Although this is all interesting, can we get back to urban legends and spam?

I found out some people say grey goo will destroy everyone, or killer mutants, or the earth will spin off its axis...

derp.

are any crazy legends that no one should believe going around?

The tails doll curse.

What is it?



BTW what YouTube bots were people talking about earlier?

Stuff like this. I found one of the bot comments and copied it:

"@siufn8 Yup i too am guilty of diet cheating as well, I must have tested every single program that was available. I was losing hope but decided to try one last time with the new Nutrisystem weightloss program because I got a 3 month membership for free and so far to date I am really happy to say I have lost 35 pounds in 3 weeks! I found my completely free 3 month membership here: [virus link]"

Re: E-Mail frauds and urban legends...

All I can really say about them is the fact that they're annoying. I usually don't look at them, I read the first sentence and automatically know it's spam because of the first sentence being like this most of the time:

ONCE YOU START READING THIS YOU CANNOT STOP.

Well, I just did bro.


Bye 1.4!

Re: E-Mail frauds and urban legends...

Someone hacked my tennis coach's email account and sent an email to my mom saying that he was in Spain, got mugged, and needed money. Typically, my mom didn't reply.

Re: E-Mail frauds and urban legends...

I was on the Furby page on Tv Tropes a few days ago and apparently back in 1999, there was an email claiming that Furby was used by spies to gather information.

Oh gosh, the word Furby itself is enough! Those things are so creepy/demonic in my eyes...

anywho
the thought of that is disturbing, considering my best friend is going to get one for Christmas...

The story is about a doll named Robert that supposedly attacks and mocks people. But if you want to see the entire story you're going to have to copy and paste or look it up xD

One which is rather popular and widely believed, despite its non-manifestation.

It's hard holding you're breath when you're walking and the cemetery's like 100 feet long.

Her death could be considered a bit gruesome, but then the rest is kind of obviously fake.

Dead girls with broken necks don't kill people. I find this story part weird, part funny. (Call me crazy.)
EDIT: If somebody thinks it's bad, let's delete all our posts that have to do with this.

It's seriously not THAT violent.

I removed a part, which made it a little less violent -u-
I personally don't think this story is all that bad though, I just edited it for reporting reasons..

Okay, if you really want me to...
