Person 1, chatting on a cellphone: I can't believe you're so wrong. I'm backed by Snopes, Wikipedia, and a half-dozen journals. You're citing .Net ppages with black backgrounds and like 20 fonts each.
Person 2, using a laptop on a desk: It's sad how you buy into the official story so unquestioningly. Guess some people prefer to stay asleep.
Person 1: Watch closely - I'm about to win this argument.
Person 2, responding electronically: how?
Person 1: By *going down a waterslide*. [[The person is sitting at the very top of a waterslide preparing to descend]]
Person 2: So? what does that prove?
Person 1: Wheeee..
Person 2: You didn't win the argument!
Person 1: ...eeee <<sploosh>>
{{Title text: Really, the comforting side in most conspiracy theory arguments is the one claiming that anyone who's in power has any plan at all.}}
