Conspiracy theory nuttersI keep getting collared by a bloke who says that the war in Afghanistan is a cover for our Illuminati Freemason Shapeshifting Lizard masters to corner the market in mind-bending drugs. "It's true," he says, "I heard it on TalkSport". Tell us your stories of encounters with tinfoil hatters.
Thanks to Davros' Granddad

Y2KQue?'s post just reminded me
I loved the whole Y2K thing. I was paid £2000 to sit in the office from midnight till 7am (taking over from the previous shift).
I was absolutely shit faced when i got there and then spent the next seven hours drinking bubbly with my mates and doing lines of coke.
We already knew there was no way the world was going to end and it turned out to be the easiest money I'd ever earned.
Wish we could have it again :-/

Iknow the feeling.
I was paid 800 quid and a free mobile phone for sitting at my desk reading a newspaper on the 2nd Jan 2000 from 8am until midday.
Happy days!

Sheesh ...you lucky b3tard.
I was in Edinburgh at the time. The doomsday scenario we were working with was:
1. Pumps fail at Loch Katrine. No water for most of Southern Scotland.
2. DWP ricketty old mainframe shits and dies. No dole/pension payments.
Shit ... that would've been a riot that would've made the Miner's Strike look like fuckin Woodstock.
