FALLOUT is a great game franchise, but some of the aspects we're supposed to assume about this post-apocalyptic society don't quite add up. It's 200 years after the Great War, and there are still robots and power armor suits. Wouldn't this high-tech stuff help give a boost for rebuilding society? It turns out that a return to civilization may not be physically or mentally possible in the aftermath of a Nuclear Fallout...Or is it?

@@iamaidansmith7542 what they said was justified tho
What I said or what they said
There's a mod for Fallout 4 called PTSD Mental Health Management. Its really cool and fits Lore-wise with a survivor. At times, mid-game in the middle of nowhere (or even a crowded city) you can hear the same sound of the nuke dropping or Shaun crying. You have to manage SS's mental health in various ways, but it really adds immersion to a character with so much canon trauma. If your playing as Nate, a war vet, it would just make even more sense for him to have excess PTSD

I had Capgras as a child. If I lost sight of my parents in a store, then there was DEFINITELY identical strangers posing as them who found me and took me home to assume our lives. Never did find out what happened to my parents, but the replacement parents were nice....
At least that, right?
Spoopy
Sad knowing that u could be getting all u want but not be
I'm not sure if I had Capgras but when I was younger, when my parents would act out of character, I used to think that they were actually secret agents that were assigned to me. I even thought that they didn't love me and that it was just a façade.
I stopped believing that though when they kept on showing pictures of my sister and I shortly after we were born.
A significant problem of a person suffering from Capgras or any kind of 'conspiracy' type thinking is that it can be defeated by rigorous application of logic or a reductio ad absurdum, except that it's really easy to defeat such a logic argument and it can be repeated as many times as necessary: The person trying to help is part of the conspiracy. Simple. That friend you've had all your life? Replaced. Mom? Dead. Dad? Replaced. Helpful smiling doctor prescribing you proven helpful drugs? Secret agent of the government. Oh, hey, that guy over there preaching the moon landing conspiracy that the government covered it all up? Yeah that sounds familiar, everyone is out to get me, I can trust him.
Except, any reductio ad absurdum applied to any conspiracy larger than your friend group conspiring for your birthday surprise rapidly requires a tremendous number of people and at some point, a person who does not have this issue could apply Occam's Razor and say, "No, that's too ridiculous for me," which may not be possible or easy for a person suffering from Capgras. It's why arguing with a conspiracy theorist usually makes the problem worse.

Me too lol, was scrolling for someone to notice, the original creator is the now defunct Interplay (for anyone who did not know, including MatPat).
It's moronic that he doesn't credit the original creators of fallout.
But some of the original black Isle/ Interplay crew is still in Bethesda so technically you can congratulate them.

Just as a side note I like to think that (in my head anyway) they went BACK to black and white tv.

The Fallout universe doesn't have colour TV because that's where our timeline splits from Fallout's timeline where they put all their money and research into war, meaning things like the transistor and other amazing machines weren't invented meaning things would be completely differently such as colour TV.
Noah Pou this video completely forgets this. Bethesda explained half of the stuff mentioned in this video a long time ago. The fact that the transistor was never invented in he fallout universe changes so much.
You don't need transistors to make a color TV
It COULD be possible that, in the Fallout timeline, Isaac Newton never discovered what causes rainbows. In our timeline, that discovery lead to the invention of colour television.
Actually,in the Fallout world, scientific progress stopped for eveything but war in 1950. Before 1950 everything is the same as our world.

That moment when Mattpat credits Bethesda for the Fallout name when interplay made the original games
why does it matter so much? it was just a slip up, and it wasnt very importent to the story anyway.
@Furkan8k yes, because totally everyone is gonna know about Bethesda buying Fallout from a company that faded into obscurity
Yea interplay been dead for over 20 years
I don't think it means he shouldn't talk about fallout more of its kinda annoying plus he talks about fallout 2 a lot so I would kinda expect him to say interplay but honestly it doesn't matter because we know
@@pride2184 yes and no, sure interplay itself has been dead but Obsidian is made up of a majority of people who worked on F1 and F2, and still, it should be evident that Bethesda has taken Fallout into a....less interesting path. Personally idc about the debate but for some like myself I still like to remember the amazing franchise that interplay/obsidian built

