The year is not yet over, but 2016 has already been quite the rollercoaster ride.
Donald Trump’s presidential election win, British voters’ decision to exit the European Union, the Chicago Cubs’ World Series victory and the death of stars including David Bowie and Prince have all made it a year to remember (or one we’d rather forget).
With that in mind, Twitter users have been busy imagining some of next year’s news headlines via the globally trending #HeadlinesFor2017 hashtag.
But be warned, some of them are terrifying. Here are some of the best posts we’ve seen so far:
