Hi, I enjoyed it a lot. Guess it's just a matter of taste though. Sorry I'm a bit late replying to you. ✌♥️🇬🇧
The war of the world's. Didn't the telling of this story lead lots of people to believe it was real and caused a panic?
It caused a mass panic and the authorities had to restore calm. News broadcasts had to announce it wasn’t happening. People also lost their lives due to this.
Imagine believing fake news. 😢😅😂😮
@@seanbailey6004 Really😳, I definitely have to hear this one!
@@DreamingCatStudio imagine 🤣🤣🤣
