2020 is certainly proving to be an awful year. One part of the country is being hit by cyclone Amphan, while another is hearing strange crash-like sounds.
For the uninitiated, at around 1.20 pm today, several residents across the city of Bengaluru heard a mysterious ‘loud boom’ which left everyone puzzled because the source is still unknown.
That sound you heard? Don't worry, it was just #2020 burping after eating up almost half of the year. #earthquake #bangaloreboom #alien #bangalore #BOOM pic.twitter.com/UgYkO4H4Uf

According to The Indian Express, Police Commissioner Bhaskar Rao has said,
“For the past one hour people are hearing the sound, I have asked the Air Force about the fighter jet movement.”
India Today quoted the Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre adding,
“The activity reported in Bengaluru is not due to an earthquake. The Seismometers did not capture any ground vibration as generally happens during a mild tremor. The activity is purely a loud unknown noise.”
Needless to say, the unexplained phenomenon has triggered a meme fest online claiming the end is near.

First Delhiites experienced hailstorms, dust storms, and three earthquakes within a span of two months and now Bengaluru is probably (not really) being attacked by aliens. Can 2020 just get over already?
