Tinfoil Hats aren't all they claim to be.

Even methods of thwarting the government conspiracies are conspiracies in of themselves.

All right, I’ve been thinking, when life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man whose gonna burn your house down – with the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

I think I'd probably go with "The Centurian".

I just noticed that used 'Aluminium' instead of 'Aluminum.'  So perhaps the whole study is biased against the British government.

I heard using a tinfoil helmet is the WORST thing you can do if you're trying to protect yourself against CIA Mind Control Rays. The tinfoil acts like an antenna and focuses the rays on you thus making you more susceptible.
Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.


Night Owl: Oh, indeed. I quit many a job ...better than being fired. You can keep your card... in fact, you get double points for quitting!

Hello fellow forum friends! I am your compatriot Sowlyn! I am behaving completely normally, and nothing is wrong.  But just in case, why don't you all tell me your secret plans against he government? We can plan to legalize the bomb, or stop killing weeds! Or whatever it was we were planning on doing that would destroy the government!

 Also, make sure to wear your tin foil hats! They are very protective and stylish!