This comment aged well.
hahaha yea hahaha im dead
This would make more sense if the Fallout games took place right after the Great War, but remember this is 200 years later. Most people, besides ghouls, were born into the wasteland so it's mostly normal for them. They wouldn't have PTSD from being displaced and society collapsing, and I'm sure many people have PTSD from the horrors, but not as many as you say.
SpartanWarmachine if it happened right after the great war you would either be dead, a ghoul, or a mutated humanoid monster
SpartanWarmachine i think the ptsd thing has to do with surviving while watching how a deathclaw eats your friend or a raider puts a bullet between their eyes etc.
Imagine someone you love is being mutilated by a super mutant in front of your eyes.
Oh, it's not horrific or anything.
DracotheDarkPrince but thats a normal everyday thing that had been happening since the of the great war. Eventually people would just not get PTSD from it since they know what they do
You don't see a deathclaw killing your family twice. It's like saying "If you are born after the great war you wont feel anything to your loved ones"
"no more dark and depressing theories" *immediately goes into a dark and depressing theory*
Matt deserves a slow clap and a half
*claps and halfs *
Wisecrack34 I was thinking "mat did you even look at your title"
Well, the thing is, most of people's fear and delusions in these games are completely justified.
Yeah, as someone who struggles with PTSD,
really felt like his postulations regarding mental health issues to miss the mark
Tantrika X Yup. Not really delusional if if the the things your afraid of aren't delusions. And sorry to hear about the PTSD man, that sucks.
Sam Swarms I think he was trying to establish that Fallout might be from the perspectives of unreliable narrators... Hence their beliefs appearing justified because the main character is also having paranoid delusions.
now you know why is Institute was better... they knew humans on surface were to far gone.. if humanity would grow and make society big like in the past
they needed to make humans without radiation ...

Dude.... MatPat. 5:47 "Well done Bethesda." That should be Interplay man...
Fallout 1 - Interplay
Fallout 2 - Black Isle
Fallout 3..4 - Bethesda
New Vegas - Obsidian (former Black Isle Studios employees)
I was hoping people realized this
Also, Black Isle *was* interplay. It was a team of fully dedicated individuals who wanted to nurture Fallout 2 into being as good as its predecessor.
Brandon Collins dont forget about Obsidian. they made New vegas. even though obsidian consists of eployees from both black Isle and interplay
The radiation from the bombs would have dissipated a LONG time before these games started. The background radiation in the Fallout series is largely concentrated in, relatively small pockets throughout the wasteland from leaking barrels of reactor waste, spent fuel, or damaged small scale reactors( that would have powered, well, damn near everything in this universe) melting down. And with many inhabitants having had access to, or having recovered, prewar technology, it stands to realize that that they could avoid the many of the more concentrated pockets of radiation. This is especially true of those that came from the vaults, as the vault dweller's Pip-Boys have inbuilt Geiger counters, they likely also have access to stores of anti-radiation drugs such as Rad-X and Radaway, and quite possibly radiation suits. Even some tribal societies of the wasteland have created homegrown anti-radiation drugs. And don't even get me started on the G.E.C.K.
In the glowing sea, which is the origin point of the storms, you not only find the denotation site of the Fallout 4 nuke but you can also find a destroyed nuclear power plant. A power plant which is still broadcasting a warning of an imminent meltdown on a loop.
"Well done Bathesda" on naming the game Fallout? No, that would be well done Interplay and Black Isle Studios, who developed the original game.
just goes to show you how little matpat actually knows about games.
Probably just an honest mistake. Sounds like he just wanted to throw the line in somewhere and forgot Bethesda didn't make the ones before 3. Bethesda has gone out of their way to erase Interplay from the Fallout series. Probably because of Fallout PoS, I mean BoS (not Tactics). That said, some of the devs for the original Fallout worked on Fallout 3, and were already working for Bethesda when they bought the IP because they wanted "Oblivion with guns."
Leave Bethesda alone
You are right matpat should do research
wrong, it was developed by valve in 1983
anybody notice Interplay should get the clap and a half because Interplay's RPG division (named Black Isle Studios ) made the oringinal 1 & 2 Fallouts before Interplay faced bankruptcy and sold Fallout's future to Bethesda
Chris Persich *clap and a half*
Chris Persich (does a clap and a half)
mattpatt failing to do basic research.
Clap and a half? Should be a full clap, Interplay gave the name, not Bethesda. Oh well, I guess that's what happens when you rush your research for a theory...
Have any of you researched deeply into Fallout's past? Bethesda didn't directly create the first two games, but certain members of Bethesda's team (who weren't in bethesda back then) did have a hand in Fallout's initial story creation.
Certainly an interesting theory but one that falls apart rather quickly, especially the one about all of humanity having Capgras delusions and PTSD which assume that everyone was ther during the initial bombing. Only the Sole Survivor in Fallout 4 lived before and during the initial nuclear holocaust. The first 3 games had protaganists and characters who did not live through that era and hence would have already adapted to the ever present radiation. Barring certain exceptions, almost everyone you meet are descendants of humans who survived the nuclear holocaust 200 years before
4 games before fallout 4 + the spinoffs
You forgot all the prewar ghouls
@ Dead Temple Knight Dammit you're right, I suppose they might end up having those conditions due to the sheer amount of radiation they were exposed to (assuming their minds are somehow intact enough to be sentient) though at the same time we have to consider the fact that their paranoia and PTSD might also be related to their ostracization which could justify or even create some of their mental conditions (assuming again they don't degrade into feral ghouls)
Johnny Lau They still have to do with raiders and mutants
An Emo Sushi true but there are places in the world where that happens now there's a possiblity some have PTSD but I feel most have them have grown accustomed to the lifestyle rather than see it as a traumatic event.

