I can mention a conspiracy theory at the grocery store like what satanic messages will be in the superbowl half time show, or what evil is the government up to, and I am understood. I remember being so scared to tell my best friend my views on vaccines when she told me first that she didn't vaccinate her kids. I thought I was the only person who believed in chemtrails. Turns out 3 of my neighbors knew exactly what I was talking about.
So, someone has to put lies out there because there are other conspiracies that are true and people are figuring it out.
Did you notice Ted Cruz was going to fight Trump even though he had no chance of winning until someone implicated his dad in the JFK assassination? Boy did he sit down fast after that.
A guy is driving around the back woods of Montana and he sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house: 'Talking Dog For Sale.'
He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard.
The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador Retriever sitting there.
"You talk?" he asks.
"Yep" the Lab replies.
After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says, "So, what's your story?"
The Lab looks up and says, "Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA. In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping, I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running... but the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals. I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired."
The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.
"Ten dollars" the guy says.
"Ten dollars? This dog is amazing! Why on Earth are you selling him so cheap?"
"Because he's a liar. He's never been out of the yard."
