The Simpsons

Cartoons are for kids, right?

We might need to rethink that, because there is something very creepy going on!

The Simpsons, the hilarious yellow, and oft far from politically correct, family, has been running for more than 27 years.

Creator Matt Groening and his team have been so on top of the country’s cultural pulse, they’ve even managed to predict several major historical events with uncanny accuracy!

Whether it intended to or not is beside the point – right there to its left.

And so we might ask, did The Simpsons predict an event for September 23rd 2017?

Watch this video and find out!

VIA THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE:

BIN| The Simpsons are prepared for the apocalypse. Are you? 

They are forecasting an asteroid strike in two weeks on one of the “magic” September dates.

The following 3 minutes are a bone-chlling prediction of the very issues that has captured the attention of the Independent Media.

This is from Season 24, Episode 9 (24/9). Watch the full Episode (https://www.animmex.com/video/2976/th…) Homer Goes to Prep School

Donald Trump’s bid for the White House and ascendancy in the polls has surprised many – but The Simpsons called it 15 years ago.

The cartoon foretold a Trump presidency in a surreal episode where Bart is given a window into the future – and found a country brought to its knees by financial mismanagement and a crime wave ushered in by The Donald.

In Bart to the Future, first aired in March 2000, a fortune teller gave Bart a glimpse of 2030 – just weeks after Trump vacated the White House.

The episode’s alternate universe reveals that Trump, who will be 84 in 2030, left the country in an impossible amount of debt, and reliant on foreign aid from Europe and China.

This sorry state of affairs is the exact opposite of Trump’s current campaign promise to ‘Make America Great Again’, and stop ‘losing’ to other nations.

The recently-unearthed episode is the latest in a series of eerie Simpsons predictions, in which the show has foreseen the Arab Spring, the Ebola crisis and the discovery of the Higgs-Boson particle.

VIA| The Simpsons has been running for more than 25 years, and during this time it has managed to accurately predict future events several times. Whether it intended to or not is beside the point – right there to its left. The hilarious yellow, and oft far from politically correct, family has managed to make a commentary on society that was so accurate it predicted the future. And not once, not twice – not even thrice. Here are just 10 examples of The Simpsons’ predictions.

10. Ebola Outbreak Predicted

In the 1997, Marge holds up a book titled “Curious George and the Ebola Virus.” Then Bart points to a picture he colored in which he is dead. So yeah, The Simpsons predicted the latest Ebola outbreak – or else based the episode on previous Ebola outbreaks that killed hundreds… whichever.

9. 9/11 Predicted

In the episode “New York City Against Homer,” it seems as though the cartoon’s creators already knew there would be some significance to the whole 9/11 – and it was set in an episode where “against NY” was the pretty much the title… Something to think about.

8. Tiger Mauling Of Siegfried And Roy Predicted

Yes, dealing with tigers is a dangerous thing, and Siegfried and Roy do it constantly. But that doesn’t mean they would inevitable be mauled by a tiger! In 1993 The Simpsons aired an episode in which their version of Siegfried and Roy (Gunther and Ernst) are mauled during a performance. In 2003 it happened to the real pair, well to Roy. Coincidence? Inevitable? Or perhaps Clairvoyant?

7. Wrecking Ball Predicted

Okay… So this might not be a “disaster” per se, it really depends how extreme you are when it comes to pop stars run amuck. Also, one can never know if Homer didn’t predict but rather inspired that music video, back in 1994 when The Simpsons Movie came out. Either way, Homer did it first.

6. Mutant Tomatoes Predicted

Back in 1999 The Simpsons suffered from mutant tomatoes due to the nuclear plant, in 2003 the Japanese found themselves having the exact same problem – mind boggling! Isn’t it? Who knew nature would have adverse reactions to nuclear power plants? But the fact that in both cases it was about tomatoes… that’s the thing to focus on!

5. Technological Breakthroughs Predicted

No, this is not a case of life imitating art, or scientists getting cool ideas from extremely popularshows. This is pure premonition. Smart watches, video chats, and of course Apple’s disastrous autocorrect, which has since generated countless fails posted all over the web – and it all started with “Eat up, Martha” back in 1994. Those Apple people, they’ve had so much time to fix it, and still!

4. Horse Meat Scandal Predicted

Before the UK’s Burger King horse meat scandal in early 2013, the Simpsons’ elementary school had already covered it in 1994.

3. Syrian War Predicted

According to an anchor on an Egyptian channel The Simpsons had predicted the Syrian’s resistance flag, which didn’t exist in 2001.

We won’t mention that the history of the Syrian flag… Let us just say, for the sake of predictions, that America has long conspired to bring war to Syria and break its own word on participating in wars abroad, and thus removing any credibility from its administration.

2. Farmville Phenomenon Predicted

Before Facebook even started and Farmville became a phenomenon among children and draining their minds to zombie level, in 1998 the children from Springfield’s Elementary school were already hooked on a Yard Work simulator. The zombie apocalypse has been predicted!

1. Voting Booth Disaster Predicted

In 2008 Homer tried to vote for Obama, but the voting was rigged, much like the real-life event in 2012. This is truly a harsh blow to democracy, which could have easily been avoided if people started paying closer attention to The Simpsons.
