They say it’s always best to trust your gut. But what if it tells you there’s something off with a particular person, place, situation, you name it? Today, we are diving into some hard-to-believe scenarios shared by people with very strong suspicions. The only catch is that they have zero proof of the conspiracies.
“What do you strongly suspect but have no proof of?” asked u/757jsmith on the r/AskReddit subreddit and the answers started rolling in.
Let’s scroll through the most interesting ones below, and who knows… sometimes life is stranger than fiction!

Our ancient (human) history is far more vast and impressive than we can even begin to imagine.
Suspect my Physically and mentally abusive ex husband was planning on offing me during our separation/divorce. He got a $75,000 life insurance policy on me during our separation. Found out 2 years after our divorce when he had overpaid the policy and the insurance sent me a refund check. Mistake on their part.
During our separation, he had invited me to join his “family” vacation at Grand Canyon, I said no. He invited me to the mountains that same summer to try to be a family again, I said no. Then he invited me to Mexico for “reconciliation, again no. ( I said no because the gut feelings I had and my mom told me not to) She had 3 dreams in a row that my soon to be ex husband would tell her I was dead.
I have no proof, just the insurance policy and my mom’s dreams. 2 years after divorce, he canceled policy. I didn’t know you could get insurance on someone without them knowing

That the universe is teeming with life. Earth just can't be that special.
Ooor, there have been lots of planets like the earth before, maybe with higher developed civilisations like us, but their galaxy exploded in a supernova billions of years ago like it will happen to our galaxy. Maybe some of the black holes only exist because some alien experiment went horribly wrong. The universe is so big and so old and so crazy-for me, everything is possible..
That the developed world would function just fine if people were paid the same salaries, but worked only 3 days a week instead of 5. I strongly suspect the elite and governments want us working as much as possible so we don't have enough free time to cause unrest and improve society in a way that would negatively affect them. After all, since machines and factories have automated most forms of manufacturing, so why are we working as many (or more) hours as people from 150 years ago?
For those saying it's unrealistic, this sort of mass shift; please let me draw your attention to history. There were people who were certain the economy couldn't stand paying former slaves, allowing women into the work force, cutting back from 80 hour work weeks to 40 hour work weeks, not allowing children to work, and I'm sure there's more. The proposed idea would be a major shift but it's not unrealistic or outright impossible. I'd love to hear some economists debate the feasibility.

There’s no sales on Black Friday. It’s just hyped up and people don’t do the research. Something could have been on “sale” earlier in the year for the same price, but people flock to the stores on Black Friday and buy it immediately because in their mind... it’s the cheapest it has ever been.

That a lot of businesses in my hometown are just money laundering operations. 25 nail salons in a town of 70,000? 3000 square foot DVD rental shop in the best block of downtown where commercial rents are very high?

Yes! I always think this, like how can they make a profit, and afford to pay all of their overheads?
That my oldest brother is actually my bio father.
It just makes no sense to me otherwise. I have a butt chin and no one else in my family does. This older brother was(is?) an alcoholic, drug addict, and just a big mess all around. He brought different women to my parent's house every day and we would hear them f**k. It makes no sense to me that he came out of that with zero children. Makes less sense since he's ~20 years older than me, which means my parents would have had me at a dangerously (for my mom) old age. I know it's not impossible, but it just makes a lot more sense this way. Plus my parents always covered up for his wrongdoings so it honestly wouldn't surprise me.
I once asked my mom and she got visibility upset. Didn't even ask her outright, I just said I had a dream that they told me my brother was really my father. She got super mad and refused to even discuss or acknowledge my dream. Weird as hell.
I would still consider my mom, my mom. Wouldn't consider my brother my dad if he were because he's an ass. It's just something I think is highly probable.

Not that paranoid. It's called "insider knowledge" and rich people hold often the position where they are informed about plans that could affect their properties. So it could be that soon you'll find that some very polluting industry is building a new plant right across the street because it suddenly has been designated as "industrial area".

