Title: ** IMPORTANT REMINDER [2022 pred topic] **
Post by: DYM on December 12, 2021, 03:12:43 pm
There are only 3 weeks until new year, i.e., when the "Predictions for 2022" thread is created. This is just a HEALTHY reminder for you to think about and write your predictions so that they're ready to post when the thread is made.

Until then, happy 2021! :smokin:

Great idea, I have a couple ideas already stirring around.  I might make a "pink comet" bright, optimistic, post; and a "punished Goose" dark post.

I thought it was funny last year how like, a lot of people were hoping for positivity in 2021, of course.  But then by early January 2021, I was browsing Wikipedia, and the popular articles were "2021 Insurrection of United States Capitol" and "Second Impeachment of Donald Trump".  I just thought like, imagine you time traveled only back a few weeks, to someone in December 2020, who was very optimistic for a turnaround in 2021; and showed them just the titles of those Wikipedia articles, to show them the kind of "foot" the year got off to...  :rollin: How quickly their optimism would be shattered.  :nesquik:

So the idea is like, to post fake titles of possible, foreboding Wikipedia articles for 2022.  For example, "Pacific Northwest Blackout of May 2022", "Arctic Ocean Weather Anomaly", "Hurricane Alex", "Cryptocurrency Crash of 2022", "Second Jeopardy! Hosting Crisis," "Twenty Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution", etc.  It gets even more surreal (in dark humor terms) if you could make up fake articles for way beyond into the future.  Like, "First Freshwater Wars", "Extreme Continental Shift of 2047", "Melting of Greenland Ice Sheet", "First Democide of Unvaccinated Americans", etc.

Anyways, you get the idea, funny jokes, dark humor, etc, etc, nothing to be taken seriously, Minecraft, etc, etc, thank you for the friendly reminder to start brainstorming funny and epic predictions for 2022.
