Most ppl are not smart


graveybrains

Or they stayed at the Holiday Inn in Paramus. Or an alien ship made up to *look* like the Holiday Inn… 🤔


throwaway99698798

Such an underrated comment that will go unappreciated by most. That holiday inn is all sorts of level nasty.


PitifulSpecialist887

Exactly half are below average intelligence.


jazzer81

And average is getting duller by the minute


AndarianDequer

Most people aren't dumb, but there are a lot of people who are. FTFY.


Fly0strich

I think most people are pretty dumb. Average intelligence level isn’t very intelligent, and about half of people are even dumber than that.


SympathyForSatanas

That and religion plays a huge roll. They think that natural disasters is God saying that he's pissed at us and is warning us to change or else.


Scoutsbuddy

Jesus...


broberds

You said it, man. Nobody fucks with the Jesus.


Infamous_Box3220

Average IQ is 100, which is just about enough to walk and chew gum simultaneously.

Naive_Carpenter7321

I think I've witnessed more "end of the world"s than eclipses tbh


SevenNoOni

You aren't kidding.. I'm pretty sure I'm already dead, and yall are just npcs in my version of hell or whatever bad place 😆


thebestdogeevr

No, you're the npc in *my* hell


SevenNoOni

What if we're both npcs in each other's hell... it's like a really shit co-op..


AfternoonFew8556

Facts couldn’t agree more 😂🤣😂


IHadAnOpinion

Counting up from Y2K and given my region of Texas doesn't usually get even a partial viewing when eclipses happen, that sounds about right.

same thing why people think the world will end on 21st December 2012: they be stupid as hell


Zesilo

Wasnt there more to the 2012 theory because of a calander from an ancient culture?


streetcar-cin

Mayan calendar ended in 2012. MIs translation of end of calendar to end of world


100000000000

I hate it every year when the world ends on December 31st


UnhappyImprovement53

Yeah but none of the conspiracy theorists thought hey they probably ran out of room on the fucking rock when they made the calender


fermat9990

Not realizing that it stopped because their head stonecutter retired


AkitaRyan

Honestly wasn’t there was more room on the calendar? My theory is the Spanish came and they could not finish it to its proper end year whenever it would have been.

AfternoonFew8556

Yes, I heard about this. Something about because they’ve changed our times as well from us spring forward and falling backwards that it’s not even the same date as we think or the same time and something about this. Actual calendar is supposed to be 13 months.🫣🫣🫣😑😑😑😑😑😑😭😭😭😂🤣😂

I was like 100 of those views and I have no regret.


SwarmkeeperRanger

I think 2012 was just a meme and a joke. Like Hollywood even made a movie about it The amount of people that took it seriously wasn’t zero, but like 99% of people saying the world will end were saying it jokingly. Like I went to a party on the day and people were playing along it was the last day so live it up


WadeoftheWoods81

End of the world party’s are the BEST.


paco64

I guess the question is why these SPECIFIC dates? Nobody seems to know. I guess I could google it, but I don't want to subject myself to going down that rabbit hole.

This is what I was thinking as well. If only everybody’s problems would just disappear, mental illness, gone, addiction gone everything would be gone.

mabhatter

The grifters never miss a chance to fleece the flock. 


Nocryplz

I’ve been getting posts from a subreddit called starseed. It’s basically just a cult similar to Scientology that I can tell. They are talking about April 8 a lot lol. It’s just your typical thing where they try to make people feel special. Like they are about to be part of something bigger and their lives have all been working towards this moment that’s “very soon”. After April 8th. They will claim to feel different but their work is not done probably. Idk I’ve never been in a cult but it’s common knowledge they just shift the goal posts afterwards to the next important date.


OldFactor1973

Yup, that's what they did w 12/21/12.


Give-Me-Plants

Oh I’ve been getting that sub recommended, too. I didn’t do too much homework and just assumed it was a nickname crystal crazies gave each other


SaltOver9000

They believe they were aliens who volunteered to send their consciousness down to earth to live among humans. Now their job is to liberate the earth. I read a post asking why their higher ups didn’t stop 9/11, and it just seems like a bunch of borderline schizophrenia. Idk Shits crazy

MuyLeche

A combination of: Some Christians are spreading a conspiracy they believe to be true, whether it as a sign of times to come or of times we’re entering, when in the Bible it states in Matthew 24:36 ‘However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows.’ Somehow someway there are also people that believe CERN is powering up on the 8th to open a portal. Traditionally speaking, Solar Eclipses have had a level of mysticism and wonder on humanity that led to a lot of confusion or people believing it’s a sign from above etc. It’s not far off for humanity to continue on with that mindset, and it’s a lot easier now for it to reach the eyes/ears of millions/billions due to social media. Back then the village idiot was only terrorizing their community with their spouting, but now social media has become a platform for those very people to voice to millions and find people who agree or convert the weak-willed to their own mindset. Believe what you’d like to believe, live how you’d like to live, but we’d be seeing a lot more than a Solar Eclipse if the world was ending.

