Gazebo already used the standard REM reference with his title, so I decided to be a bit more prosaic.
As he points out, some people are taking the war in the Middle East to be a sign of impending doom. (Some people have also apparently indicated that this may be the beginning of World War III, but I like to think of it more as Super World War II Turbo. Because, really, how much different will this be than the prequel?)
To lend credence to the impending apocalypse, I'd like to point out a few other signs that point in the same direction:
1. Sloan Annex (the building in which I have my office) is sinking into the Pacific Ocean. (There was some really funky bright blue-green goop leaking from the ceiling. Maybe it's not always so good to be in the condensed matter building...)
2. The Pirates have been winning games lately.
3. George Bush is stirring in his slumber. (This increases the toughness of all Rednecks by +1.)
I'd like to encourage other people to contribute their favorite apocaplytic signs. What else has happened recently that might signal the end of the world?

There was a similar thread at Majikthise recently. (The third item only makes sense if you've been reading certain political blogs.)
I can only hope that this entry actually gets enough comments to be truly designated a "thread."
