A celebration of the stupid things folk say or do...
When I was at school this girl I knew kept telling me about these documentaries about aliens. I looked on TV for them but couldn't find them. I asked one day exactly what time they were on and what channel. The next day she said 'did you see it? It was really interesting. This woman's body got taken over'.
I had to tell her the 'documentary' she had found so interesting was The X-Files.
I did once believe a yarn, that two boys at school spun me, about them having found a tunnel, or large drain pipe, that was a portal to some kind of time slip/travel.
I knew it didn't make sense, but I so wanted to believe it cos one of the boys was my country dancing partner, who I had a major crush on.
My saving grace is that I was only 8 or 9 at the time!
