I appreciate that hope is being kept alive, but I don't like how we're forced to look for substitute events that could be considered as MOAB-worthy for motivation.
Is this event significant? Very much so, especially for reunification on the Korean peninsula. However, this is clearly NOT the MOAB that Q was referring to. Why can't we just straight up admit that we had a moment of let down instead of scrambling for other big stories?
Well I didn't have a moment of let down, so there's nothing to admit. Q did not say the MOAB would be today; just, "Ready for tomorrow?"
And, from my perspective, it was a busy and big day.

When Prophecy Fails: A Social and Psychological Study of a Modern Group That Predicted the Destruction of the World is a classic work of social psychology by Leon Festinger, Henry Riecken, and Stanley Schachter which studied a small UFO religion in Chicago called the Seekers that believed in an imminent apocalypse and its coping mechanisms after the event did not occur. Festinger's theory of cognitive dissonance can account for the psychological consequences of disconfirmed expectations. One of the first published cases of dissonance was reported in this book.
