The Dale Gribble Effect

the tendency to be paranoid and obsessed with conspiracy theories, while being oblivious to obvious truths

The Dale Gribble Effect is when someone’s distrust of authority becomes so extreme that it blinds them to the obvious truth — they’re so busy hunting conspiracies that they can’t see the real one happening right in front of them.

Dale

Sometimes, plain is OK. And that is exactly what a Dale likes. Most Dales dont drink alcohol - they prefer an Oreo Krushem and a night with the tactics board.

Most Dale's do business.

"Wow, that guy is quite pale and tall. I just saw him order a coke at the bar - what a Dale"

Person 2: Yes.
Person 1: Good...you are a dale

Dales

Old-timey word for lower garments (pants, trousers, shorts, etc)

I’ve grown so much I hardly even fit into my first pair of dales!
