BRAIN: Tide thefts<\/a>
\nBRAIN: what I love about this is how non-drug trade people have no idea
\nwhat the deal is… we can only speculate!
\nSTEPHEN: I could be mistaken, but I don’t think the site with the Tide
\narticle is being entirely truthful.
\nSTEPHEN: (as in, I think it’s a little more The Onion than The BBC)
\nBRAIN: Thieves rolling Tide detergent out of US stores<\/a>
\nSTEPHEN: !
\nBRAIN: tide thefts – Google Search<\/a>
\nBRAIN: truth is stranger than fiction
\nBRAIN: snopes hasn’t determined<\/a> if it’s a widespread hoax or not
\nSTEPHEN: It’s not unheard of for mainstream media to mistakenly pick up humour\/hoaxes … but it does sound like maybe I was mistaken and, as you say … truth is stranger than fiction,

\nBRAIN: the Orbo guys<\/a> are still around I think
\nSTEPHEN: The bit where it said “… where Tide is known as “liquid gold” among officers.” was where I really started to think “Onion!”
\nBRAIN: I had a similar reaction to the passion gap thing<\/a>
\nCLU: man, this explains those dirty looks I would get when I went to get detergent before I switched to All…. <\/p>\n

ACH: Police say reports of nationwide spike in Tide thefts doesn’t wash<\/a> (Fox News)
\nACH: How many anectdotes does it take to make data?<\/p>\n

PIRATEQUEEN: I found several news articles<\/a> that are months old that support the Tide story
\nMATT: Maybe this is some sort of weird viral ad campaign for Tide.
