When a Tin Foil Hat isn't Enough

Conspiracy theories are everywhere and most of the time they're amusing.
I am fond of many including, but not restricted to, lizard people , there's no other time than the present, and how the government can read our thoughts. That's why we need to wear tin foil hats.
But what do you do when you know the hat is not enough?
This:


It's cleverly disguised as a blanket for reflecting heat back to the body. We use them camping. They spread out over the sleeping bags for that extra bit of warmth on cold nights.
They sell for cheap at better dollar stores everywhere.





And as for this, well, I can take care of myself. The government will be so distracted trying to plant a thought in my head they won't notice that I have a fork.

So, is anyone else as bereft of blog ideas today as me?

I was so bereft of blogging ideas that I haven't even posted yet today! But you did exceptionally well for someone who couldn't think of anything to post about!

(wanders away, muttering "gotta get me one of those blankets to compliment my hat.... and a fork! Wonder if it was plastic...?")

df Bag Lady, the hat and blanket ensemble should be all you'll need. The fork is optional and only if you truly mean business.

I have very few thoughts so I am safe...

Oh heavens yes, Missicat. Protect the furry ones.

I love the Tin Foil Hat song. Thank you, Hilary.

You should never send me to wikipedia. I went from tin foil hats to the history of hats and found some very interesting things ;) (all of which could be lined with tin foil)

Wonderful post, I shall make sure to keep my blanket next to my hat for when I leave my foil lined apartment.

Leah J. Utas said...

Ah, you've gone that extra step. In your case, Cousin, it is wise. Don't leave home without them. Better yet, Don't Leave Home!

Wonderful entertaining post and thanks to Hiliary for adding the song.

A friend who is an insurance adjuster has had a couple of claims cross her desk where the people wear "tin foil hats".

I'd worry about wearing tinfoil in a thunderstorm and getting zapped.

Leah J. Utas said...

Thank you, Barbara. I suspect insurance adjusters meet some mighty interesting types.

Aleta said...

Lol. I only post about 3 times a week. That's enough blogging for my brain. Cute post!

Leah J. Utas said...

Hello Aleta, nice to see you here.
Thanks.

Bwahahahahaha... love the tin foil blankie! Yup, gotta have that to protect ourselves against the mind probes of our infallible reptiod overlords... (never fails to stagger me that people can believe such things, sigh!).

And giggling madly at "I have a fork." I have a tomato. We're ready! :-D

Thomma Lyn said...

...not reptiod, but "reptoid"... they must be mucking in my mind again.

(KIDDING!!!!!!!)

Leah J. Utas said...

Thomma Lyn, I'm glad you got such a kick out of it.
Armed with your tomatoes as back up we can't be taken!

Nancy said...

LOL! I needed a good chuckle. Thanks.

Posting ideas seem to ebb and flow, for sure.

Nancy, glad you got a kick out of it.
