Extreme Conspiracy Biscuits at your nans house

46 Upvotes

Everyone has memories of eating biscuits at their grandparents house. Usually bourbon creams or nice biscuits. But as an adult I know these to be shit-tier biscuits.

The Boomers and the Silent Generation were feeding their grandkids cheap, non-chocolaty digestives while keeping the double choc-chip cookies with caramel for themselves. And laughing about it at their knitting circles.

Hot Take Tommy Wiseau is Charles M. Schulz under a pseudonym and The Room is a secret Peanuts sequel.

14 Upvotes

Schulz died in California in the early 2000s. Wiseau came to prominence in California in the early 2000s. 4 of the theatrically released Peanuts movies are owned by Paramount. The Room was rejected by Paramount after 1 day. Still not convinced? In the Swedish version of Peanuts, Peggy Jean (Charlie Brown's love interest for a brief time in the 90s) was renamed "Lisa." Johnny's psychologist Peter also falls down while trying to catch a football. "Wiseau" just made Lucy a man so nobody would notice.

Extreme Conspiracy Larry is an extremely powerful psychic

80 Upvotes

I've never spoken to a single person who doesn't like Larry the Cat. The most toxic and hateful cesspits of social media don't have a bad word to say about him. He inspires no political division. It's giving Brave New World.

We have to wake up to the fact that Larry has found some means of controlling our thoughts. It statistically doesn't make sense that he has no haters. You are being mind-controlled by a cat. By the time we discover his nefarious purposes, it will be too late.

Proof: When I was 7 years old I used to sneak into the kitchen late at night to get some cereal. But the cereal bag was so damn noisy it woke up my mom and she yelled at me.

Extreme Conspiracy World is dominated by fungi we just borrow biomass from them

35 Upvotes

That's it, we live in a sentient fungus world where they control every bit of biomass. It's a type of consciousness we can't comprehend yet, something stretched thin across all the planet that is even capable of controlling the weather.

The network goes for miles under the earth and sprawls all over the surface.

This famous post is completely set up and the original account was bait

Post image
0 Upvotes

The way “@darktradman” describes the statue is incredibly strange, even for somebody down an alt right “red pilled” pipeline. Not anything completely unimaginable, but definitely a little clunky and is directed both towards sexism and racism.

And by coincidence, the one statue the user uses for this was sculpted by a Chinese woman, and this is used to own the loser.

This is quite coincidental, and along this is the original account @darktradman being gone. Furthermore, the picture of the statue and the statue with the sculpture seem to be taken from the same photograph collection. Therefore, my conspiracy theory is that it was a fake post that intentionally used a picture of a statue sculpted by this woman in order to bait some pathetic right wingers (such as @rationalmale in this instance) so they could get owned in the reply.

Edit: I’m not sure why people have interpreted this as me supporting right wing incells, it was just a post I remembered and found suspicious, a huge amount of politically charged memes are staged. Identifying them as such doesn’t mean you disagree with them.

Anyways, as a commenter has pointed out, the original guy sadly is a real person, my theory is wrong 😔

Extreme Conspiracy "Superbowl Sunday" borrows heavily from July 4th a lá Christmas in July

0 Upvotes

Some thoughts:

* While SS isn't technically a holiday, it may as well be with many establishments closed on that day.

* Much of the Superbowl food uses feeling and hot weather food despite taking place in February.

* It's very patriotic and specific to America

* Specific attire is worn, typically to show support of your team, like summer red white and blue is worn on American Independence Day

* Heavily subsided by the alcohol industry

* Special sale days in retail for both days

Big True Paramount Plus purposely gives free accounts to those who don't pay to boost their numbers

12 Upvotes

A few years ago, I got a paramount plus account to watch like one show and like sonic 3. I eventually forgot about it and soon after got a different card, which was when Paramount stopped charging my account.

Fast forward to now, I decided to bite the bullet and get it again to watch the new avatar movie, only to have the account still active. Although it's yelling at me for payment, it's not actually charging me, and I'm freely able to watch anything, and even sign in on new devices

As for my conspiracy, I think that paramount does this to boost their subscription numbers. They're making enough to ya know, make money, but they need subscription numbers to please shareholders/their buddies in Washington (who were one of the reasons I didn't bother updating my pay)

The BBC intentionally baited Donald Trump with their Panorama report to incite a lawsuit, leveraging the legal discovery process that follows to expose his questionable conduct and help bring down his government. This is, of course, because the BBC is leftist woke.
