I'm learning a lot of new ones today. I must not circulate in the right circles.

I hear my share, most I hear now days involve medical stuff.
When I was in college and frequented the military lounge, well… you really wouldn’t want to know what was speculated and discussed there.

Some of y'all have creative interpretations of when the 21st century started. Regardless, I have to ask for more detail about this one. I've never heard of it, and Google just brings up the CAM billboards.

Hmmm... I see your point. So what does this mean, am I antinomian, bad at math or somehow overlooked Ernie's era qualification in a later post? Time will tell.

The mysterious little markers sometimes said cryptic things like "Detour C". The source I heard spinning theories about them was also a proponent of end times apocalypse theory like "88 reasons". He was generally not taken seriously.

Back when we lived in Texas there were all manner of local conspiracy theories when the utility poles started getting mysterious antennas mounted on them like so:

They turned out to be receivers and retransmitters for the new smart meters that the power company was installing on homes so they could read your meter remotely and not need to send meter readers around to do it manually.

But some people still believed they were something to do a United Nations Agenda 2030 new world order conspiracy theory of some sort.

Some are false, some are true and some are impossible for the average person to determine.
