To think my nail lady is a bit weird?

So she closed down her salon on Friday before it was enforced - so ok good on her. Since then she’s been posting every other single salon closure in the entire city saying this is “her influence” and they are all “following her lead”

Now she’s saying it’s all a conspiracy and they are planning to blow up Egypt and no one will even know as everyone is too concerned with corona Confused

This is all on her business page

Sounds bonkers.

Shock

Well that didn’t end how I thought it would! Grin

ViciousJackdaw · 24/03/2020 20:39

She sounds unwell, not 'a bit weird'.

AlexaCrowe · 24/03/2020 20:39

She thinks Egypt is going to get blown up and we won’t find out because of CV?! Has she seen the absolute nonsense crap that passes for ‘news’ on online news sites, even during CV/lockdown etc?

Maybe closing her business, lockdown and other factors have have a detrimental effect on her mental health. Hopefully she has someone who can help her if that’s the case.

I think they've changed or are changing the law so that only one doctor rather than two need to sign off someone being sectioned. This maybe applicable

MoonlightMistletoe · 24/03/2020 20:54

Off I go to check that conspiracy out.

Whalette · 24/03/2020 20:56

Do reach out to her that she is OK and has support please.

These are scary times for everyone, but many with a mental health condition have had to endure it worsening over the last few weeks.

CorinnaSinner · 24/03/2020 20:57

I just listened again and she said ... what if they wipe out Egypt or they are doing something else behind the scenes but we would never know because of CV.

I’d like to think despite the 99% of news being about CV that we would notice the disappearance of an entire country,

Perhaps she was meaning hypothetically the government's could be using CV as a distraction for something else, and was using Egypt as an example. She may not think they're actually going to "blow up egypt".
So many conspiracy theories going about at the moment. My teenagers are the worst for it. They believe Kim from North Korea made the virus and that's why no North Koreans have so far been infected. Bless them. Have seen on facebook some of my conspiracy theorist friends state china made the virus to reduce their population by killing off the elderly, but the virus has since mutated beyond control and can now "get anyone", and all the governments knew this, so that's why they didn't initially panic as they could all lose some of the elderly population, but since the mutation, they're now panicking and enforcing lockdowns!
Another was that Gretta invented the virus to kill off most of humanity so the world has a chance!!

Love to read conspiracy theories!

Mlou32 · 24/03/2020 21:17

I thinl perhaps she is unwell.

cushioncovers · 24/03/2020 21:18

Are you sure her page hasn't been hacked ?

Elouera · 24/03/2020 21:19

Does she have mental health problems?

Iwalkinmyclothing · 24/03/2020 21:28

She sounds unwell.

Thumbtoestofu · 24/03/2020 21:31

That was an excellent plot twist at the end! Grin

WriteronaMission · 24/03/2020 22:18

Well that was an ending I didn't expect...

EmeraldShamrock · 24/03/2020 22:21

Corona is having a crazy affect on many people far worse than a full moon. Grin She sounds bonkers.

SoleBizzz · 24/03/2020 22:22

Why Egypt and nor Finland?

DailyKegelReminder · 24/03/2020 22:23

That is one of my favourite endings to an opening thread. Crazy ass.

SallySun123 · 24/03/2020 22:26

Mental healths problems to put that on her business page, she sounds unwell.

tttigress · 24/03/2020 22:30

Is she from Egypt? Maybe time to find a new mail technician?

AlexaCrowe · 24/03/2020 22:33

@SoleBizzz Finland doesn’t exist.

SoleBizzz · 24/03/2020 22:40

Akexa I'm not checking. So there

SoleBizzz · 24/03/2020 22:42

Akexa

You are naughty

David Icke springs to mind (you have to be of a certain age)

Seriously, I suspect she is quite ill. In my limited experience, her actions suggest bipolar.

SittingAround1 · 24/03/2020 22:44

Perhaps it's the stress of closing her business. She's lost her livelihood.
