Conspiracy Theory Types

    Do you know anyone personally who is big into conspiracies? Big into 9/11, illuminati, Satan and the occult, ufos, etc. I know a few myself and they always tend to be similar enough meaning they tend to have a few of the following:

    - Have some history of mental illness
    - Problem with drink/drugs
    - Poor social skills
    - Loners
    - Quick to anger, looking for conflict
    - A penchant for drama

    To name but a few. That said, I'm only basing this on the few people I know who are into this stuff. I wonder if these conspiracies are some kind of comfort to them in dealing with these issues, or is my sample a bit skewed?

    You just described at least 90% of the regular posters in After Hours.

    Yeah you're right, I think they are up to something.

    Any I know seem to just spend their time smoking weed and not doing much else with their lives.

    Quite sad, because they're mostly really nice, and I can see they're bored as hell, with a lot of potential. Instead they waste it and sit around coming up with theories for why it's not working out for them.

    Mod: Let's not go down the road of bashing members of Boards.
    And yes, this is a conspiracy.
