  • The day after President Trump’s 2017 inauguration, Peter McIndoe was on a rooftop in Memphis and heard demonstrators below. So, he decided to join the crowd, carrying a sign with the most ridiculous phrase he could think of: “Birds Aren’t Real.”
    "60 Minutes" is the most successful television broadcast in history. Offering hard-hitting investigative reports, interviews, feature segments and profiles of people in the news, the broadcast began in 1968 and is still a hit, over 50 seasons later, regularly making Nielsen's Top 10.

    This movement is not without its dangers. In a time when so many are completely out of touch with reality, how are they even going to tell it's a joke? When I first saw it, I thought "just what we need: another set of complete lunatics on the scene".

    It's a great episode to show how the human condition has a herd mentality. And how critical it is to teach kids to be logical and understand how mass think is a thing. The most absurd can be made 'real' when it is constantly said - kind of like advertising and police interrogations, IMHO.

      "Trust the science" is a personal favorite. Of course, since whatever the science is, changes week to week, that can lead to all sorts of fun contradictions. Triple masking is something I intend to do until the day I die and I encourage everyone to do the same. Do it for grandma.