I believe that many animal rescues self-perpetuate their own problem. Some rescues have VERY picky requirements - like salary minimums, yard size minimums, prior experience, age minimums, required seminars, required volunteer work, etc. Meanwhile you can just go to a breeder or a store, and be able to get a pet that day.
I understand wanting to make sure the animals go to a home equipped to care for the animal, but if it's so hard to get a rescuee pet that it drives people to stores, then those shelters will only ever become more crowded. A parrot rescue near me requires 6 months of volunteering for 3 hours every week before you can adopt... and there's a store nearby that just breeds and sells parrots. Which one would most people pick?
I couldn’t agree more with this! Plenty of people would love to adopt a cat or dog but live in a flat/apartment and are discounted immediately. I’ve never understood why having access to a garden is deemed more important than a loving home with people who care. Here in the UK many people would love to take on a rescue pet but are stumped at this first hurdle. It would be ok for me to have a baby in that environment but not a dog/cat?!? How does that make sense to anyone?
Same for the adoption process. There are so many hurdles to they system that people are put off of going through it, but nowhere near as many restrictions for having a child through pregnancy.
Load More Replies...It’s a shame. There’s an animal rescue here that says up front about their high standards - “we do not allow renters to adopt animals”. Most places require evidence of landlord’s consent, but this rescue just bans people who rent their homes entirely. Totally unfair and illogical.
That's completely stupid!!! You can be a landlord and be abusive and a renter and be a loving person!! There is no logic in that!!! In my country most people are renters!! Noone would be able to adopt!
Load More Replies...Although it makes sense to set some requirements, it is ridiculous to deprive an animal of a loving home because the owner doesn't live in a mansion with a 600 acre yard. That said, you don't want someone living on a tiny flat and working 10 hours a day to get a greyhound or a terrier.
I agree with the working hours, but greyhounds are one of the breeds best suited to living in a flat or apartment because once they've had their walk and their 'zoomies' they are total couch potatoes.
Load More Replies...I was looking on Petfinder just this week and saw a cat that I wanted to read more about. The shelter wanted to know what type of water I would use. WHAT TYPE OF WATER? They also had other Dbag questions, but this was the most insane. Almost emailed them to tell them how ridiculous they were with their questions in a full blown rant.
Yes we had tried to adopt a pup from petfinder as well. We lived in an apartment at the time with a german shepherd and mal. There was a 5 acre park in the middle of the complex and my husband and I both work from home and run. We've trained our shepherd and mal to heel and run with us, plus the park and throwing balls, playing with other dog etc. Tons of play and exercise! They said no strictly based on the apartment and the dog needing a back yard. What?? Even when we had a back yard the dogs didn't stay out there, they're in the house with us.
Load More Replies...Sometimes it’s not the animals’ actual requirements, it’s more the paranoia of the people running the shelters, and very often they’re totally wrong. Many dogs and cats that the shelter employees deemed difficult and needing very specific treatment, food, and living conditions (like a large yard and no other animals or no kids), turn out to not be difficult at all, are quite content with any food and living conditions, get along great with children and other animals, are happy with daily walks and don’t need a yard—-as long as they feel loved, safe, and secure with the people who adopted them. The rental thing is down to landlords who have been burned by tenant with animals who left their units trashed (chewed woodwork, massive urine stains deep in the carpet, fleas, etc), and just don’t want to take the chance of that happening again. It’s understandable, but sad that responsible pet parents can’t find a place to rent.
The rental thing wasn't a requirement of landlords (though that may also be true), it was mentioned because it was a requirement of shelters - that you can't adopt one of their rescues if you rent your apartment.
Load More Replies...I agree! I’ve been trying to adopt for 2 months! And they want my landlords phone number, 3 non family references and they want to do a home check. Which I can over look but then they are charging $500 average for the dogs that have been there for a long time. They call it “donation”. It’s beyond ridiculous.
The fee does seem pretty high, but if they are a reputable association then they should give the dog to you fully vaccinated, with all tests done, a microchip installed and identification. And all that is expensive, so they have to cover these fees. Also the food it takes to feed them while they were there, maybe different treatments. Maybe paying a foster was involved, or transport from another place... Saving animals is really expensive.
Load More Replies...This is exactly what happened to us. Tried for literally years to get a rescue dog for our 4 acres of land. Our only ask was that the dog was big because we live way out in the country. Huge yard, nice house and a family of three. I am self employed and work from home so the dog wouldn't ever be alone, we keep a few chickens for the dog to look after and I wanted my kid to grow up with a pet before she went to school. After 8 years of rejections because we "don't have a fenced yard" my kid turned 11 I finally broke down and bought a dog. Took me three weeks to find an adequate puppy (who we love and is now 2years old) and it still cost the same as it would've to go through a rescue.
Just need to enact a few laws. Limit the number of licensed breeders allowed for breeds of cats/dogs and charge them a fortune to be licensed. Use that money to pay more animal control officers who can investigate unlicensed animal breeding and exact massive fines on anyone doing so and confiscate all animals involved and get them neutered and rescued. Make it illegal to sell any animal that is not neutered. That would stop people buying animals just because they're cute babies, and stop people trying to run baby animal mills by selling off puppies/kittens after a few weeks and then starting the process again. Animals would basically have to be 4 - 6 months and neutered before they could be sold.
Absolutely not!!! My daughter works at a sanctuary rescue and a majority of the animals have actually been dumped by breeders! A female dog used for breeding is usually done by the age of 4 and her body is so used up that she's considered geriatric. Many have major neurological problems because breeders very rarely do genetic testing. The reason rescues have such strict requirements is 1. The high raye of returns when people are incapable of taking care of the animals 2. Making sure people understand the cost of owning an animal (food, vaccinations, emergency vet bills, etc) 3. Making sure that the animal is comfortable; many come from a traumatic background and require a lot of love, patience and training. It is truly heartbreaking to see the condition these animals are in when they are rescued and everything is done for their benefit, not your convenience
Yep. But f**k the animal rescuers for wanting the animal to actually be looked after and not neglected and abused, right?
