So today was no different than any other day. By that I mean I was asked if I would be getting a smart watch, cause I like watches and that's a watch. Another one that comes up fairly regularly - "I have a nice watch but I don't wear it much, it's a Fossil and it was like $200 I should show it to you sometime." While wearing a Cal. 1887 Carrera a coworker said "You like watches huh, check this out." I just looked over at his watch and said "yeah, that's pretty nice" it wasn't though, it was some 50+mm Nixon in gold and it was not nice. The assumption being that 55mm Nixon > 41mm Carrera I'm starting to get the feeling that people really don't understand my interest in watches. Does anyone else get questions like this? Do people expect you guys to rush out and drop your cash on an iWatch? Do they show you their 55mm monstrosity of a centre running seconds chronograph wondering why someone who likes watches is wearing such a small watch? I mean can't you afford a big watch?2 points

What disappoints me the most is not the wonderful theories you espouse but rather finding out you are in the UK, so presumably British. I have been chuckling away assuming you are one of those crazy American we all know and love - but it is possible you are English. So I feel the need to speak up. You're letting the side down old chap, so let's have no more of this nonsense or I'll have to call those nice young men in their clean white coats to take you back to your nice comfortable room. All agreed? Excellent. If you are a good boy we can have some tea and tiffin on the way home.2 points

Once upon a time, earlier this year, I fell victim to the alluring concept of the replica watch. By simply typing the words "replica watch" on google, many sites came up, but none of the reputable ones you will find in this forum. Instead, you will be plagued by the biggest ripoff scam websites on the internet. I have discovered the largest watch ripoff umbrella on the internet. The group of internet based companies have the same swiss upgrade gimmick and are based primarily out of New York. If you buy from one of the following sites, you WILL be ripped off!! I almost fell victim to one of these rip off sites and thank god I found a reputable rep forum that saved me. Here is what I know: - The dealer will convince you to do C.O.D or Wire Transfer. - If you are out of the USA, they will say that due to security and fraud that credit card orders will not be accepted. They will convince you to do a money wire since that is the next safest method since you will have their business bank account information. Little do you know that the info provided is not actually a bank account!! It is a routing number where your funds are redirected several times until it ends up in a pre-paid debit/credit card company. The money enters the fraudster's prepaid debit/credit card where the funds are withdrawn immediately. These pre-paid accounts are set up all over the United States and are extremely hard to track. There are many aliases and phone numbers that these scammers use. They don't really have a base of operations and work off pre-paid cell phone numbers. They have set up a fake rep review site called http://www.fakereviews.com and http://www.replicainspector.com. The pictures used on these sites are of actual gen watches!! Not the watch(es) you may or may not receive. How do I know so much? I almost fell victim and actually wired funds to bluefakes. Luckily I have very powerful friends in the banking industry. With thorough investigation and persistance, I tracked to where the funds ended up. I not only got my money back, but ended up freezing several of their accounts and money returned back to other victims. Here is the list of the companies: GLOBAL REPLICA Additional Business Names: A Fine Luxury Time AFineLuxuryTime.com Allfakes Betterswiss BlueFakes Fullswiss Go Replicas Italian Fakes Jewelers Laststopwatch Limited Watch My Swiss Replica MySwissReplica.com New Replica Newwatch4u Nextswiss Nyswiss OnTimeFakes Precise Knock Offs Ravereplicas Redhotwatch Replicaceo Reproduccion Global Showtimereplicawatches Sizzlefakes SwissFreeze Zenithmotor I am really sorry that it took so long to compile this. I read about a victim on repgeek and got really angry. I really wanted to put the past behind me but something has to be done. I hope I am not too late to try and help others. These are only the companies that I know of under the same group. There potentially can be more. I have put together this information in hope that other people do not fall victim to these petty thugs. Jawo1 point

Neo, You've become comically unoriginal. You realize of course governments/monarchs/media have seeked to control the masses for ages. You think this is new? You provided clips from youtube and suggest this is something ever so enlightening? Ok. Let's play. WTC 7 was a controlled explosion. Maybe it was. Maybe it wasn't. Let say it was. Don't you think that your observations were not anticipated?? Years of planning and thoughts like yours (actually not your thoughts as you are a simple follower) was not forseen? Are you shitting me?? What if Dr. Wood was a fabrication as a diversion? Have you thought of that you dumb blinded twit? If WTC was planned, could Wood et al also not be planned? You are the most brainwashed of all. Seriously. It's ok to question. But you are completely lost. Enjoy your internet surfing in your basement flat as you design a barter-like utopian society. Again, your predictability is laffable.1 point

Once again, this is incorrect. Again, I'm a particle physicist, this is what I literally spent years of my life studying. Passing through the Van Allen belts is a serious but entirely solvable issue. The Van Allen belt's radiation is massive, so it's a type that's easily shielded against. The Apollo missions traveled through the thinnest part (they span roughly 20 degrees north and south of the equator) and traversed quickly. The astronauts received a very small dose of radiation -- far less than what a Space Shuttle or ISS crew receives, or what the Gemini crews received. Just like the 9/11 idiocy, every stupid question you'll spout off about regarding the moon landing has a simple answer.1 point
