    This is a psychological evaluation test. Please choose the answer you deem most likely to explain the event.

    Question 1

    A group of people scheduled to go to the same event all decide not to go, why?

    A. The event is cancelled

    B. The group rescheduled

    C. They all, individually, have super powers

      There might also just be one ot two with that super power among them, but if the rest knows how accurate their power is (or at least believes as much), them sending a message around “I woke up from a vivid dream about being on a crashing plane today, I’m staying tf home” might be enough to make everyone else cancel.

      D. They all, individually, have superpowers and predicted a disaster would happen. However, their future vision is predicated on the fact that they’ll all be on the plane. Them all choosing not to go will have significantly altered the outcome of a potential future event.

      In short; you’re probably safe.

        Technically, their inability to predict a crash doesn’t prevent a crash – you might die all the same (it’s particularly grim that, according to the meme, even their supposed clairvoyance wouldn’t prevent a crash because they presumably would just quietly avoid going).

        Idk probably A.

        If rescheduling, it would have to be extremely last minute if the airline did not have time to rebook seats. That would be disruptive to everyone and basically just means second event at the same cost as the first which sort of unravels the benefit of rescheduling.

        Also. If they are all psychic, why would they book flights then cancel them? 🤔
