in 2025 a huge bottomless hole will appear in the middle of times square and people will be confused about how it got there and then eventually people will invent and spread the belief that they have to throw a live human in the hole once every day or else something bad will happen. and they will come up with this superstition completely without any kind of evidence and in reality nothing at all out of the ordinary would happen if they were to stop throwing people in the hole but nevertheless the people of new york will be very adamant that the hole needs a daily sacrifice and if you try to tell them otherwise then they'll throw you in the hole next. eventually there will be celebrities and world leaders touring the hole until eventually one day some politician or something gets assassinated by being pushed into the hole and then the government decides ok this has gone on long enough and they will cover up the hole completely. and then eventually after a couple of weeks everyone just completely forgets about the hole and goes about their business as usual like there was never any hole there at all. and all of this will happen within about the span of one or two months
