30 years ago, it was barely mentioned - now everyone is a suspect in a 'Peds-under-the beds' frenzy. My friend the Retard accuses complete strangers of being Peds. Will it all die out and people move on to the next craze, like mobile phones will fade away?
Like the old witchcraft trials, it doesn't matter whether it is true or not, you're still dead with people like my friend the Retard - he spreads that rumour and others pick it up as fact.
