WORLD.- It's no secret that today, September 23rd, has been settled as one of the many days where supposedly the world is going to end. If we go a back on previous predictions, December 21st, 2012 was allegedly the day when the planet Nibiru would collide with Earth, and in 2000 Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn were supposed to align for the first time in 6,000 causing the world's destruction.

Over the last few days, social media has been surrounded by endless memes regarding the "The End Of The World", which supposedly is today, due to some rumors about a asteroid that will crash down on Earth, however, NASA issued a statement where they explain that said risk is very unlikely.

"There is no scientific basis that an asteroid or any other heavenly object will collide with Earth on that date," say Paul Chodas, administrator of NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab. Nevertheless, putting aside this and many other statements that assure the world won't end today, internet users are still sharing funny memes regarding all the things they didn't do today because the world was "supposedly" going to end.
