I work with 30-40 blokes, 20's to 60's. There are 3-4 of them who seek out news, but only stories that confirm their biases. They then spew that out to others, where they are regarded as oracle's!!!
It's scary to sit there and see it happening, and if you try and question it, you get shouted down!

I have this mini and I was "today years old" when I realised it was written by Dan Slott!!!
I remember nothing about it at all although, to be fair, at this point in the 90's I was just inhaling massive quantities of comics!!!

Everytime this has happened to me, they've always called JUST as I've finished dinner, and I nearly always have a couple of glasses of wine with my dinner, so have not been able to drive back to work!!!
This is why it's SO important that work don't find out that I don't "actually" drink alcohol!!!
