Board 8 > Imagine being a rando living on Earth in the MCU (IW spoilers)

(+) Yeah! (+)

Going on your daily life then one day, New York is invaded by aliens and the next, 50% of life has vanished.

New York was invaded by aliens in a 3 block radius 6 years ago.

Both of those are less shocking than Donald Trump winning.

Imagine living as a rando in the world where this happens:

My life would basically be the same since I don't live in New York.

Except for the part where Norse mythology has been confirmed to have been based on something real thus messing with every religious group in your area. Not the mention the snap, where suddenly half of everyone just dead out of nowhere for no reason you can see assuming youre in the surviving half.

Right, so my life would still be basically the same.

I would prefer a world with half the population.

Also, like an entire country got lifted out of the ground and then blown up, alien elves invaded London and screwed with the fabric of reality, a huge blue blob grew out of the back of a Dairy Queen completely unexplained, and also yeah Norse myth

I dunno I feel like you'd get a lot of people becoming completely nihilistic at a certain point, since your life is basically in the hands of these weird costumed guys and their various villains

Sounds like a normal day at Dairy Queen tbh.

But it seems like it's so easy for even normal people to be super heroes in that verse anyway. You wouldn't have to stay a rando for long if you didn't want to. Just go find one of those secret societies that are all over the place, or volunteer for some weird government experiment (there's like a ton of those), or be moderately smart enough to build some super technology (it seems like everybody is capable of doing that even if they're not a super-genius), or be really good with a specific weapon that would be considered useless in any real fight no matter what universe you live in but because you're trained with it you somehow gain plot armor.