Load More Replies...Being a kennel volunteer there is a reason that people are vetted so thoroughly before an adoption of an animal. I have seen what happens when someone on the spur-of-the-moment decides to an adopt a dog and then 2 days later decides it's not for them. We have had dogs that have been abused malnourished And so far gone that they had to be ethanized. The shelter I work for is no kill so the dogs here are free to stay until they find there forever home. There are a lot of bad people in this world and it takes very strmake sure they're not the ones that get the animals.
Exactly. But people with ZERO experience of animal rescue just LOVE to tell the rescuers how evil and cruel they are for expecting you to meet the bare minimum of care requirements to not neglect and abuse the animal that was just rescued from neglect and abuse. God these posts make me so angry. I'd love to show all the people here complaining about how evil shelters are, some of the abusive and downright sociopathic adoption enquiries I've gotten that considered my requirements (like access to f*****g water, like NOT SETTING THE ANIMAL ON FIRE) so f*****g unreasonable.
Load More Replies...I feel the same way about human adoption after I meet a lady in Portugal that took her 7 years to be able to adopt. So much burocracia.
Sometimes yes. I have had three cats from rescues and I am grateful. The rescues asked a lot of questions and were picky with me, but I understood their perspective on adopting. I emailed one rescue and had the kitten the next day. I can only speak to my experience.
Actually we literally had that happen. Got a cat from a breeder first, no issues whatsoever. Adopted a second from a shelter and we had an application process, phone interview, etc. Owning the first cat with vet records definitely made it easier (as did having a personal connection with the shelter). But like, c'mon. Animals get euthanized over a complex application process
I adopted a German Shepherd from a rescue once. We did have to fill out an application, and that was it. I did offer to pick her up, but she said no, I will bring her to you. She did want to make sure that we had a big yard for her to run and play. I don't mind that. I have never heard of any of those other things.
I understand this but at the same time rescue animals can come with emotional problems and/or physical ailments. Rescues do not want animals returned (happens a lot) because that causes more trauma for the animal. So they try to make sure you are prepared for the commitment and that the animal has what it needs to thrive in your care. Big yard for active dog. Patient handler for animals that have suffered abuse. Etc. we were lucky and got a great dog. He is 8-9 years old, so pretty calm but he has a sensitive stomach so some homemade foods and plenty of walks. He sheds continuously. I’ve seen people return dogs who got sick or the dog was not paired with the right family situation.
I didn't even knew this was a thing. I send a lot of my rescue cats abroad to western Europe via different associations and shelters. I knew that they have higher standards, but never thought they are this high, and I find this incredibly stupid. I get it that we have to vet the persons adopting, but certainly they shouldn't give their new born to you to be able to do so.
I remember trying to get a dog from a local rescue. I could produce a human baby with less side eye.
WTF is wrong with adopting shelter dogs near you? They need help, too.
We adopted one. Immediately decided we wanted another. They wouldn't let us. We had to wait a few months. But oddly, we we wanted to adopt even more, two at a time wasn't an issue..
In my town there is a "Lady" who has appropriated the Humane Society of our town. She "Manages" several feral cat colonies by trapping and selling the kitens.
I agree. My bf and I were at a Petsmart. Saw a cat we wanted to adopt. I was 65, he was 74. They refused us saying we were too old to adopt since the cat would outlive us.
Absolutely ridiculous at the moment. "Rescues" are just hoarders in disguise. My grandchildren will never know the joy of having a pet dog. they will be priced out of the general public upper limit, and will be so inbred that they will be full of cancer and other physical ailments. Small dogs (cross breeds) are priced around $6000 now. (au)
This must be only outside of the US. There was no issue about me living in a flat or apartment. This is nonsense.
I agree. We once tried to adopt from a lab rescue in our town but we were turned down because we were away from home more than 8 hours a day, and we didn’t have a fenced in yard, even though it would have been an indoor dog.
I used to run a guinea pig shelter. I had extremely reasonable requirements, like an adequate cage size (because people love putting them in shoeboxes), access to appropriate food (because people love giving them bird seed), appropriate temperature control (because people love leaving them in the sun and boiling them to death), and so on. It was still never good enough for people. As soon as you say something so totally outrageous as "You can't burn this animal to death", people lose their f*****g minds. The worst part of running a shelter is not even dealing with the animal abusers - it's dealing with the potential adopters and being abused and threatened over your "unreasonable" requirements to actually look after the animal you spent six months and ten thousand dollars rehabilitating after it was abused from the very things you claim you should be allowed to repeat. If you're confused by a requirement, ask about it, instead of abusing and bashing the shelter workers. It's there for a reason.
Agreed. I've had a dog since I was a kid. A few year ago we decided to adopt another rescue after we grieved our prior rescue for about a year. We were only allowed to foster the dog after paying a $200 fee, filling out about 10 pages of paperwork and agreeing to return once a month for 3 months for wellness checkups. After that, then the dog was officially ours. I love my dog, don't get me wrong. He gives me kisses and keeps my feet war at night, but he's a dog.
Educating a potential parrot parent is a great idea. Long-lived, intelligent birds do NOT thrive in a cage. They're highly social and require the kind of interaction you'd give a child. Exotic bird rescues are full of neurotic birds who plucked themselves bare in frustration.
Is this a joke? Where do you think the parrot rescue rescue parrots from?
The state of CA requires all pet stores to sell only rescues. They are not allowed to obtain and sell from breeders.
True, but it's not really their fault. Pet shops should just be banned to begin with, especially those who sell exotic animals. Living beings are not merchandise. Just taking care of all the pets who are already in rescues should keep real animal lovers happy and busy for years to come. People who go buy pets on a whim and will eventually abandon them weeks later are not to be satisfied.
I just started working with a rescue, and while I do agree that they are too picky, they also get applicants that deserve to be denied. Most recent application was one person who has had 5 puppies/kittens over the past few years and has given them all away after having them a few years. But I also feel like we could help so many more pets from kill shelters if we just weren't so picky on most applicants.
I'm currently fostering 7 kittens and it's OMG AMAZING but I'm also pretty sure my request to foster would have been denied if I wasn't so persistent and talked with a different lady.

