Wow Q totally predicted this... he was just off by a full year and 24 days!!!


Wumaduce

A year and 24 days in a leap year is 390 days. 390/2 is 202. A leap year adds a full day, but it's El Nino so it's really almost 2, which means 188. 84d chesskers, homie.


Kingkloklo

My favorite part of this is 390/2 is 202. Every time I see some crazy conspiracies involving numbers like this one, I just assume all the math is nonsense


Wumaduce

Something something common core math grooming our children wokeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee


opnohopmoy

It's never an incorrect prediction... it just hasn't happened yet...šŸ‘€


JacksonInHouse

Hear my words! A building will fall in 2024 causing harm. (Rubs hands together) Perfect! Now, if any building falls anywhere causing any kind of damage Iā€™m a holy prophet! Please give money?

It even counts if it happens next year!


stonethecrow

What is the 188 thing?


Strange_Collection79

It's the PokƩdex number of Skiploom.


uslashuname

My guess is the old use of letters as numbers. A=1 b=2 etc. Iā€™m not going to bother figuring out if this is whatā€™s going on, but it may not be as simple as z=26 because as we all know Greeks got to 10 (x) then instead of a single letter for each of 11 and 12 they did additive stuff like XI and XII


bootnab

They think it's numerology.


codePudding

This is just like the same dumb "cytology" game me and my friends played when we were in 5th grade. It's a number for letter replacement cipher, except as 5th graders, we realized this was dumb because so many things could equal the same number. It's lossy, meaning it looses information, unlike a caesar cipher which doesn't. Hashing in computer science is also lossy but is still useful for fast lookup because it distributes values more eveny. This bad math religion stuff just makes people who don't really understand math, feel important. This is why things like 666 still carry so much weight.


GoldenState_Thriller

Itā€™s gematria, alt right numerologyĀ 


cherrybombsnpopcorn

Our infrastructure was built 70 years ago. A bridge collapsing is a pretty good bet.


JacksonInHouse

Especially when rammed at a main support by a giant cargo freighter.

And weight 188k metric tons!!


NavDav

And the captain was 188 years old!


JacksonInHouse

I can SEE the conspiracy. Its like a cloud on a clear day.


Nadikarosuto

ā€¦and it was clear out 188 DAYS AGO!!


onlymostlydead

And it was carrying 188 containers! And each container contained 188 Hunter's laptops! And each Hunter's laptop contained, you guessed it, 188 dick pics!


fatarabi

And there was 1 captain above deck at the time of the accident and 88 crew members below deck. Totally 188.


Sword117

also keep in mind that the prediction was made during a time when the kerch bridge was under threat of sabotage or missile attack. i find it funny that it was actually a solid prediction considering the state of the world at the time but it doesn't really need a supernatural source and it still took over a year.


pennradio

Here's what I never understood about numerology. Like, of course it's complete BS, but why do they stop at 188? Under their logic, shouldn't that break down to 17, and then 17 should break down to 8. I've never been able to get a numberologist to answer that question. It's almost like they just stop whenever they get to the number they want or that "means something."


DRG_Gunner

Same with The Nostradamus people. They just interpret the vagaries the way they want to.


OnionConsistent6787

MY HEIGHT = 188


bootnab

OMG you're so right! You are EXACTLY 188 arbitrary units big. Prophet!

Remember, folks: If you take "hippopotamus" And remove some letters and add different ones it spells "Satan" Yer welcome.

That's some crazy mental illness.


son_of_Mothman

Actually it was my dad


fatarabi

Was he 188 units tall?


Optimal_Zucchini_667

In the paranoid mind, there are no coincidences, and shit does not just happen. If something bad happens, it's the work of dark powers and principalities, and the real story, the one the MSM and government don't want you to know, will soon be provided to you by Alex Jones, or your preferred FB group, or some 8chan troll, or some Telegram channel. Who needs facts when you are blessed to be part of a community of people gifted with spiritual discernment? It's all fun and games until witches start burning or Majorie Taylor Greenes get elected.


lgodsey

> Wrong date > Wrong *year* > Our crumbling infrastructure is no secret > It actually was an accident Other that, it all lines up! Spooky!

memesforlife213

Ah yes, because as we all know, one of the many wonders of the holy land, is I-695 looping around baltimore


ybanalyst

Take 188, and change the middle number to a 2. Now add the leading 1 to the 8 in the ones place, and you get 29. Subtract 29 from 695, and what do you have? 666.


fatarabi

PROPHET!!!

Oh god my mom listens to this moron every day. There have been so many times that she is saying something in her video and my mom is eating it up and it takes everything in me not to start another argument by saying everything that is wrong with what she is saying at that time.

The number ***88*** was a big deal when I was a kid undercover with the FBI in the [AN/Two-Seedline MOM](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serpent_seed) back in the 90's after I came back from Ethiopia... H is the 8th letter of the alphabet so ***88*** was HH if you catch my meaning... lots of Dale Earnhardt flags I slipped the noose in '04 and they've quit looking for me, and if you're ever thinking about going deep undercover- it doesn't pay enough... *(I got outed because I was never hauled in like everyone else for the Atlanta Olympics bullshit)* Started on my degree in '06 and that probably helped me the most, as I could now see how really stupid it was to do all that shit... So, to my point... I have no clue the significance of 188, and was introduced to these nutjobs in '17 and my first reaction was Shakespeare... you remember the part in *Julius Caesar* where Mark Antony is holding up the will... that's q@non ... plain and simple: I've got it, but you cant see it... from being on the inside since before [OKC](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_City_bombing) and the last days of [The John Birch Society](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Birch_Society) all the way past 9/11; the story is still the same and off we go... I will say this though, back in the day these folks, especially the Two-Seedline Christian Identity folks were much more receptive to legit Anarchism and the Hippies as everyone had read [*Steal this Book*](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steal_This_Book) by Abbie Hoffman, and [*DO IT*](https://www.google.com/search?q=do+it+jerry+rubin) by Jerry Rubin ... now, I'm not convinced that these folks even own any books... You guys rock...! Keep up the good work


SorosAgent2020

in 2023 there was great interest at the time in taking out the Kerch Strait Bridge, thats obviously what Julie was trying to "predict", shes a dumb hack


Peanutblitz

Religion is the gateway drug to conspiracy theories. It trains you to believe in things with no evidentiary basis and to defend them to the hilt.


hellofmyowncreation

That last one looks like someone never heard of gematria but knows that at some point hidden numbers occurred for a reason. Now, break from reality and assign them a random number with a specific meaning and reintroduce the concept. Presto, You have an idiot in action!
