Somebody's playing with the cursed Mad Libs booklet again.

Japan gets the Death Note, America gets the Conspiracy Mad Lib...

That seems fair.

My right wing neighbor dropped this conspiracy on me a few months ago, when Kelce and Swift just started dating. His thought was that Kelce had a COVID vaccine commercial, and the government was using him and Swift to reach a broader population of little girls to brainwash them into getting the vaccine for the "fake disease".

I haven't followed up with him on it, but now that the Chiefs are in the Super Bowl, I'm sure he's doubling down on his crazy conspiracy theory. I guess I shouldn't say "his" theory. I didn't realize it at the time, because I don't mainline Fox News and News Max, but I guess this must have been something my neighbor heard on some crazy show at some point.
