   I’ll say you’re not like her!
   This one article contained more wit than her entire website.

   Good idea, Doc. You’ll never get anywhere in the conspiracy world if you don’t know how to misspell words, including your own name.

   Was this to be an empire of conspiracy hypothesis debunking, promoting, or spoofing?

   As much fun as the last would be (The Onion for The Paranoid … and Those Who Love Them), it would run afoul of JPotter’s Poe Corollary: It is impossible to parody conspiracy nonsense w/o accidentally contributing to conspiracy nonsense. Conspiracy nuts have no ability to detect when they’re being made fun off!

   Very True! Good corollary!

   Case in point: the Onion’s April Fools Joke about Obama the foreign student at Occidental.