Shouldn't Interplay get the clap and a half?
I agree he didn't do research on who created the franchise
he didn't do his research on Fallout in general.
scrolled waaaay down to see this, not alot of Fallout fans/players here i guess.
The T Machine I don't think he did any research at all, as shoddycast did a video on the glowing sea, and how the radiation from the bombs would pretty much dissipate within I think a month, I'll link it in a comment. It sucks because I remember when he did in-depth research on each episode, now it seems he just puts them out to get them out.
Why yes they should
MatPat in 2017: 2016 was a scary year.
Me in 2020: Boi you ain't seen nothing yet.
Cherry HT hehe 2025: ya’ll are dead ya know that right?
"Say, turn this record over, you ain't heard nothing yet!"
2077 is worst
Matpat, theres some concerns with this theory. I doubt you'll ever read it but I feel i must share.
1) The whole idea of Scizophrenia being within almost all the current citizens of the wasteland is rediculous xD While perhaps the first generation of humans during when the bombs fell, would possibly have this, were now 200 years into the future, so if we say the "average" lifespan is 80 years due to time advancing and general reduction of the human life span, (also barring untimely death via raider, Brotherhood, Deathclaw, etc) Wed be 2-3 generations past the original bombs, and having both a background in the medical sciences, and a family in it aswell, Scizophrenia would NOT be caused by a quick wave of radiation hitting you as the elevator decended, it would take a much more prolonged exposure time to cause immediate damage to the brain. Scizophrenia is also a brain disorder that is developed due to a stress or malfunction in the brain, but it is not genetically passed on to their children just because they have it.
2) The concerns that people have, Synths replacing them, death around every corner, etc, is not a cause of Scizophrenia or PTSD, If it was in todays world of *relative* safety, then it would be a concern. But the fears they face are legitimate concerns brought on by the world they reside in. The possibility of a deathclaw tearing you apart is a perfectly valid fear or presumption in that world, and people have adapted that as the new normal of the world.
Thankyou to anyone who decided to read, I put a lot of 11:30 am thought into this c:
Spiketrooper Games Good commentary on the video.
Yeah, as someone who struggles with PTSD, felt like the portion of the video dealing with mental health missed the mark.
Get that it is topical and controversial and gets views to capitalize on society's current fixation with mental health issues,
but hinging the video on it felt like a weak theory compared to some of his more well-thought out videos of the past.
Yeah he mentioned that people are going through PTSD, but very few people are 200 yearso ld in the series. That wouldn't make sense.
Could the nuclear fallout cause the prolonged exposure required for schizophrenia to develop
during the games radiation is relatively rare to encounter and settlers would probably be able to avoid it.
Why clap for Bethesda? Didn't Black Isle start the game series?
Interplay did. It made me kinda mad when he congratulated Bethesda on it instead of Interplay but w/e he is human and humans make mistakes.
Because he was too busy being smug to bother doing basic research.
A painfully easy to not make mistake yes.
Yup.
Time to hire a fact checker...
Well I mean. In this particular case, people are indeed being replaced by synths.
Thats a legit fear.
Theres actually an 'event' where you have to figure out which guy is the synth out of 2 of the same person.
The Ruiner of chats I was trying to see if anyone pointed that out, like that is a major plot point and could sway wether you want to side with the institute or not. Also matpat said that the sole survivor was hit with radiation, but father says that Shaun was unaffected so the sole survivor was probably also fine.
And to add to all that in fallout 3 there is the quest where you need to find a synth for the institute so it all cant be just fake.
Yeah, it's not a conspiracy theory if it's true
Matpat's solution to curing the wasteland is putting them all on drugs
Well, more like medical drugs rather than more outlawed drugs. Essentially it's like trying to cure a junky's addiction with medication.
General Grievous Hancock would aprove
At least Hancock has the right idea
Where are you suppose to get those drugs from? All of the stores are pillaged or controlled by raiders or ghouls.
I guess you'll need to be a scientific whizz-kid and a lot of resources to create the medication, but I guess like they say; "Where there's a will, there's a way."
Anyone notice how when Mat says “I am determined to keep 2017 positive” it shows a graphic of a positive pregnancy test and 2017 WAS THE YEAR STEPHANIE GOT PREGNANT WITH OLLIE???!!! Real life foreshadowing is real, man!
what
Yep. 2 Years later I read this comment.
Are we not gonna talk about the fact that MatPat showed a Chaos Space Marine from Warhammer: 40k in place of the Enclave at 11:44 or....?
I know, right?
William Baldwin you know he doesn't edit these right?
William Baldwin same.
Yeah I was sure like, wait... Isn't that armorsuit from 40K???
Nick Dawson okay so MatPat didn't put it in, but his editors did, so ether he doesn't review what he works on or he does and didn't notice it or just didn't bother to fix it.
Giving the credit to Bethesda for naming the series really irked me man. Have you forgotten about the first two games? Interplay? Brian Fargo?
Dead Reckon It triggered me as well
Dead Reckon you didn't get it , he said Bethesda because they shown the nuclear explosion at start of fallout 4 and the aftermath of it
But they didn't name the series.
+Ray Thompson Showing a detonated nuke doesn't give them credit to the name idea, also the entireity of the FO series is exploring the aftermath ;-;
But new vegas was only published by bethesda, and most of the game was assembled from scraped Van Buren.

