'getting freaky' :)

Apparently the fish froze to death.....save ol Cap'n Birds Eye some work.

my bad :-)

its getting closer to home now

anyone see Flashforward!!!

just another idea

new zealand now
http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/4512779/Hundreds-of-snapper-wash-up-on-beaches

Those articles are suggesting that the fish all died because of unusually low sea temperatures.

The birds are a bit wierd though.

Chubbs is the new John Cusak, at least wait until the right year!

I think this is the usual press thing of tagging onto stuff that probably happens all the time, and making out it's abnormal. Bit like the daily mail do. In fact I saw the mail this week somewhere and it was saying don't eat nuts you'll get fat, do you ever see lardy squirrels? No, any way  I digress, next story will be 2000 Lemmings dieing, or 50 whales wash up on a beach, in short nature is doing what nature does.
