Gas Odor In Manhattan, Dead Birds Shut Down Austin

Smelled this on may way to work today.

And,
Dozens of dead birds force parts of downtown Austin to be shutdown.

I'm not given to exaggeration, but I'm pretty sure that this is the end of the world.

I'm in Queens and I'm heading to Manhattan in a few minutes... I hope nothing goes wrong

bloomberg is holding a press conference about thegas odor right now. shocker: they have no clue what it is.

shocking! They have no clue

Ten bucks says the smell came from Jersey.

ha! i'll throw in $10 as well.

I've got a lot of shit to do, more than expected here in queens so i'm not even sure if i'm even headed to Manhattan, but if I do I leave with this note: jeez can I at least light one up and smoke a cigerette?

Well everyone wish me luck. I live a few miles from the dead birds.

Good luck killing more birds, you sick fuck.

Don't worry. It's probably not space rabies.

I guess this wouldn't be the appropriate time for a fart joke.

Don't worry, I saw this on a movie about a volcano. Soon an underground volcano is going to erupt and kill everything in Austin.

BTW, the first and second links in the original post take you to the same story.

Second link fixed.

I don't think there's any other rational explanation.

Well, goodbye everybody. It's been nice knowing some of you.

Be careful, there in Manhattan; natural gas and methane (if it's that) is not something to fuck around with - though, I'm not certain what you would do - save leaving .


And, some jerk-ass probably poisoned the birds - as is usually the case with big die-offs in urban areas, especially considering the types of birds (English sparrows, pigeons, grackles). Those birds are usually the target of people that have harbor a special gripe toward them, as they are considered pest birds.

put me down for $20. it's got to be jersey.

time to buy gasmasks, everyone.

Hmmm...Austin, Manhatten.....could it be that Pat Robertson was right?

I swear I didn't kill all those birds. Maybe 4-5 tops.

Kewl - a lot have folks have been waiting a very long time for it. I am glad that they will finally get their wish.

Although I do hope that they are not too disappointed when the rapture turns out to be bullshit.

I blame Bill Clinton. He didn't try hard enough to prevent the bird deaths or the stinky smell in NYC when he had the chance. Also, does anyone have a 20 on Barrak Hussein Obama?

I'm going to laugh when someone reports that the State Chili Competition was held just out of the NYC Limits.

Bird rapture in the ATX

world ends at 10:00, film at 11:00!!

Damn 8-9 minutes till the end of the world and I havent "Liberated" a DAMN thing.....

Along the lines of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, could we all start an end-of-the-world cult based on the impending "Rupture"?
