      MSGID: 1:261/38.0 5dcf9e44       TZUTC: -0500       CHARSET: LATIN-1                      Thanks to Dave Drum, one of my users for this one :)               Imagine if 10 years ago you were approached by a time traveler        and he was like "Look, I don't have much time to explain, all I        can tell you is that the year 2020 is going to be wild as hell!        You know Donald Trump, the star of the apprentice? Well he's        the president of the United States and at the beginning of 2020        he gets into a Twitter beef with Iran that almost starts world        war. Australia catches fire and a woman tries to save it by        selling pictures of her tits. Kobe Bryant dies in a helicopter        crash. Half the world is devastated, the other half just makes        messed up memes. A 42 year old Canadian Zamboni driver wins the        game against the Toronto Maple Leafs...his own home team! And        just when the world starts recovering from the loss of Kobe some        dude in China eats a fucking bat and starts a global pandemic        that specifically kills old people and asthmatics. The Prime        Minister of Canada directs everyone to not speak moistly on        others (more memes ensue) President Trump halts all funding to        the WHO. Everyone loses their minds. 40% of the population        thinks it's the end of the world another 40% thinks it's all        fake and 20% blames the whole thing on cell phone towers. The        one thing everyone seems to agree on is that the only way to        survive is by hoarding toilet paper. Grocery stores are        ransacked and Charmin Ultra Soft essentially replaces all        official currencies. Eventually as hysteria grows, governments        are forced to shut the entire planet down and lock everyone in        their houses and..... the only person that can keep the people        from completely losing their minds and starting a huge riot is a        homosexual gun toting Oklahoma man with two husbands, a meth        addiction, and 223 pet tigers... and that was all before        spring."                             FIDOGAZETTE Vol 14 No 17 Page 3 April 29th, 2020                      -----------------------------------------------------------------              --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-4        * Origin: Prism bbs (1:261/38)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 601 226/30 227/114 702 229/101 200 426       SEEN-BY: 229/664 1014 240/5832 249/206 307 317 400 292/854 317/3 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 633/280       PATH: 261/38 3634/12 154/10 280/464 229/101 426           |
