In a scene straight out of a sci-fi comedy, a self-proclaimed time traveler, who identified himself as "Timmy Timewarp," has been causing quite the stir in New York City after allegedly arriving from the year 2025. His attempts to warn the unsuspecting citizens of the year 2000 about the bizarre events of the 2020s have landed him in Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital for evaluation.
Timmy's first order of business was to inform the locals that Donald Trump, the flamboyant real estate mogul and reality TV star, would ascend to the presidency. "People just laughed," said Officer Linda Myers, who was first on the scene. "But when he started talking about a ship blocking the Suez Canal and teenagers eating detergent pods, we knew we had a situation on our hands."
The time traveler’s tales didn’t stop there. He went on to describe a global pandemic that would lead to widespread toilet paper shortages, causing supermarket skirmishes over the last roll. "And it happens twice!" he exclaimed, much to the bemusement of his audience.
Timmy also claimed that a South Korean pop song, "Gangnam Style," would become a global sensation, and that a billionaire would launch his own car into space. "He said it was just for fun," Officer Myers recounted, shaking her head in disbelief.
Perhaps most perplexing was Timmy's mention of NFTs, which he described as digital images of cartoon monkeys selling for millions. "When I asked why anyone would buy such a thing, he just started crying," Officer Myers added.
Dr. Robert Henderson, a psychiatrist at Bellevue, was equally baffled by Timmy's stories. "He talked about people storming Area 51 to find aliens and a research vessel named 'Boaty McBoatface.' I had to prescribe a sedative after that."
Nurse Maria Gonzalez, who has been caring for Timmy, noted his frequent mutterings about "TikTok" and its bizarre challenges, including licking toilet seats for internet fame. "It sounds like he watched too much 'Back to the Future,'" she speculated. "But who could make up stories this wild?"
Authorities have decided to keep Timmy under observation, especially after overhearing him talk about "murder hornets," "flat-earth believers," and a disastrous luxury festival with cheese sandwiches on a tropical island.
The NYPD has reassured the public, stating, "These claims are obviously too absurd ever to become reality." Meanwhile, Timmy Timewarp remains a curious enigma, leaving New Yorkers to wonder if perhaps the future is stranger than fiction.
