Addiction denial
An excellent way of ignoring warning signs that you may have a problem, like swigging a half-bottle of Vladivar on the morning bus is putting you in the right frame of mind for work, or blowing £300 on coke in a weekend is letting off steam. Ideal for alcoholics, massive stoners, Zammo.
Flat-Earthers
Feel different from the herd by claiming something so childishly ridiculous that only the blessed and pure of thought could swallow it. Ideal for ageing hippies convinced their cat is the reincarnation of John Bonham.
Anti-vaxxers
