File this under: **** Bored People Do. Because you really have to be bored out
of your damn mind to want to take a pilgrimage to Area 51, better known as the
place the government allegedly hides all their secret information about aliens.
More than likely this is one big hoax. But then again, this is America 2019 and
people love to post strange **** for clicks and likes. So far, according to CNN,
there are over three hundred thousand people who have decided they want to see
exactly what’s going on down in Nevada by storming Area 51. I’m sure the fact
that it’s a classified government site isn’t going to stop them from their
mission either. Because who needs bulletproof vests when you can withstand a
hail of gunfire by adopting a raid style based off of a beloved anime series.
Yes, you read that right.
The event, titled “Storm Area 51, They Can’t Stop All of Us,” is inviting users
from around the world to join a “Naruto run” — a Japanese manga-inspired running
style featuring arms outstretched backwards and heads forward — into the area.
“We can move faster than their bullets,” the event page, which is clearly
written with tongue in cheek, promises those who RSVP for September 20.
See, this is how really bad ideas begin. Because even if this is just a huge
joke I can guarantee you there’s at least one person thinking to themselves,
“Hmmmm….maybe we CAN storm the gates by running like Naruto.” That one person
will be the fool who starts a different group called “No Really, Let’s Storm
Area 51.” And of course, over on Twitter, folks are already preparing for the
aftermath of idiots showing up to Nevada for a once in a lifetime chance to get
shot by the government.