I'm sure there are some practices that seem (or are) a bit excessive, but it's not so much about making it harder for decent people to adopt, it's about stopping monsters from adopting. It wouldn't make much sense to go through the painstaking process of rescuing animals and paying for expensive care, etc. if they just turned around and gave an animal to some monster who just wants them to use as bait in dog fights or sell them to research labs. That's the reason they make it hard.
Yeah but i would adopt because the stores most likely use something like a puppy mill
i think there may be some validity to this. i also think that some of the rescues are a way for the foster agency/rescue site to make money for supplemented income. i get that there needs to be a fee to pay for a rescue because that fee is usually what is going to help feed and care for the other animals still at the site. but, many rescues make deals with vets for vaccinations and/or spays at discounted or donated costs and the money then remains with the foster. why do i think this? because when i was looking to adopt there were some rescues that charged up to $450. they said to cover vaccinations and spay but i later found out that spay was free.
I completely agree. I wanted to adopt two rabbits but they not only wanted to do a house inspection, but to meet my landlord who lives in a different state. Uhhh. No. So a friend was moving and gave me his rabbit. And he's the most spoiled thing there is.
In the city where I live our shelter is ran by a bunch of snotty people who look down on everyone around them. We have a large backyard with a large wooden 6 ft privacy fence. I won't go to this facility to look for a buddy to adopt because of the way that they make you feel when you walk in the door. My best friend died a year ago in November and I drove to the next town over to find a little guy to help me get through her loss. That shelter was incredible! I had paperwork filled out, adoption fee paid and we were headed home within a 1/2 an hour. I love this little guy so much.
White people problems - When I was little we had a brown and white boxer name "Duke". Neighbor: I like your dog. Where did you get him? Me: You know that liquor store around the corner from the park? Yeah, well he was hanging out there for a few days so I brought him home. Lesson: If you buy a dog, they act entitled, if you find a dog (literally rescue a dog from the streets) they will be grateful.
100% Years ago I wanted a Golden Retriever. Found a place that adopts the puppies out. But, they have to come out to your place a pre-approve the house, yard, etc. Then they come monthly for 6 months to do checks, then they come 3 times a year for 2 yrs. I was like, no thanks. I'm getting a dog, not a human child. I went to a breeder and bought a puppy.
I would love to adopt a dog, but the fees at the places near me start a at $500. I know it’s a way to fund the rescue and make sure pets go to people that can afford to take them, but it’s still crazy too me. Our last dog was returned to the pound so he only cost $23.
Wait until you find out how much veterinary care costs, mate. Animals are expensive. Don't get them if you want something cheap and negligible.
Load More Replies...I didn't have this specific issue when I adopted my dog from a rescue nearby, I had her day of, but some of the older volunteers there were really harsh on the fact that my husband and I worked full time. They kept asking are you sure you have time for her, are you positive? Well 2+ years later she is fully house trained and crate trained and gets to go to doggy camp and rarely if ever actually has to be in her crate. It was just very pushy.
Far too many charities, but especially animal charities, get wills written in their favour, play on "oh the poor fluffies" to get donations, etc, but those donations which "go to the running of the charity" means management get a cushy wage for doing not much of anything while volunteers do all the work and accost people in the street.
Just another self-imposed authority that wants access to your home and your life. Then they make you feel obligated to jump through a bunch of hoops to get some critter that may not even work out for you. I found a breeder for my dog.

