5 Times The Simpsons Accurately Predicted The Future

by

The Simpsons’ American cartoon show has been running for over 27 years. This show that we grew up with, has been accurately predicting future events. Although most of us thought that it was mere fiction, experts have come to realize that the producers of the show ”knew” what the future will hold.

Trump Will Be President

Probably the most unexpected of all. On a an episode aired about 19 years ago, the show presented a new president of the United States. Donald Trump, solely a business man at the time, was elected president of the country. While many people regarded it as a joke (given the fact that the show is a cartoon) nobody really had imagined it will come to life in the not-too-far future.

Ebola Outbreak

On their episode 3 of season 9, Marge suggests a read to a sick bart. The book was fictionally named ”Curious George and the Ebola Virus.” However, in the 90s, Ebola wasn’t exactly a widespread disease. It didn’t become a news headline until 2014, which means 17 years after it appeared on the show. Coincidence?

US wins Curling Olympics Against Sweden

The Simpsons also predicted sports events’ results. During the 2018 winter olympics clash between Sweden and the US, Sweden was the favorite tow in. However, and as the show depicted in an episode in 2010, the US won the gold medal, beating Sweden in men’s curling olympics.

GOT’s Finale Plot Twist

One of the best TV shows is undoubtedly Game of Thrones. Known for their unexpected endings, it was extremely hard for anyone to predict how the show will end. Yet, if we go few years back, exactly to the first episode of season 9 of The Simpsons, we can see it. The episode even predicted the Three-Eyed Raven and the Night King. Impressive!

NSA Spying

Although back in the 90s this wasn’t a generally known fact, the producers of the comic show used homer to imply NSA spying on the general public. At the time, nobody took it seriously, however, Edward Snowden confirmed that it’s an exiting fact. In 2013, documents were released proving the NSA is actually spying ”illegally” on American citizens.

Florida Couple ”Win A Baby” In A Radio Contest

by

The United States of America is known as ” the land of the free.” People more or less, have the freedom to do what they want, even if it’s allowing you to ”win a baby” on a radio show contest.

This couple won the ”Win a baby” contest of a Radio Station in Florida, and became new parents of a baby boy thanks to the show.

The Contest Was Hosted By Florida’s B103.9 In November 2017

”Win a baby” contest is organized by B103.9 radio station in Florida. In November 2017, they offered one woman the chance of wining a free round of in-vitro fertilization (IVF), with all medications’ expenses included.

So the show asked women to send a video explaining why they want to be mothers. They have posted the winning couple’s submission, as well as photos of the new born on their website.

The Show Helped The Couple Start Their Own Family

Krista and Anthony Rivera of Cape Coral, won the contest in 2017. They publicly thanked the contest for giving them the opportunity to become parents for the first time. The Riveras have been fighting infertility, a common issue for a lot of couples.

In fact, according to the American Medical Association, infertility is now considered a disease. Moreover, an IVF nowadays costs roughly $20,000 a cycle. For many couples, they’ll have to take loans in order to afford it.

“Win a Baby” Was Held Again In 2019

Garrett Campbell Rivera, the couple’s first baby was born in August 2019, just a couple of years after the fertilization process began. Both new parents made sure to thank the contest and the radio station for making their dream come true.

Thanks to the successful experience of Krista and Anthony Rivera, the show hit again with a contest earlier this year. The winners this time are called Vy and Chris Nguyen, who are going through infertility as well, and are also hoping to be able to start their family soon.

The Purge is Happening Now in Barcelona

by

It seems like the known movie”The Purge” is actually happening in the streets of Barcelona, and no, it’s not for halloween. The streets of the Spanish city seeking independence, have known a chaotic situation since Tuesday night.

Violent actions took place after the sentencing of ex- Catalan leaders, who were part of the pro-independence government that organized the referendum in 2017. The citizens took their anger to the streets of the city, and caused major flight delays, and blocked the main roads of the region.

The After-math of The 2017 Referundum

In 2017, Carles Puigdemont and his government organized a pro-independence referendum, in order to exist Spain. However, the Spanish government intervened, as it was ”unconstitutional” to organize such movement.

Catalans who went to vote were faced with clashes with the police, which some got quite violent. The referendum’s results were in favor of the separation, but were annuled by the Spanish government.

Spanish Supreme-court Jails the ex-leaders of the Movement

On Tuesday morning, Spanish supreme-court announced the jailing of 9 of the movement leaders. While the sentences varied between 7 years and 13 years, the pro-independence citizens refused to accept them.

Since the announcement, people took the streets to express their anger. Madrid on the other hand, sent extra riot police to Barcelona in order to prevent chaos.

Protestors Blocked the Entrance to The City

In addition to thousands of protestors in the city center, many took the initiative of blocking the roads and main entrances to Barcelona. At least 100 flights were canceled on Tuesday, as well as a huge interruption of the city’s railway and highways.

The airport was also filled with people waving their Catalunya flags, and clashing with the police. Visitors were told to remain inside the airport for few hours, until the situation calms down a bit.

Barcelona’s Streets Are on Fire

According to the protestors and current leading government of Catalunya, the supreme-court’s decision will just strengthen the movement. Although the Spanish prime minister tried to promote dialogue between the region and the central government, it seems that the violence will continue until reaching an agreement.

The streets of Barcelona have been in flames since last night, and footage of the actions released on social media frightened the world. Some have actually compared what’s happening to the movie ”The Purge”, due to the similarity of events.
