Supernatural forces
There was a pile up on I75 and several people were killed. The local radio was interviewing witnesses and a couple of them said it seemed like ‘supernatural forces’ were tossing the cars around. Ok, then.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

To some people, physics are supernatural.

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic- Arthur C. Clarke. If you’re ignorant enough not to understand, the supernatural is a plausible explanation. It’s good that our education system is so advanced that, wait, they’re teaching Spanish, homosexuality and gorebull warmening. It’s not because the future is so bright that I have to wear the shades.

Forget supernatural. I’d much rather have superluminal.

Well, corollary to Clarke’s law – any sufficiently unfamiliar application of physics to normal objects looks a lot like supernatural forces.
Using “looked like supernatural forces tossing the cars around” purely to demonstrate how freaky it looked is perfectly reasonable, and a plausible interpretation.

Didn’t that happen in Monster Hunter Vendetta?

It was caused by a super fart…

I don’t go way, way back in Florida, but didn’t they used to burn off the sugar cane fields, and didn’t that last for weeks and weeks — during which Armageddon almost never came to pass? I’m not sure that clean air initiatives are all that good for you in the long run.

Stupidity can seem like a supernatural force sometimes.

“It looked unreal” is what they were saying, I guess.
Act like gentlemen.

Personally, I wouldn’t be surprised if the cause of the accident turns out to be some celltard yapping on his phone and not paying proper attention.

“And a large man someone called ‘Franks’ was seen pulling trunk lids off cars and looking inside.”

The cause of the accident was probably that the drivers involve didn’t realize that — surprise! — you need to slow down under low visibility conditions, and probably pull over and stop under the conditions I’ve seen pictures of. Failing that, when they *did* slow down, they probably weren’t maintaining a safe following distance and smacked into each other at near highway speeds.