For anyone still reading comments 3 weeks after this video was uploaded, I have something to say. As someone who has spent their entire adult life making youtube videos, (Creator since 2006). I know how hard it is to continually churn out content week after week. It's difficult to spend time researching game after game, figuring out the tiny details, discovering the secrets, and then translating that in an entertaining way to a large audience. I may have never had the amount of viewers Mat Pat has achieved, but I know how disheartening it is when you mess up on a tiny thing and people blow it out of proportion. Mat Pat has worked for years to bring you all free entertainment. He can't possibly know everything about a game series. Everyone who is on his case about the Interplay/Bethesda debacle needs to settle down. If you can't watch his videos anymore because a man made a simple mistake, then you need to check yourself. No one is perfect. And if you only watch perfect people that make no mistakes, then get off of youtube completely, for you will find no one.

And chaos space marines aren't the enclave.

Yeah but this is Matpat. Rather than giving credit to the creators of the concept he gives it to the current owners of the franchise. Besides to be fair Black Isle studios isn't around anymore and even if most of the original team is working at Obsidian if you give them credit then you will just confuse the hell out of anyone that Didn't know the series existed before Bethesda bought it. Though to be fair the Original concept was created for Wasteland, the game Black Isle made before Fallout which was published by EA. EA wouldn't give up the name so they changed it to Fallout and reinvented it.

[Matpat] How Minecraft-- whoa, I just realized... you CRAFT, and MINE, in this game! Great job naming this game, Sega!
kashpan you're joking right? You know it's a joke?
It's part of the joke. Bethesda didn't name Fallout, but Matpat said that Bethesda did a good job naming Fallout.

thanks good sir
Bethesda has 8 letters. Fallout has 7. If you add 8 and 7 you get 15. There are 5 Game Theory videos in my recommended list. So, if you divide 15 by 5 you get three. There were three listed factions at 11:44. Don't you see it? Enclave is the government, so we don't add them to the next part. The other two factions, Brotherhood of Steel and the Railroad can be added together to make two, so 2-1=1. There is 3 points on a triangle, and 1 eye. Also, the *illuminati* is green, just like the trophy in MatPat's logo. We've been lied to by all the Fascist monarchs out there, the ones who were deceiving us the whole time. I--I d-don't really know how to say this sweetly. Minecraft was Keemstar the whole time. *BUUUUUTTTTTT THAT's JUST A THEORY. A GAME THEORY!*

Well said...

