I thought the woman handing me this was going to ask for help reaching something, but she was handing this out to everyone.

    Reminds me of a line in Futurama:

    Fry: Over there a crazy guy used to hand out a socialist newsletter

    Bender: Was it poorly Xeroxed?

    Fry: Oh, you better believe it!

      I once got a full color, too many graphics, tiny writing to fit it all on one full page flyer about how doritos is made with human stem cells. I’ve got it in a file somewhere because it was so weird I couldn’t throw it out. And yes, some of the graphics were of the flavoring fetuses.

        For many years, I had what was very definitely an expensive printed tract (full color in the early 1990s) called “Is the Russian Bear Ready to Strike?” It predicted that Russia would launch a nuclear strike on the United States based on Biblical prophecy. My favorite part was where they tied it into the Biblical tribes of Gog and Magog by saying that Gorbachev’s name was actually Gogrbachev. Since this was in 1990 or 1991 and the Soviet Union collapsed in 1992 and Gorbachev (Gogrbachev?) died two years ago, I think their prophecy might have been a little off.
