Ever since day one of college, my roommate has talked about ideas such as conspiracy theories, his future (from fortune tellers), aliens, etc. One idea that he was very passionate about was the idea of the world ending in 2012 according to the Mayan Calendar. He also briefly talked about 9/11 being fake, which pissed me off, but what ever.
Anyway, one day probably mid October, I was thinking back to the days of 8th grade when we would trick our friends with a website called peteranswers.com. If you don't know what this website is, it is basically a way to make your friends think that the computer knows everything and knows every answer to every question you ask it. But really, the person typing the question is secretly giving the computer the answer (it is hard to explain so just try it yourself).
I thought it would be a great idea to prank my roommate with this peteranswers website. He believed all of these other ideas and theories, so I was sure that he would believe peteranswers and everything "Peter" had to say.
Here is the video footage of me doing peteranswers with him:
Watch it before you read any more!
Umm... so ya... that's basically what happened. I started him off with some nice easy questions introducing him to the whole peteranswers system, then he recommended some questions I ask it...
That is when things went very bad, very quickly. "When is the end of the world?" I wasn't really thinking when I typed in the answer "tomorrow," and it was probably an even worse thing to ask "So what are you going to do if the end of the world is tomorrow?"
BUT SERIOUSLY, WHAT THE HELL KIND OF RESPONSE WAS THAT!?
About an hour later, I told him that this whole thing was fake and I showed him how to trick some of his friends.
About the whole "President" thing...wow
