You Can't Believe Half Of What You Read On The Internet.

[sandyRoe]

Probably even less than that today.  Anything you've seen that makes you think, 'hoax'?

[davebro3]

I'm very trusting - why would people lie to me?🙄

[Old_Geezer]

The trick is to identify which half.

 

(Sometimes the poster's name gives it away.)

[sandyRoe]

I trust nobody since the time I sold the family cow for a tin of magic beans.  When I got them home I saw they were only Heinz beans with the label scrubbed off.

Fool me once, shame on you...

I'll not be tricked again.

[Old_Geezer]

I'm puzzled, if the label was missing how did you know you had beanz, and not beans ?

[sandyRoe]

The quality of the sauce and the slightly al dente feel of the beans.  

I'd know them anywhere.

[retrocop]

They were has beens.

Sometimes the headline of a news article has no bearing on the story or same headlines but different details. Eg Kate has cancer. However surgery removed the cancerous cells and she is receiving precautionary chemo

[newmodarmy]

Mmm....in my experience there's usually still cancer cells that have moved around the body and are lurking ready to reappear soon after.

I think the football story may dissappear in a couple of hours.

Some fools are present 365 days of the year. Or 366 this year.

[sandyRoe]

What kind of an answer on a light hearted thread like this would need to be removed?

Its become one big advertising machine for the good, bad and the ugly. But it can be a great machine when you learn how to navigate round the bad and ugly.

I don't believe you. 😉
