MN is run by the CIA, Putin, and Mossad acting in concert. You read it here first.

GrandTheftWalrus · 23/02/2018 17:14

This and the other thread has been very interesting.

Weedsneeds1 I remember conversations very much like that re Savile.

My DM says she heard rumours about Savile back in the 70's! It was always known he liked young girls apparently. Why was nothing done?!

Weedsnseeds1 · 23/02/2018 17:40

I think he liked anything with ( or without) a pulse ManicUnicorn .
I don't know why nothing was done, it wasn't a secret, but it just seemed accepted in a way it wouldn't be now. Just "one of those things". Nobody back then seemed to think it was worthy of action, it was almost treated as a harmless quirk. It's hard to explain.

I love conspiracies. Some ones I heard recently :

Micheal Jackson isn't dead. He is now a burns victim and artist called Dave Dave.

Michelle Obama is trans or intersex.

Some of my favorites:

The Queen is a lizard
Space is fake
Aliens built the pyramids (I'm pretty sure this is true)
Aliens altered the dna of apes to create humans.
Mk ultra and the monarch mind control program.

WheresTheHooferDoofer · 23/02/2018 18:23

he coroner pronouncing all 20 children and 6 adults dead two hours after entering the school - would they have not been taken to a hospital for an autopsy before this declaration was made? These are just questions that I can't see any logistical answer for.

I may have missed something here, but surely you don't need an autopy just to pronounce someone is dead? An autopsy is to determine cause of death, after the pronouncement is made. All the pronouncement is for is to confirm the person has actually died, so there's no mystery here as far as I can see.

Twocatsonebaby · 23/02/2018 18:28

Might have already been commented, but I like the flat earth theories. Obviously I don't believe it though

ghostyslovesheets · 23/02/2018 18:30

well yes - I think legally you HAVE to BE dead BEFORE they can do an autopsy Grin Hmm

BeyondTerfyCassandra · 23/02/2018 18:45

If you're not dead before, you certainly will be after!!

MrsElvis · 23/02/2018 19:04

Not so much of a conspiracy but last night on MN I was searching for a post that I had read and lost as I hadn't commented. I was trying to search keywords like "affair" "cheated" "cheating"....

Today my Facebook is awash with suggested posts from kobo and amazon, sample chapters on sexy affair stories and some company called get your sparkle back on how to recover after an affairShock

BeyondTerfyCassandra · 23/02/2018 19:23

Sassh, they did have autopsies.

And re being pronounced dead at the scene. Those who died were shot between 3-11 times each at relatively close range, with a relatively high velocity semi-automatic rifle. Knowing who was beyond saving in such a situation would not have been rocket science.

Can we get back to the silly things now please?

A fun one I like is the New/Classic coke

Mrs - look at your cookie settings. It's not the illuminati taking over. But, if it makes you happy, assume it is.

Justanotherlurker · 23/02/2018 19:55

Oh and obviously that Keanu Reeves is actually immortal

Afternooncatnap · 23/02/2018 20:14

Wasn't Putin the same age in 1920

MrsElvis · 23/02/2018 20:28

@gussyfinknottle oh really Wink I'm crap with tech thank you

Justanotherlurker · 23/02/2018 21:29

@Afternooncatnap

Grin I was going to include Putin in the immortal conspiracy.

The funny rabbit hole you go down with that and keanu is that apparently immortals are running out of places to hide now because of the advent of everyone having cameras, and even that Google, microsoft, facebook at al are pushing the face recognition stuff so they can hunt them down Grin

Iwasjustabouttosaythat · 24/02/2018 00:50

LOVE the Keanu is immortal. My favourite “shocking fact” is that Keanu is actually 2 years older than Kiefer Sutherland.

I watched John Wick a few weeks ago and sadly I can confirm that he is ageing (or is it all make up? 🤔). I can also confirm that he is like a fine wine. 🍷

He still hasn’t married me but I think it’s likely just the lizard overlords trying to keep us apart because our babies would be too beautiful.

QueenOfTheAndals · 24/02/2018 07:26

Keanu is also the same age as Nigel Farage, and Brad Pitt is actually older than him!

SofieMonde · 24/02/2018 07:44

^ O M G Keanu Nigel Keanu Nigel........polar opposites

Saffronwblue · 24/02/2018 08:06

I also wonder about princess Charlene. Seems that the wedding was so close to being cancelled.

Backenette · 24/02/2018 08:11

Absolutely no patronisation meant! ‘Light bedtime reading’ is a common term for ‘Jesus I have to plough through this sodding paper written in awful dense academic prose’ no?

And I’m not a bloke! I’m a card carrying radical feminist :)

Anyhoo no offence meant to anyone. ;) placemarking because I really enjoyed the last one

QueenOfTheAndals · 24/02/2018 08:36

@Saffronwblue Agree that the Charlene thing was weird and for years she went around looking miserable and like she'd been drugged. She seems much happier since she had the twins though.
