TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

"Stalin did Roswell"

Anyone come across this theory before?

It basically asserts that Stalin trained a bunch of genetically deformed children to be pilots, stuck them in a flying saucer and had them crash in Roswell, presumably in an attempt to win The World's Most Convoluted And Useless Psy-Op Award. 

This was brought up very briefly in the new book on Area 51 (which is mostly sober and serious, and focussing on secret technology developed by American scientists, as opposed to the technology developed by Reptilian Shapeshifters From the 4th Dimension), and while it sounds fairly retarded, it's no more retarded than some theories about what happened there.

It seems to be a new one, and comes from this book:
http://www.npr.org/2011/05/17/136356848/area-51-uncensored-was-it-ufos-or-the-ussr

Most of the book covers the sane explanations; military experiments, nuclear testing, etc. All using historical records and interviews with people who lived and worked at Area 51.

But then! The author makes contact with an unnamed source who breaks down and starts telling all about the soviet genetic experiments.
(The good bits are under the "Interview Highlights" section of the above article.)

If I were a cynical man, I'd say that she realised a sane book wasn't going to sell, so she tacked on a last chapter of crazy to fill it out.

Edit: apparently I am stupid and did not read your last paragraph. Oops.
Be what you would seem to be - or, if you'd like it put more simply - never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.

Heard this one at work.  One of my guys collects conspiracy theories (he doesn't believe him, he just loves the nuttiness).