I believe my grand mother was a serial killer. She was married 7 times; each ending in a sudden death. She died in the 1980’s but everything is still suspicious and no one seems to know anything.

I also found evidence of her having been in prison before coming to the US.

That every single person who has submitted their DNA to their ancestor sites has officially damned themselves. That’s like giving away all the passwords to your devices. Our DNA is our coding, it is what builds us. If someone for some reason wanted that information for any reason that would likely ignore the integrity of bioethics, they could get to it. Rich person will die within 2 days without a kidney transplant? They could easily pay someone to check the database to find an individual who could potentially be the closest match. That person would have also submitted where they live. It would be pretty convenient for that person to randomly get terribly injured and be taken to the hospital where the rich person happens to be at. I know it sounds crazy, and there are 100 less crazy things people can do with out data. But with body autonomy rights starting to be taken away by some states, it’s essentially the government saying they own the rights to your body, it’s just not that obvious...for now. Y’all wait.

I also have one. That the aliens or Greys of popular culture and UFOs are not aliens but humans from the future who have developed time travel technology and have physical adaptations to better live on their adopted planet Mars. It sounds far fetched but this is technically more feasible than traveling the vast reaches of space from another planet to earth.

My one is that the antivax movement was started to remove woman’s rights and get them out of the workforce back to being baby factories. If we loose herd immunity that the vaccines have given us childhood diseases that have almost been eradicated will come back with a vengeance. If a young couple wanted just two kids they would need to have 5 just to have two live to adulthood. That would mean the woman would be perceptually pregnant during her early adulthood during a time she would have been carving out her career
I have one! I think Kraft and Nabisco are in cahoots. If you fold a slice of Kraft's American cheese (any brand really) in fourths, each quarter slice fits perfectly on a saltine.
And get this! A whole slice fits perfectly on a slice of..bread!

Load More Replies...Every accusation you hear made by a member of the US Republican Party is an admission of guilt. GOP = Gaslight, Obstruct, Project
Can you blame them? They are old and afraid. Scared that the best is behind them and the future is too scary (even the 30yo ones). "No! No! No! Keep it the way it was and make other people pay for it" is the GOP battle whine.

Makes 100% sense to me.
Oh, forgot to add that "global warming" is 100% real and it's just the giant beings immune system trying to kill us off. Think about it, when you're sick your bodies immune system causes you to have a fever to kill off the infection.

There is a *very* broad streak of barely concealed antisemitism running through the English aristocracy. All the "old money" families with the titles, and the stately homes, whose ancestors at the time of the Crusades were in debt to their eyeballs to Jewish moneylenders.
Most of these Are just conspiracy theories, but #2 (about a soon-to-be ex plotting to kill his wife) Is way too real... This was the only one that send chills to my spine...
Superb thread providing much food for thought as well as some amusement. Thank you Bored Panda :)
I also have one. That the aliens or Greys of popular culture and UFOs are not aliens but humans from the future who have developed time travel technology and have physical adaptations to better live on their adopted planet Mars. It sounds far fetched but this is technically more feasible than traveling the vast reaches of space from another planet to earth. And the reason they are mostly interested and mainly seen in military bases and nuclear weapon sites is because they are trying to prevent our own self destruction.
