Not gonna lie, I was like "well at least they're having fun" until getting to where they were snorting their coke lol. That said, when I chuckled at orphan crushing machine memes, I didn't expect them to gradually materialize in the waking world.

Yeah and none of us actually expected Idiocracy to become reality either, yet here we are.
