wait, holy shit i just noticed... i think this building was made by the tartarians! i mean, they even left their signature there! how is no one talking about this??6???
Holy Shit! That is even pyrimad shaped. There's no way a 20th century human built that without also getting guidance from the same Aliens đź‘˝ that showed the Egyptians and Mayans. Amazing!
Modern building codes can’t even begin to comprehend the Los Angeles “Dingbat” apartment. Modern requirements say that “soft story” buildings are not safe in Earthquakes - yet some of these apartments still endure across Southern California.
How were they doing it 60 years ago? Where did these apartment blocks come from? What evidence remains of the methods used in construction?
I'm a flat baseballer. Baseballs are actually flat. Otherwise, there's just no way that a knuckleball could work. Think about it.
Also, the home plate isn't a pentagon. It's a square. And the so-called "diamond" is actually a triangle. Left field is a sphere, right field is a torus, and the fans watch from a hyper cube.
Was visiting an old town in Italy over the summer and joked with my wife, "You're claiming an Italian moved these giant rocks out to form a peer? Impossible. Must have been aliens."
Yeah - the “mudflood” shit is all over Facebook. I was really surprised at this post because it’s not hard to find people who believe this already.
Sorry my previous comment didn't explain: you gotta choose something which won't have tens of thousands of pages of architectural documents describing exactly how humans made it.
Yeah, I've actually heard it. In all seriousness someone claimed neoclassical architecture in New York was proof that the Greeks and Romans visited the Americas long before the Europeans got here
Well yeah, do you think Americans can cooperate? Look at them. No way any one of them could make a whole building on their individualist exceptional lonesome either.
That kinda works in post-Soviet countries. "It is impossible to build this factory in such bloody mountains!" or "there's no chance that thing flew, not according to the modern engineering" or "this factory is automated to make bread out of raw ingredients? No, it wasn't possible in 1930"
One of my previous apartment buildings has a reputation in the area for being a cryptid. Something about its hallways causes people to get lost super easilly. Everyone who lived there, myself included, only took a few practiced routes out of the building as to not take a half hour detour lost in the endless industrial corridors.
Sure. We'd have to adapt the conspiracy theory a bit to make it believable.
I'd like to propose one that also explains the suspicious abundance of banks and real estate offices. They were secretly funded by alien pedophile cabals so they could spy on the populace and mind control them. The initial alien expeditionary forces mistakenly reported back that bankers and real estate agents are the most beloved people on earth so they thought it would be the perfect disguise.

If you look closely, you can see that the pyramid's builders inscribed the exact date of completion: BRONZAGE.

This ancient mural depicting a siren could be found in all the major settlements of the time. This could indicate they were a seafaring people.

Well, and some of them don't. Some of them killed people in earthquakes.

Ancient Architect theorists believe there may have been other reasons those collapsed.
Whether it is due to ley lines, morphic fields, or seismological refits - we may never know.

Of course, she rebuted that this is ridiculous. We know how Italians moved big stones. They just asked a friendly Cyclops.
