SO im checking the Archive for the predictions from last years and im was right for MOST of the predictions i made. Others have'nt yet come to pass so they are still up in the air. Also reading some of the other ARFCOMERS prediction swas pretty funny here are some, If you dont want me posting yo shit gimmie an IM and ill edit it. What i said exactly one year ago-
Stock market will continue to remain stagnant. well im HAPPY i was wrong on this one. MAde a little coin on that with my stocks. Housing bubble will not burst but will go down by around 15%. TRUE, This one i could see coming but i knew it would'nt freaking collapse.
gasoline will hover at around 2.90 a gallon. TRUE, of course i was talking about Premium in the Long Island area, not some "national average" on regular or something, around the corner from my house premuim is around 2.90 right now.
Either Iran will get hit by Isreal or It will go nuclear but nothing will come of it except now we can't fuck with them any longer but they will continue to fuck with us in Iraq. NA, This one has nither come true NOR been proven false, Israel could still hit Iran and it could still go nuclear. So that one still stands. Hurricane season will be as bad as '05 but people will still think its a "natural cycle" FALSE, on this one i was also wrong, It has'nt been worse than an average season. Alito WILL get the nomination. TRUE, Well anyone could see that after his debacle with the cleaning lady nomination that Alito would become a new justice.
The election? depends, if unforseen bad events happen and iraq continue to go bad the repubs will take a hit but not a bad one. TRUE, I kinda had a gut feeling the Repubs would lose in november simply because of Iraq, but i said "not a bad hit" that is debateable since they lost both houses, was it a BAD HIT?
Iraq belive it or not will stay the same. It wont get worse but neither will it get better. Both sides are just waiting for us to leave. If it looks like were not going to leave anytime soon then it will get worse by 2007. TRUE, although im sure some would argue this with me, i dont think anything has really changed in Iraq, again its no worse but no better, they are still on the verge of civil war and casualties for 2006 were on par with 2005.
Oh and western/islamic relations will only get worse. Look for more shit in Europe, but not the US true, nuff said |
Then there are some of the Predictions made by other members:

HOUSTON HUSKER said: China and Iran involved in warfare with Israel. Syria will be decimated. Zarqawi will be caught. true bin Laden dies before he's captured. Saddam will be hung.true

I predict someone will bring up Waco, again. TRG and ILL will continue their flamboyant escapades. DaBunny's meds will be raised. Someone will ask the benefits of a 1/7 barrel. The great Wolf ammo debate. Someone will debate .45acp vs 9mm. Olympic Arms will still suck. I will get laid Darth Vader will choke a bitch I predict the SHRIKE will be delayed another year! McCain's NVA mind control chip finally shorts out and he returns to being normal.
