Why anyone would want to watch the Queen's speech I have no idea. They should show an episode of Embarrassing Bodies instead.
Awful I know but we've all done it.

Well, based on the BBC headline, I wouldn't be surprised:
"Sherlock beats the Queen"
I didn't bother reading the rest, but beating up old ladies is not something I approve of.

For me, the most convincing conspiracy theory it's Brexit.Originally posted by xoggoth View PostThing in the DT is interesting:
Dear Graham Norton: 'My son's belief in conspiracy theories is harming our relationship'
Not sure that's all that unusual. On Boxing day the family were discussing a relative who seems rather obsessed with conspiracy theories, it's his main topic of conversation.
Some conspiracy theories are pretty daft, I can't imagine the Holocaust for example, given the scale, time and number of witnesses involved could seriously be faked. On the other hand, given human nature, I also can't seriously imagine that those with power and influence don't try and fake, cover up, or worse, to suit their agendas.
So what conspiracy theories do you lot find most convincing?

Did a year in Dublin, certainly where I was in Sandyford the pubs few and far between! Even in the City no more than anywhere else. Temple Bar touristy, I used to decamp in the Porterhouse near Trinity, one spectacular afternoon next to three French lasses when it was France - England in RU, France winning all the way, England won in the end, and I said to these girls proudly, "I'm ENGLISH!!'
One of them said 'I know!!' and blanked me. Bitch...
On New years eve I was walking down Grafton Street, not many if any pubs along there, totally packed, totally impossible to see 12 inches in front of you, totally didn't see this bollard, totally almost ripped my considerable bollocks off.
That hurt.....

Don't believe itOriginally posted by ladymuck View PostI heard a theory that there is a route you can walk through Dublin that doesn't go past a pub.
