You git.
I have a co-worker who is a huge conspiracy theorist. I mean huge. He doesn't even bother trying to expound the more "normal" theories being voiced on these pages (9/11, faked moon landings, etc) because as far as he's concerned, those are established facts - in much the same way as I don't feel the need to explain or defend a statement that I like bacon sandwiches. Every day, he rambles on to a greater or lesser extent and presents varying degrees of 'proof' for his current bugbears. He's a nice bloke and at least it's not boring, but the constant stream of wild ideas (not to mention the assertions of my stupidity for not realising "the truth") can get a bit much.

This week, he is on holiday.

This week, this blessed, conspiracy-free week, I can work without hearing a word of secret cabals, military technology, the evils of everything from banks to Thomas the Tank Engine (yes, seriously).

And yet this week, the fucking QOTW is on conspiracy theories.

If I didn't know better I'd swear someone had planned it JUST to piss me off.

Sorry...
I never thought this would get chosen. Maybe it's a conspiracy..?
