World leaders and the world’s richest people have hidden bunkers all over the world they can hide in if things go tits up. It’s a secret club and we ain’t in it.

My smartphone is listening to me and pushes advertisements based on what I say.

That I got my job as charity and therapy. I came back from a combat tour a total wreck. I stayed at my uncle's home for a month and I was already drinking too much and couldn't sleep without nightmares, the kind where you wake the house up from yelling and punching air. My uncle owned 4 restaurants and soon had me working in two of his kitchens 70 hours a week. I threw myself into the work because I had no social life; in six months, I was kitchen manager at his busy 24/7 restaurant. I did an excellent job but unc paid me 50% over the local scale. I think he hired me initially just to keep me out of trouble.

Apple is sabotaging my phone so I buy the new iPhone. The same day the iPhone X dropped my phone started have minor problems.

Well I remember savage beatings at the hands of my parents and siblings but now that I’m an adult everyone denies it they say it never happened and I feel my mind slowly slipping away, I think I’m crazy.

That the NSA has stopped several terror attacks. They told Congress they never have, but I believe it's actually a cover-up. Can you imagine if they admitted they stopped, say, 5 major terror acts in the last 6 months? Woud that make you feel safer? Of course not. It would scare the shit out of us and destroy tourism to major cities. I think Men In Black put it best: "Man, we ain't got no time for this cover-up BULLSHIT! There's an alien battlecruiser about to---" "There's always an alien battlecruiser! Or a Korillian Deathray! Or an intergalactic plague that will wipe out life on this planet. The only way these people get on with their happy little lives is they do not know about it!"

Ancient civilisations were far more advanced than we're led to believe

That my coworker is deliberately trying to drive me insane. I bring lunch with me to work most days, and Every day,without fail and no matter what I have for lunch, she comes into the staff room at lunch and says in her nasaly voice "oohh that smells good! Can I have some??" Same joke, every single workday. So finally, one day, I brought in one of my normal lunch staples, and also brought a little extra for her to try. She came into the staff room and said her normal "oohh that smells good! Can I have some??" to which I pulled out a pyrex dish and offered her some. She seemed to recoil a bit, like she was simultaneously surprised and disgusted. She paused for a minute and said "oh...no thanks I'm heading out for lunch" and quickly walked away Next day at lunch she was right back to "oohh that smells good! Can I have some??"

Donald Trump's behavior makes me believe he's in the early stages of dementia.

So I worked at a certain venue for a while, and the owners liked me, so they kept me around despite me being a slow learner on the job (waitstaff). The venue got brought a few months ago, and the new owners have a totally different vision for it. Some of the old staff stuck around, including myself, but many left. I strongly suspect that I was given a job at the new venue as a request of the old owners. I don't fit the mould of the people they hire at all, and I really got the impression that they weren't sure what to do with me at the start. I may never know, but I'm pretty thankful to the old owners regardless.

I once started a small bar in the city. We were doing really well. Then in a matter of months I got absolutely distroyed by the police. Every day they were there looking for the smallest infrigment of any code. If some one was smoking less then 6 meters from my door I would hear about it. If some one had an open beer within a mile, i would hear about it. We were constantly told to keep the live music down even though there are literally no residential neighbours, NONE. Eventually we closed down. Within a few weeks of this happening I realized that the other people that owned a bar near by had had a serious decrease in sales since we opened and since they had been a long time contributor to the local political scene I think they got the cops to shut us down. No proof. Just a hunch.

I seriously suspect that people get more reckless and angry when the weather is hotter. I just can't find a way to prove it without being Mr Burns and blocking out the sun.

Astronomer here! I very strongly suspect there is life beyond Earth in the universe, and there’s a good chance it exists elsewhere even in our solar system. I can’t prove it however, but would be astounded if it wasn’t the case- life is just a chemical process when you get down to it, so why would that process be so unique as to happen only once when we see all the ones we can measure repeat all over? I also suspect though it will be nowhere near as exciting as most people think it will be, due to Hollywood films. Rather, it will be like finding water on Mars- speculating it’s there, finding the first evidence that it may have existed at one point, and after a ton of intermediate steps concluding there is definitely water on Mars. First we will probably find a chemical signature from an exoplanet that may be from life or have another explanation, then something more solid, and then with all the steps on the way after years a conclusion that life exists elsewhere in the universe. Not very Hollywood, but very in line with how science works!

A man ruined my career to save his own a*s and his boss backed him up by deleting the data. The latter was basically a veiled threat implied to me by the boss in a private 1 on 1. Sort of like a, “sue if you want but the recorded evidence is deleted”. Didn’t think too much about it at the time but it should’ve been a major red flag.
