People Will Believe Anything. You Know, That's A Problem
-
It's on the Internet, so it must be true: A Belgian website claimed that the Great State of Texas bought a child to serve to a cannibal as his last meal. No such incident, no such inmate, no such meal. Asked why they posted the story, the website responded, "Hello, because that was fun." And, yeah, the site seems to be filled with fake stories, and when you read them, there's no WAY you can believe any of it. Best part: The story was updated to say that the cannibal refused to eat the child because it was overcooked. Yes, some commenters seem to believe that this happened. But, geez, it's like The Onion. Anyone who DOES believe it is not all there. (San Antonio Express-News)
