The latest internet meme that basically proves how stupid the internet is when taken as a whole is the woman in the old Charlie Chaplin film The Circus who the internet seems to think is talking on a cell phone.

The prevailing internet conspiracy theory is that the woman is a time traveler, making a call through time. I would debunk this by saying it would’ve been awfully hard to get reception before cell towers were ever invented, but I figure anybody who believes this woman broke the space-time continuum to visit 1928 isn’t going to be convinced by facts or logic.

So here you go internet, here is the video showing a 1928 mobile phone, we are convinced.
