This thread is an interesting demonstration of the dynamics of pprune. Starts with a dubious story culled from an unreliable news source, warms up with several "let's stonk her house!" posts, gains a few "but what if the press see that?" cautions, and then comes back to Earth as local knowledge indicates that the original story has a high fiction content. Goes to sleep for a while, then recycles with more "lets stonk her house" contributions, perhaps from people who didn't read the middle page? How many more circuits can the thread survive before the neighbours start complaining?