Idiots like you refer to the all-seeing eye.
Small nitpick, but Bethesda didn't come up with the name Fallout, they also weren't the creators of the franchise, they just bought the intelectual property after Fallout 2 came out
The first Fallout is developed and published by Interplay Entertainment in 1997. Bethesda has nothing to do with the idea for the name.
"The Brotherhood of Steel, The Railroad, or the Enclave" that last guy is a Space Marine from Warhammer 40k!
JimneyChristmas Dammit Tzeench! Stop sending Space Marines to other dimensions!

SPACE MARIEN!?!??!?!?!?
Maybe there is some heresy in Boston.

"name of the game "Fallout" THANKS BETHESDA! GOOD JOB!!!!!
*Interplay cries in the corner.
Bethesda didn't own fallout when it got named.
you must be fun in bed
Mr.Rankings11 I don't recall saying it did I even made fun of my self for it just being a lame fact that I knew.
How is the reply you wrote to your self from 2 hours ago, while everything else is only one hour?
Actually not a lame fact. By naming Bethesda, you are demeaning the original creators (Interplay and Black Island Studios) who created the original product and made it popular enough for Bethesda to buy the IP from Interplay. So it is kind of rude and demeaning not to at least mention the original publishers.
I was wondering that as well...

... but doing basic research is hard
I came here to post that. Made me stop watching the video because it is such simple thing to find out. If he can't be bothered to find out what group originally made the game, how can I trust any of his "research".

He wasn't talking about the enclave, he clearly says "whoever" as soon as the war hammer dude shows up,
funny, its almost as if you chose to ignore that on purpose, thereby making others believe Mat made some kind of mistake...
well whatever, I just like proving people wrong on the internet, you can go ahead and mind control as many people as you want, I won't judge,
then why did he not show a picture for the enclave?
BLOOD FOR HE BLOOD GOD
Interplay named it fallout not Bethesda. And it's a sequel to Wasteland
>Commends Bethesda for choosing 'Fallout' as game title
>Bethesda bought rights from Interplay after they made the first two Fallout games
Game theorist is now game wikipedia analyzer
L0GiC F1rst After Interplay made the first 3 Fallout games, you're forgetting Fallout: Tactics
+Count Chocula never even heard of that to be honest
L0GiC F1rst we don't like to talk about tactics, it just stays in the closet where it belongs.
L0GiC F1rst I know, slightly angry that they didn't talk abut interplay
SIFI clan lol
Bethesda didn't name fallout
thank you, came looking for this.
Bethesda ruins Fallout :'(
exactly what i was thinking
Interplay
Jaroslav Vizner No. It’s the Post-Apocylopse DLC for the Elder Scrolls.
Please make a theory surrounding Subnautica. I don't think anyone has pieced it together yet in detail.
Bad idea he never does research
Jane Casto is that game even fully out yet it would be a waste of time when the game isnt finished
It's still in early release but I'm fairly certain none of the lore will change in the final release. Most of the things getting fixed are bug-oriented, with additions of more precursor stuff. There's a story underneath what the game has already and it could be interesting to piece it together.
well its still an early release meaning there will be more story placed around everywhere like hidden logs and more underwater bases you cant really rush these things until the game is fully finished. its a good idea tho but just give it some time right now theres all this potential of story the creator can put in but after its fully realeased he cant exactly put more story just fix bugs and add items maby they will make dlc that would add even more to the story
he can't, there isn't enough of the game there yet to make a well researched theory.
I laughed so hard when that old guy just outta the blue was like *COMMIE GHOSTS*
What don't know they're dead!
“”2016 was a scary year” Laughs in 2020” AHAAAHA LAUGHING IN 2024
5:48 don't congratulate bethesda, black isle studios where the ones that created fallout
SHHHHHHHHHHH SH SH SH SH SHHHHHHH
I was thinking that too
@Balach an t-Saoghail Ùr but they did, and why do you have to say New Vegas bandwagon, I like fallout 3 and 4, but the truth is that they did
According to this website, which Wikipedia quotes, Tim Cain, the producer of Fallout 1 at Interplay, credits Brian Fargo of the name Fallout. www.polygon.com/gaming/2012/3/8/2855595/fallout-gdc-black-isle-interplay-obsidian-bethesda
Yeah but only 2 of them before the company went under and Bethesda got the rights to the franchise. So the only company you can thank is Bethesda since the original company does not exist anymore.
>applauds Bethesda for Fallout's name
wait what? I think you meant to applaud interplay...
I love how Mat Pat is talking about factions says the Enclave:
AND SHOWS A SPACE MARINE!