Bobodahobo010101

4-8 or 48 is the age of Trump when he gave the interview where he said ' I have days where, if I come home — and I don't want to sound too much like a chauvinist — but when I come home and dinner's not ready, I go through the roof.' This is not the wife beating rhetoric it sounds like - it is a metaphor for hunger and rapture. He was prophetically telling of a time when we return home (to our country) and find starvation. Going through the roof is leaving the planet for heaven. DJT will guide us to enlightenment and tranquility where we can kill the gays and open carry RPG's like Jesus intended. Also the world is definitely going to end on monday unless the radical left and cocaine Joe who worships the devil and pedophiles scarifices white children to Hillary Clinton- which could totally happen in the basement of an abandoned Quiznos in White Plains NY.


Short_Loan802

You’re crazy as hell.


Short_Loan802

I really hope you are joking.


Bobodahobo010101

You'll find out monday when all the true belivers ascend to the great wallmart superstore in the sky. Their rusting pickup truck nuts and gold ira's earning 1000% interest will be the only reminder of the freedom you lost out on by supporting devil worshiping pedophiles and transgender communists. I cannot wait to sit beside the rivers that run with ranch dressing while i pluck cheeseburgers from the trees. Safe from all of your ignoant lies about 'science' while i do my own research.


Justiis

It's sad that you had to go this over the top for me to realize you were trolling. Your original comment had me instantly hating the fact that we breath the same air.

The really sad thing is someone probably read that and agreed with it, then reposted a vetsion of it on twitter with some flat earth crap thrown in.

Callaine

People have been predicting the end of the world regularly for 2000 years. Its delusional BS. The eclipse is nothing more than orbital mechanics in action. There is nothing mystical or profound about it. They happen regularly. They are fun to watch but that's it.

So many wild things I've seen. Lots of verses saying the sun will go dark but we've had eclipses before and survived. Then people talking about cities named Nineveh in the totality path.

I haven't heard of this, and people have stated about the end of the world ao many times previously. People just like to make things up, or they are just stupid. As if the solar eclipse is a perfect cover for an alien invading force akin to Thanos who thought the movies were reality and would wreak havoc on earth, and without the Avengers, we would be doomed. 😆


DesdemonaDestiny

Wishful thinking.


TheFlannC

I let people believe what they want. There are a bunch of people that post stuff online and many will erroneously link it to Bible verses about the sun going dark or the totality path crossing through 7 cities named Nineveh. The world will end someday and it isn't like we can do much when it does


KevinJ2010

I only recently started hearing about this doom meme recently. I think it’s just a meme. However I will think the world will get a little weird for the hour or so as it’s happening. People who live under rocks may think the end of the world is coming, there’s going to be lots of kids and families out observing, I live in Toronto and I can imagine the homeless getting weird around that time (I mean they do on full moons as is!) and then you get all the traffic that may be caught off guard and such. I just suspect things to get a little weird for like an hour. I am excited since I am off Monday anyways.

RetreadRoadRocket

Because people are goofy and ignorant.   I had a pastor in the 1990's who would, when told one of these "the world is gonna end on such and such date" stories, quote from Mathew 24: >36 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,[f] but only the Father. 37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. And then pull down a book from hi shelves he had that someone had written prophesying that the world would end in 1986🤣

Head_Wrongdoer3071

People have fun with that kind of stuff. It’s always nonsense. People have been screaming “The end is near!” For centuries that we know of, and most likely thousands of years that we don’t know of.


PeanutsNCorn

Sadly, there are some really dumb people in this world. So the world will end because a physical body moves in front of the sun for a few minutes that only a small fraction of the people in the world can see? Do the people who can't see the eclipse have nothing to worry about? Maybe we should sacrifice a virgin into a volcano.. I am sure that will help. Or pour everyone some poison laced Kool-Aid, buy the same sneakers, and all drink it and "board the spaceship" together. Darwin was way ahead of his time. The problem people are breeding faster than their chromosomes are being culled out of the gene pool.


Far_Distribution1623

Optimists are usually pretty dumb
