A quotation from Terry Pratchett
People who would not believe a High Priest if he said the sky was blue, and was able to produce signed affidavits to this effect from his white-haired old mother and three Vestal virgins, would trust just about anything whispered darkly behind their hand by a complete stranger in a pub.
Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author
Discworld, Book 18, Maskerade (1995)More about this quote: wist.info/pratchett-terry/8413…

"Und hast du die #Ausrufezeichen bemerkt? Es sind fünf. Ein sicheres Zeichen dafür, daß jemand die Unterhose auf dem Kopf trägt."
— #TerryPratchett in #Mummenschanz"And all those exclamation marks, you notice? Five? A sure sign of someone who wears his underpants on his head."

Of course that was published in 1995. These days he would probably have added "... or on social media".
