Unfortunately, some people HAVE no common sense, even in the fridge. They will believe ANYTHING, just so there is no evidence for it. The best way to combat it is to show even a shred of evidence – they will then instantly change their beliefs against it.
I have an acquaintance who fell for the Denver Airport Conspiracy – lock, stock, and barrel. I asked him why anyone would come up with a plan (which must remain top-secret) to kill 6 billion people (google New World Order), and then explain the plan to artists so they can paint murals all over the airport illustrating it? It just made him believe it more deeply.

Don’t start using that now, RJ! Wrong time in history, all around!

Hammy has the right idea. Go straight for the nutella. I don’t know about adding cocktail onions to it, though.

How did Nutella® even make it to the fridge with R.J. around?

Common sense tells us the Earth is flat. Science tells us it is a sphere.

Common sense… isn’t

Reality is perception and we all precieve it differently based on our upbringing and geographical location.

Common Sense – that’s an oxymoron.

I don’t even want to know what his critical thinking looks like.
