Airplane ticket to Nevada for September 20-23? Check. Duffel bag? Packed. Aluminum foil cone hat? Firmly secured. What am I packing for you may ask? Well apparently the internet has decided it would be a good idea to “attack” Area 51, over number the military guards present, and take some aliens home to play with them or something.
A Facebook event coordinated by a shitposting page (a page that is designed for specific online communities for the purpose of mockery or meme functioning) has proposed that the American every-man should band together to attack Area 51 and…free?…the aliens and expose the government’s secrets. At the time of this article, over 500k people support and plan on attending this event which could be the event of the year for those who sit at home making memes all day.
While it is supposedly a prank and hoax, the organizers are also proposing that if everyone runs as fast as and like Naruto that they can evade the military’s bullets. Good luck…I think?
Some people propose bringing the aliens home as pets or even marrying them if they look good enough (what about alien consent?). As a fan of Area 51 conspiracy theories, I’m interested in seeing how far this goes or if the government will get involved to quench the thirst of these avid alien hunters. Hopefully any attempts will be livestreamed for those who will be unable to attend.
I guess the real question is…what are you gonna name your alien?