ok a few problems with the theory. 1. the enclave might have succeded in fixing the county had they not been destroyed. twice. mr. house didnt begin his rebuilding plans until he saw society begging to rebuild. he saw the ncr and began his plans. the ncr have begun building and are makeing good progress. also the legion are not just guys with knives. they were a real military army force that use tactics weapons and other things against the ncr. the vaults would not have helped much seeing as how they were not designed to help. they were a massive social expirament designed to test people. only 12 out of 122 vault with a nice estimate of 1000 people per vault isnt very good. if anything most vaults released worse thing than they did help. groups like the brother hood and ncr might have been able to help rebuild faster but there to busy fighting each other. thats one of fallout main points. "war never changes". even after the world ended nobody has changed. there all still fighting and killing each other. theres also giant mutant monsters all over the surface that are slaughtering and killing everybody and everything they meet. also the title fallout wasnt a bethesda idea. it was the studio interplay who made fallout 1 and 2. the game that started the series.
it also does matter what faction you join. NCR: lets people live normal ish lives and is rebuilding society and cities that are able to clean water and grow food. legion: world must exist in constant war. they only survive because there always destroying and stealing. ceaser him self says this. they need to fight the NCR just to survive. if they stop theyll starve and the entire empire will collapse.
11:45 I think joining the space marines would probably be the best for the wasteland.
That's... debatable.
They'd go from war never changes to war never ends.
not the best grammar but I get what you mean
informal geek Also, weren't House's systems heavily damaged and in some kind of "safe mode" that kept House alive but barely functioning for a long time, somewhere in the range of 150 years? If I remember correctly, New Vegas wasn't really even a thing until about a decade prior to the game taking place.
I mean, Bethesda didn't come up with the name Fallout, but whatever...
Yeah, Interplay/ black isle studios did with main designer Chris Taylor made the name aye
Not like it's super clever anyways.
Armando Pena I was thinking the same thing haha
I know that bugged me tooooo
Anyonebacon it's not like Fallout was even Bethesda's
The minutemen are honestly the best possible ending in fallout 4. Not only do they beat the institute but they're inclusive of ghouls and synths so they have generally the best morals.
Oxhorn has a great video about this. He talks about why the Minutemen are the best solution.
After watching the Fallout TV series. I hate to say that this theory has been proven wrong. The answer was rampant capitalism and ensuring they don't lose profits
11:44
Hang on a sec...
That's not an Enclave soldier...
Thats a chaos space marine from 40k...
Please tell me that that was an intricate and fun little nod to all those 40k fans and that one of you making this video plays the game itself...
And not that someone on the editing team screwed up...

Please stop
it was interplay and black isle who originally made it. thank you for saying that Bethesda did not originally make fallout OldTelephoneGameing
Hopefully the comments will encourage him to put an annotation on the video correcting his error
in theory, it would be the responsible thing to do
OldTelephoneGaming
But he did. He only said that once...I seem to recall.
Okay so one part of the fallout universe is the key point that transistors were never invented, like literally never invented. So yes there are robotics and such but they were never able to succeed in creating things like digital computers and color tv's etc.
I almost pointed that out, but figured someone else likely did...thank you.
Christian Garcia slight correction, thy were invented shortly before the Great War. Much later than our timeline, but still invented.
Christian Garcia 7
I believe the point was that things like robotics, laser weaponry etc would require those a lot more than a colour tv. Yet sentient AI powered robots still a thing.
Cuz why not
"2016 was a scary year" oh past matpat you have no idea
