ARTICLEWith the number of people who checked in to storm Area 51 now around 2 million, we can see that the public has recognized their power to collectively organize against the government in the name of aliens. So, what's the next step? Wall Street? Tackling Trump?
Nah, let's storm the Bermuda Triangle. It can't stop all of us!
Because the viral energy clearly hasn't died down, we now have a bunch of parody copycat events attempting to capture the chaotic energy that made the original Area 51 event so magical. Well, until the Air Force stepped in and told us to knock it off, that is.
Shoes laced up and ready to Narutorun into action, what are we supposed to do now? We need to storm something.
So if you have a hankering to feel unstoppable against the hands of the government, here are some more (satirical) events to attend! We have to emphasize the satiricalpart. Please don't storm the IRS. There are no aliens there. Actually, don't storm anything. Stay home.
Storm Loch Ness Credit: SCREENSHOT/FACEBOOK A spokesperson for the Royal National Lifeboat Institute told CNN, "There's really no need to 'storm' Loch Ness, given that it is open to the public 24/7, 365 days a year."
Storm Harvard Credit: screenshot/facebook Understandable, that acceptance rate is nuts.
Storm the Bermuda Triangle Credit: SCREENSHOT/FACEBOOK "After our forces recoup from 'storm Area 51,' and learn how to use the alien technologies. We will take the flying saucers 🛸 and make our way to the unseen land. We can’t all get lost if everyone goes!"

Storm Mt. Everest Credit: SCREENSHOT/FACEBOOK I think John Oliver already explained best why storming the "cold peaks and yeti cheeks" of Everest is a terrible idea.
Storm Area 52 Credit: Screenshot/facebook Come on people, are y'all serious? No originality, none of you.
History buffs also joined in on adding their favorite revolutions and riotous events they would've loved to storm, given the opportunity.

Sounds like fun!
Storm Berwick to Reclaim Alba Credit: SCREENSHOT/FACEBOOK Any group that's been invaded by England should get a free pass to invade England at least once. Like the event description says, "They cannae stop us all."
Storm the Bastille Credit: Screenshot/facebook Let's get this bread, folks.
There were also the fictional locations for if you want to storm somewhere with slightly more pizazz.
Storm Jedi Temple Credit: SCREENSHOT/FACEBOOK Omw to mess up some younglings.
Storm the Fire Nation Credit: SCREENSHOT/FACEBOOK Tragic backstory not included.
Storm the Brotherhood Citadel Credit: screenshot/facebook "The Brotherhood Of Steel has been hiding advanced technology and secrets from us for too long!"
Of course, since this all started with a mysterious government base, it was only fair that it would proceed with the storming of other government facilities. While most of these were still in jest, it's hard not to pick up on the sentiment that maybewe should be using our collective powers for good and not just for memes.
Storm the Federal Reserve Credit: SCREENSHOT/FACEBOOK While the military is occupied over in Area 51, bring your pitchforks down to the Federal Reserve for some free money.
Storm the White House Credit: SCREENSHOT/FACEBOOK Well since it's a group, not an event, that means they'll be more organized right? Right?
Overthrow the Government Credit: SCREENSHOT/FACEBOOK The boldest and most ambitious of them all. I'm sure whatever you find in there is a whole lot less interesting than an alien to take home and be your best friend.
Not to be corny, but we don't have to always be breaking down walls and outrunning bullets. Our powers can be used for good! There are serious issues that deserve the same amount, if not more, of communal action we're seeing around the Area 51 memes.
Volunteer in your local community! Attend a rally! And may I suggest Narutorunning to an animal shelter or two and adopting one of those furry alien buddies?
