Hey everyone I was just watching videos on a site that I like to frequent and came across this bizarre clip. It's taken from the Family Guy season finale which aired the first day of the recent tornadoes.. Say what you will about media and predicting odd events, but this is just downright insane.

There's a link to the vid.. so what do you guys think??

I think this is just bad taste and bad timing. Family Guy and American Dad can be pretty close to offensive at times.
I've never went for the idea that TV shows predict the future.

Yea, I guess you could see the fact that people generally know when tornado season is and if you made a joke about it during that time it would appear to be more than just a coincidence. But the question I ask is when does something become more than coincidence?

When writers for the show realize that they are on the radar of all these silly people looking for "signs."


Then, they put anything and everything into their shows and take into account things that could happen based on regular seasonal patterns or logical connections. They realize something is bound to hit the mark sometime.

Then, they watch the boost in rating and free publicity...and laugh their way to the bank.

Yeah, crazy, they predicted a tornado in tornado alley during tornado season. Watch out, next they are going to predict a dog taking a dump in a dog park.

Spooky.

I'm kinda speechless about this one.

On one hand, tornadoes happen in the midwest around this time of year every year, and more often than not at least one is going to devastate a community/city, so that works my mind towards the unfortunate coincident side of the story.

But, couple this with the Turban Cowboy/Boston Bombing evidence, and it becomes suspicious.

IDK...am I allowed to say that? lol

To be honest it's common to hear about bad tornadoes in the Midwest. Like hurricanes in or near Florida. It's more common sense.

watch the comedy roast of charlie sheen.. listen to what sheen says of seth macfarlane..

who saw seth hosting the oscars?

..what kind of morals does this guy seem to have?

..we're dealing with a guy who thinks it's funny to make fun of what brings grief to "normal" people.

family guy is also replete with racism. ditto cleveland show. ditto american dad.

i lost interest in these shows long ago.. negative influences are like "a turd in the punchbowl" (to quote alex jones) ..will you drink, or just throw it away?

Because south park is so much more... there, I just momentarily lost over 130 IQ points by watching those 2 minutes of a south park episode and now I cant form a full sentence.

He wants to watch "poor people scramble to save what little they have".

He says that and millions tune in to watch the damage for days on end.

What a coincidence.

Which pretty much shows that the "family guy" is pretty much spot on as "the average american"... what did the average american did after? well... actually the average american did tune in to "watch poor people scramble to save what little they have".

Not that is pretty... but its true.

Yeah, just bad timing. That's totally all it is. Kind of like this one that was aired before the Boston bombing happened...
