l have researched this subject and come to the conclusion that no we didn't.what do others think?.
Nothing screams "living in my mom's basement, using her utilities, eating her food, surfing her Internet, spending a big chunk of my disposable income on comic books and building robots, having no post secondary education, no ambition, no achievement 30ish white boy" than the following screen names:
MrRoboto and Atom Ant.
You clowns remind me of the NerdHerd on Big Bang Theory, minus of course the education, achievement, IQ and the ability to occasionally get laid.

The Greatest Conspiracy Theory of All Time Quick and easy responses to moon landing hoax claims, Jul 10, 2016
"Make a short list of important and spectacular historical events, and it’s clear that the Apollo Moon missions were unique in the way they were documented. There were no cameras at the Battle of Marathon. No NPR reporters at the French Revolution. The Mongol invasions came and went without a single press conference. Nor was their extensive print or web news coverage of the invention of the first stone tool or the first time a human created fire. Even most of World War II took place off camera.
By contrast, every step of NASA’s effort to get to the Moon was meticulously documented from within and without. This thoroughness left behind many thousands of documents, photographs, and audio/video recordings, as well as millions of typed and handwritten words. Artifacts, the tangible hardware, from lunar mission are currently on display in numerous museums around the world. And there is the Moon itself. Astronauts returned with more than 842 pounds (382 kilograms) of Moon rocks that have been shared and studied by scientists in many countries for decades. None of these experts have expressed doubts of the rocks’ origin.
Maybe NASA could have produced convincing video on a terrestrial sound stage that was good enough to fool non-experts. But why do it so many times? There were nine missions to the Moon, six of which landed. The Apollo 16 and 17 crews each spent three days there. Why? If this was all a daring PR stunt, why increase the risk of discovery with multiple missions? Why make it necessary for so many astronauts and ground personnel to lie and maintain the cover up? If this were a hoax, doesn’t it seem more likely that NASA would have faked one landing, had a big parade, and then promptly shut down the operation?"

CTs are trolls of the worst kind. If Simon won't ban them we should all do what we do with trolls: Ignore them.
"People who believe in conspiracy theories can feel “special,” in a positive sense, because they may feel that they are more informed than others about important social and political events. […]
Our findings can also be connected to recent research demonstrating that individual narcissism, or a grandiose idea of the self, is positively related to belief in conspiracy theories. Interestingly, Cichocka et al. (2016) found that paranoid thought mediates the relationship between individual narcissism and conspiracy belief.
It has been noted that individuals who endorse conspiracy theories are likely to be higher in powerlessness, social isolation and anomia, which is broadly defined as a subjective disengagement from social norms.
Individuals who feel alienated may consequently reject conventional explanations of events, as they reject the legitimacy of the source of these explanations. Due to these individuals feeling alienated from their peers, they may also turn to conspiracist groups for a sense of belonging and community, or to marginalised subcultures in which conspiracy theories are potentially more rife.
People who feel powerless may also endorse conspiracy theories as they also help the individual avoid blame for their predicament. In this sense, conspiracy theories give a sense of meaning, security and control over an unpredictable and dangerous world. Finally, and most simply, conspiracy beliefs — which imply a level of Machiavellianism and power enacted by those without fixed morality — are most likely to resonate with people who feel powerless and believe that society lacks norms.
The Internet has amplified the abilities of these like-minded people to come together to share and expand on their conspiracy theories. It took only hours after the Las Vegas massacre for a conspiracy Facebook group to appear with more than 5,000 members.
You can’t really argue with people who believe in conspiracy theories, because their beliefs aren’t rational. Instead, they are often fear- or paranoia-based beliefs that, when confronted with contrarian factual evidence, will dismiss both the evidence and the messenger who brings it.2 That’s because conspiracy theories are driven by the people who believe and spread them and their own psychological makeup — not on the factual support or logical reasoning of the theory itself."
its great to see new subject matter being injected into the room of late and would be good to see others contribute by opening new threads on their favorite topics.heres a few examples.9/11.
ufo's.
atom bombs are they real?
You CTs flatter yourselves. The world wide web does not really give you an equal voice in matters of science and where real evidence and facts from actual experts is required. None of you have any actual expertise, education and knowledge about any of these subjects, and the only fake news you have comes from CT sources. None of you can site actual empirical or valid sources.
You are all losers and an infection that needs to be eradicated.

Happy New Year CTs. See you in about 6 months.
Hey CG,
I believe Cofty meant this for you. Since it's the holiday season and I'm trying to be generous, I didn't want you to miss it. I'm just that kinda guy. (nice to know I'm your viagra - have I kept you 'up' all night, sweetie?). Flattered I am.
"Somebody who asserts things about reality but who has never bothered to acquaint themself with the relevant evidence - and who refuses to do so - is lazy and arrogant. That isn't an insult it's just a fact."
Happy New Year, ya adorable little CT.
Hey fummdukk,
I'm the one who told you colleges were more liberal. Why you add the term 'insanely' liberal shows you are unhinged. You know NO college profs, you have never attended college, and you can't go on any of the college campuses in your tri-state area because of the restraining orders the coeds took out against you.
But it's always nice to get validation that I have gotten under the skin of people like you and that I can control your emotions and reactions.
Good puppy. Goooooooood puppy.
Happy New Year Captaingrl.
a year ago i had a rough time and posted this .
it was a controversial topic, some people got offended by my overly boastful tone, others offered help.
i appreciate any kind of opinion and i try to correct the flaws in my personality.
@Wake Me,
You mean you have wasted, oh, about 5 minutes of my life and shared, oh, about 5 posts, and still no three way? Cruel you are. Just cruel. I don't know how I can go on. I will just have to keep telling myself that it's a target rich environment I suppose, to get over the rejection
Happy New Year's Eve!.
Captain Gurl,
As expected, I post empirical data from reputable sources that was obtained from dozens/hundreds of colleges and universities and you post a viral rant from a R wing nut job. Like all R Wing CT NutQuackeries your kryptonite is evidence of the empirical variety. As for bona fides, as I've stated many times on this site: if Simon wants to serve as the validator, I will be happy to email to his private email account any documentation you and he requires, including diplomas, names and contact information for the various colleges and universities where I attended or taught to verify. Education is the easiest thing to validate, but you wouldn't know that since you've never been on a college campus other than to harass the coeds.
OTOH, all you have to do to validate that you are a barely educated, dim-witted drone for the Far Right CT NutJob Climate Change Denying Media you adore……. is to keep posting.
Good puppy.

Good morning Wake Me and Happy Almost New Year!!
I plead guilty as charged. However, you knew full well that the bait you through out in your post to Scratchme was designed to reel in guys like me (playing coy and innocent is unattractive). Or apparently on this site, guy like me. For most of my single life I have lived a bachelor's life to the full, without regrets and at no time taking advantage of XXers or manipulating them in any manner. Most of my friends are married women, and I've managed to maintain close relationships with them for 10 - 20 years because I treat them with respect. They are also gorgeous women. Their husbands trust me because I've earned it.
For the other half of my single life I have been in relationships. I am very good at commitment, and no one has ever broken up with me because I don't give them reasons to. Having said that, I love girl on girl, and it is almost a pre-requisite for a relationship. It will be moving forward.
So yes, I will take the girl on girl bait every time because I know how effing amazing it is as a lifestyle. But if we met in person, unless you looked like the photograph you posted or close to it, I wouldn't likely bother flirting because I wouldn't want to have to call - or nudge - you in the morning. I'm shallow like that.
But this is the world wide web, baby, and you flirt and I flirt and it's amazing.
