1
“That the government collaborated with tech companies to promote taking “selfies” to advance facial recognition software.”

2
“The cardboard rolls that toilet paper are on have gotten wider in diameter over the years. This is one way to make the rolls look bigger. Because you know 6 mega rolls equals 32 normal sized rolls…”

“For the record, serious answer. But, there’s this soup place at our local mall that’s been there for three years now. I’ve never seen anyone order anything from there, and I rarely see anyone at the register. When our mall was closed due to COVID lockdown/quarantine, several locally owned stores shut down, and a few places in the food court. Last time I was there was for my birthday in August, and the soup place is still there. My mom and I have an array of theories about what it could be, ranging from money laundering to a front for drugs, but I cannot believe that place is legitimate.”

4
“That video game companies got a taste of the kind of money that gambling brings in and changed an entire industry to emulate the casino structure but for children.”

5
“The media is the biggest shit stirrer of fear and anger and use it in order to stay relevant to keep the funds rolling in.”

6
“Apple made the original AirPod memes and jokes to boost the sales on them after their sales sucked the first year.”

8
“Rob Dyrdek has gotta have some serious dirt on someone at MTV to have Ridiculousness on as much as possible, and constantly filming new episodes.”

9
“That the Department of transportation bought way too many traffic cones but had nowhere to store them so they just move them from road to road.”

10
“There are people out there hired by companies to make dozens of fake accounts that retweet, reblog, etc and act like real people just to advertise products.”

11
“Most construction companies in America today are run by the talentless kids of the people who actually knew construction.”

12
“Baby wipe containers are purposely made so that you always pull 2-3 wipes out at a time and therefore need to buy more often. It’s definitely something I can see Big Wipe engaging in to get just a few more containers out of us each year!”

13
“Women’s clothing doesn’t have adequate pockets because the purse and handbag industry wants to ensure women continue to buy bags to carry their things.”

14
““Deflate Gate” was a distraction from brain damage and domestic abuse scandals in the NFL. And I say this as someone who hates Tom Brady. It should have just been a small fine and forgotten quickly. But this is the type of scandal the NFL can tolerate whereas brain injuries and domestic abuse can hurt the league’s reputation. And it worked! Distraction and new cycle dominated by this for an entire off-season rather than more serious issues.”

15
“That the government creates or at least promotes crazy conspiracy theories to make the true ones seem crazy by association.”

16
“The government watch us, but not on a individual level, like they don’t read every email and text you send is more like they and algorithm that filters of the metadata of the people and use that determine the possible dangers to a zone.”

“Dollar slice pizza places. This may not make sense to people who don’t live in New York City. We have these great places that sell a plain slice of pizza (cheese only) for $1.00. I can’t believe they make rent and payroll on volume with $1.00/slice and the going rent rates. This has to be some sort of money laundering scam, but one where no one cares because you get a slice of pizza for a dollar. Might not be the best pizza, but damn, a dollar slice. I’ll always stop in if I’m passing one on the street. This just can’t be economically feasible and something else is going on.“
