The very latest from whackworld: I was just informed that the entire internet is now under

[niyad]

the control of, not the military, as previously declared, but rather, the earth alliance (comprised of many secret societies) and the intergalactic federation of space nations, who met on Jupiter in July to coordinate this takedown. The mind control frequencies that were being used have been replaced by higher, freedom-loving frequencies. (Why am I hearing the soundtrack from "The Last Starfighter" in my head???)

You are welcome. I am now calling my liquor store to see if they can make an emergency delivery.

[flying_wahini]

1. Make mine a double.

[niyad]

2. Will do. What is your preference?

[vanlassie]

3. Maybe the best action is to embellish right back to the the nutters.

Until a breaking point is reached. Use an alias tho

[niyad]

6. I m not on social media. And even my weird brain would have difficulty outdoing

the insanity.

[FakeNoose]

4. We laugh yeah, but there are people out there who BELIEVE this shit!

[niyad]

8. I am not laughing. I am horrified that this increasingly convoluted and insane

drivel is taken seriously by anyone with two arcing brain cells. I recognize some of the science fiction from many years ago, on steroids.

[ailsagirl]

36. I'm not laughing, either

I really did not realize, until dump was "elected," just how many anti-democratic crackpots there are out there.

[MissMillie]

5. Last Starfighter... fun movie (n/t)

.

[niyad]

7. I love it. Will have to watch again. Sadly, I believe that it was the last movie

that Robert Preston made.

[csziggy]

12. Preston made a couple of TV movies after Starfighter

According to IMDB.com, he was in Finnegan Begin Again (1985) and Outrage! (1986). https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0696481/

[niyad]

16. Thank you for that. I did not see either of those movies.

[csziggy]

18. Neither did I - I suspect they were pretty forgettable

IMDB.com is a great resource for this kind of information. I often check the careers of actors I admire there and sometimes find gems of performances I would never have heard of otherwise.

[niyad]

20. I use it that way as well.

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

38. It's also a great way to find names of episodes of past TV shows.

by plugging in the name of a particular actor or actress.

[Sneederbunk]

9. Your information is good enough for me. I must tell others.

[ornotna]

11. Good idea

Remember to use the new higher freedom-loving frequencies.

[GoCubsGo]

10. Maybe that will keep more of them off the Internet,

and away from all of the propaganda conspiracies that are poisoning their minds.

[niyad]

15. No. Now that the "good guys" control the internet, they are free to use it safely.

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

13. ...ON Jupiter?

Not like...on one of its moons? Like Ganymede or Europa?

They do know that Juptier's a gas giant, yes? And that there's no place to land?

[niyad]

14. Nope. ON Jupiter. After all, one cannot believe those evil scientists.

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

17. Well then...

I say we get these people a shuttle (or rocket) and then let them visit this new 'headquarters'.

[niyad]

19. A most excellent idea.

[ProfessorGAC]

37. Spot On!

Jupiter is secretly a Dyson Sphere and the gaseous planet is a hologram.
That's common knowledge within my club, "The Federation of Evil Scientists".
Maybe I shouldn't be talking about it!

[niyad]

42. Shhh. You were not supposed to say!!

[Girard442]

24. Maybe they meant Jupiter, Florida.

Would explain a lot.

[niyad]

25. I am trying to remember which movie had a bit that relied on people being from Jupiter, FL

and there was a mixup about them being aliens. Coccoon? Galaxy Quest?

[Jerry2144]

30. Just be glad that

They did not meet in Uranus.

[niyad]

43. you nearly owed me a keyboard.

[SergeStorms]

33. Every time I hear "Gas Giant".....

why does Asshole45's image pop into my mind? It's quite disturbing.

[niyad]

52. I am so glad that I have not yet eaten.

[JHB]

21. "Earth Alliance", huh?

[niyad]

22. Thank you for the reminder,

[plimsoll]

23. I'd never considered this.

Maybe one of those shadows is stuck to Mitch?

[niyad]

26. A most interesting thought. I have assumed that he was dropped off here as part

of some twisted experiment and forgotten about.

[lonely bird]

31. Hmmm...

A turtle/human hybrid perhaps?

[niyad]

44. I thought turtles had better taste?

[JHB]

35. As I understand it, all he asked Sinema and Manchin was "What do you want?"

To which, Stephen Furst has the proper answer. Doubt either of those two gave it.:

[mitch96]

27. Yup, the batshit bus to crazy town.... uff... Now where is GORT when you need him/it? nt

[niyad]

45. That is probably more efficient than a plague.

[mwooldri]

28. Well I'm sure this is news to ICANN... N/T

[renate]

29. I honestly don't know whether you're kidding or whether there really are people who believe this

Before Trump and QAnon and Facebook, I would have said that 98% of the population is conversant with reality. Now I think it’s only about 65% or so.

[niyad]

34. I wish I were kidding, but these things are actually out there, with true believers

hanging onto every post, every youtube video, from these CT nutjobs. And, sadly, this is only a small distillation of the insanity. It is so convoluted, so bizarre, it almost defies synopsis.

And I think you are being overly generous in your estimate.

[renate]

41. How do these people figure out how to flush a toilet or put their clothes on?

I don’t mean to make fun of them, I’m honestly curious about how they function. It’s so sad. What confusing and scary lives they must lead.

[niyad]

46. One of the sad things is that they are convinced that they alone know the truth.

It is according to them the rest of us who do not live in reality.

[triron]

51. So they think they took the red pill, eh.

[niyad]

53. Apparently.

[Biophilic]

32. Wow. Way cool, man. This could solve a lot of our problems.

Some people, honestly, will believe anything. I sort of wish it were true. I'd trust the aliens more than republicans at this point.

[niyad]

48. As would I.

[bucolic_frolic]

39. It's true! I plan nocturnal videocam of my rocket pad as soon as the camera arrives from China

[malthaussen]

40. It's the Illuminati, yo. n/t

[Hugin]

47. Oy.

Deep (state) inside, I know that this is the result of a generation of meth with oxy chasers.

[niyad]

49. Between that, and the dumbing down of our education system. . .

[2 Meow Momma]

50. Cheers! Here's to The Last Starfighter!

How many crazies are out there, I wonder?

[niyad]

54. . . .
