I don't know which amazes me the most.
That Jon Ronsons book was made into a feature film,
or who they managed to cast for it.

Crazy Rulers of the World

5. So the author talks to nutty people

who went nuts while in the military and turns it into a conspiracy theory.

no wonder it makes a good comedy movie.

part one of the "documentary" lol.

2. Now, that's this man's Army.

I've met some of these people. They're not all or entirely nuts. Not all or entirely.

6. Looks like a fun movie. I followed a lot of that stuff in a younger incarnation . . .

No really, when I was younger than I am now and had an entirely different assessment of consensus reality. Never stared at a goat, though.
