'I canNOT believe these texts': Landlord shuts off power to entire complex for 2 hours because he believes the emergency alert will make everyone 'spontaneously combust'

We all get a little delulu at times and act according to what we truly think is the right way. Only from stepping away, gathering empathy, and really taking a good look at the entire picture do you have your epiphany that maybe, just maybe, you were getting a little out of hand there. 

Unfortunately, there are many people out there who, for some reason or another, cannot take those steps towards self realization and they make it everyone around them's problem. That is exactly what happened with this delulu landlord recently. 

Everyone remembers the emergency broadcast that happened several days ago, right? Well, apparently, if you went down a dark and deep rabbit hole on the web you would find that many people believed that it would cause some serious chaos with our electronics and, in some cases, human spontaneous combustion. (Remember Y2K anyone?) This landlord was convinced all this chaos was bound to happen when the alert went off, so he told all of his tenants he was going to cut the power for 2-3 hours in the middle of the day while it was going off. 

This was very inconvenient, especially since many worked from home. The rabbit hole this story induces is a whole other ride. See for yourself below! The Redditor got interviewed by YouTuber Matt Binder about it and he even started a GoFundMe to help him fund moving out.
