This week a giant sinkhole appeared out of nowhere in Mid-Town Manhattan. The city is at a lost to why the sinkhole appeared, although here are some theories:

- Economy so bad, even the streets are depressed.

- Street workers in bright neon green caution vests were running out of stuff to stand and point at.

- Like many other New Yorkers this summer, Manhattan decided it too would hit the streets with an exposed crack.

- Hole actually just publicity stunt for new show ‘The Real Housewives of the Underground Mole People’.

- I guess this city isn’t as ‘constant-heavy-traffic-garbage-and-weird-liquids-flowing-through-the-street’ proof as we thought.

- Hole in city part of mayor’s plan to make New York more ‘aerodynamic’.

- Just a city scar from another epic battle between Godzilla and Snookie.

- This is what happens when you buy one of those cheap knock-off roads in China-Town.

- Hole created to make visitors from New Jersey feel more at home.

- Looks like Jimmy Hoffa finally escaped!
