https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosenhan_experiment
or: "On Being Sane in Insane Places" (1973)

9 pseudo-patients feigned auditory hallucinations to enter a range of psychiatric hospitals then acted normally afterwards. Apart from taking lots of notes and flushing their anti-psychotic meds down the toilet (this went unreported). Their stays ranged from 7 to 52 days (average 19), with all but one discharged with a diagnosis of schizophrenia "in remission".

>Despite constantly and openly taking extensive notes on the behavior of the staff and other patients, none of the pseudopatients were identified as impostors by the hospital staff, although many of the other psychiatric patients seemed to be able to correctly identify them as impostors. In the first three hospitalizations, 35 of the total of 118 patients expressed a suspicion that the pseudopatients were sane, with some suggesting that the patients were researchers or journalists investigating the hospital.
Takes one to know n'one.

>[In another experiment] Rosenhan used a well-known research and teaching hospital, whose staff had heard of the results of the initial study but claimed that similar errors could not be made at their institution. Rosenhan arranged with them that during a three-month period, one or more pseudopatients would attempt to gain admission and the staff would rate every incoming patient as to the likelihood they were an impostor. Out of 193 patients, 41 were considered to be impostors and a further 42 were considered suspect. In reality, Rosenhan had sent no pseudopatients; all patients suspected as impostors by the hospital staff were ordinary patients.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlanta_Nights

A "traditional publisher" which claimed to accept only high-quality manuscripts for publication kept talking shit about science fiction and fantasy authors, so some got together and made one of the worst books they could.

It included a missing chapter, two chapter 12s, two word-for-word identical chapters, the same plot written by two different authors, a computer-generated chapter (this was in 2004), characters randomly dying and reappearing without explanation and just changing attributes, and a secret spoiler ending mentioned in the article!

It was unironically accepted for publication, until the authors revealed the hoax a month later, confirming critics' prior accusations of them being a vanity press. It was later published throught a print on demand publisher with all profits going to a community medical fund.
It was partially inspired by the related Naked Came the Stranger.

Also number 5 is a cannibal, he even 8 9 (9 was the autistic sibling of 6), thats why 5 is soo fat.
