Honestly, I thought the original what if everyone went blind thread sounds kinda cliche to me. I guess alot of people just wanted to have some fun with it.

They're replacing the advice forums in terms of weird, overdone threads.

I actually started the trend by copying a thread I saw, as a joke. If it wasn't for me, the trend wouldn't have started.

I posted mine to parody and point the fun at the what if posters. Unfortunately, my moments of lucidity are few and far between today, and no one can translate my nonsense.
