With all this talk of UFOs, I have to wonder about the Simpsons prediction accuracy.

This sums up my view on the matter (note the title isn't the point):Those damn alien bastards are real (Gianni Matragrano as Duke Nukem).

"Are they gonna help fix the housing marking?"

No, Duke, as always they're just gonna steal our women and shoot up your ride. ๐Ÿ˜ž

That episode has never been more true than today. It is eclipsed only by the Donald Trump as president episode.

I was just wondering, is this just accepted now? Like yeah, obviously, there are aliens. And no, they don't want to talk to us.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No. Not one person has brought forth any evidence that there are aliens. It's all been "I talked to a guy that worked with someone".

The Inspector General apparently had enough evidence to tell Congress "y'all need to do something about this", but I'm still going with "it's nothing" until we see good evidence that isn't just video clips or "I know a guy who knows a guy".
