No Diane - I’ve heard it too.
Oh, and not to go off the subject or anything, hope you have a wonderful trip!!
Thanks Missy! 
You better be nice or I’ll sic my lackeys on ya.
Ang-
That is quite a funny story, I’m glad to hear how it ended up. Ignore Monty (he’s an idiot) and Diane, (she needs to get laid).

Yeah, I agree, I need to get laid, it has been almost 6 weeks now and my batteries are almost dead - UGH! But begining this Friday, I will get more sex than you probably have in your life time.
Anyhooo. . … just what the hell does my sex life have to do with the story being a crock of shit? I don’t give a flying rats ass if this is MPSIMS or not, the SDMB main objective is to fight ignorance. If you choose to believe this urban legend as fact, well then, it just shows what a gullible idiot you are.
I’m selling ocean front property dirt cheap here in Utah, are you interested?
You better be nice or I’ll sic my lackeys on ya.
Yet again another case of a long time doper jumping on a newer one because the older one thinks they know all after reading a few books and urban legend archives.
Diane, can’t you possibly fathom that some things may be “urban legends” because they happen? I mean good god, must you cause strife for everyone just because you’re miserable all the time?
If Ang says this happened i’ll believe her, it’s not like some stupid “crawfish in the bladder” story, this is just an every day pervo trying to get his jollies by jerking off. Maybe it was the mechanic… maybe it was the husband, but the point is, no need to harass this young lady just because you deem anything that you haven’t seen with your own eye as false.
You always use violence. I should’ve ordered glutinous rice chicken.
Diane-
I understand you believe it is a UL. But the two big differences are that Ang said it happened to her not a “FOAF”. And Angkins is not known to spin UL’s as truth.
Secondly, I have never heard this UL, (although I wouldn’t be surprised to get it in an email, as crazy as the story is) but if you want to post a link to the snopes page where it is listed I’d be more than happy to offer an apology.
PS It has nothing to do with you needing to get laid. That was wrong. I shouldn’t have attacked your sex life. Now go and hump like monkeys for the week!

Hey, if you guys wanna be gullible, by all means knock yourself out. Ya know, if I knew how to draw one of those nice little animated graphic thingies, I would insert it oh. . . . right about
.

It would be of an index finger hooking into the side of a mouth, you know, kinda like a fish hook? I think I would put a green mohawk on the head and maybe make the eyes crosses. I would make the finger pull the corner of the mouth in and out, but since I can’t draw those nice little animation thingies, you’ll just have to imagine it.
My best friend’s ex-husband was arrested for jacking off onto the windshields of women’s cars in a mall parking lot. In fact, he was arrested more than a few times. I have no doubt there are many perverts out there who do this sort of thing. Hell, I personally have had sex in public, okay so it was more than masturbation, but you get the picture.
The thing is, is when I got to the part about the other manager, the story became all too similar to the UL. I think the coincidence is a little bit too weird. \
If the fact that instead of reading the OP and gasping with amazement, I brought it to the attention that this is a common UL makes me “miserable all the time”, then there are a few “miserable” people around here. I mean, not all of us are that freakin gullible.
I never said that an UL is something that could never happen. In fact, some ULs are partly based reality. What I did say is that this story is a little bit too similar to the known UL.
:::insert anothert fish-hook-mouth-thingy here:::
Frankie - No problem, you can attack my sex life anytime.
I still ain’t buying it.
You better be nice or I’ll sic my lackeys on ya.
The Pollocks are the people who really lost the war.
Over half a million fighting men and women, and 6 million bitches (or 22% of the total population) died. About 50% of these were Pollock Christians/hypocrites and 50% were Pollock Jews. Approximately 5,384,000, or 89.9% of Pollock war losses (Jews and Gentiles) were the victims of prisons, death camps, raids, executions, annihilation of ghettos, epidemics, starvation, excessive work and ill treatment. So many Pollocks were sent to concentration camps that virtually every family had someone close to them who had been tortured or murdered there. And that is why Polish people suck ass.
Actually i wasn’t saying you were miserable because you didn’t buy it, i said you were miserable because you have a tendancy to jump all over other posters quite a bit.
Believe what you like, but rather than asking the OP if they knew of such a UL, you had to out and out accuse someone of lying for no other reason than to try and make yourself look like “the smart one who didn’t get fooled”.
Personally i just think you act like a fool.
You always use violence. I should’ve ordered glutinous rice chicken.
Holy smokes, I’m not sure I want to step in here, but I don’t understand the attacks on Diane explaining that HER bs meter went off and explaining why. What did I miss here?
Where did Melanoma’s post come from, and why did s/he conclude that the Polish suck ass?
I sold my soul to Satan for a dollar. I got it in the mail.

Thanks for your support!
I apologize if this is double posted!

Rubes - What you are witnessing is the phenomena that happens when people are sucked into a story that they really, really, REALLY want to believe only to have it pointed out that the story is false. They tend to get infuriated and attack those who debunked the story. It is pretty common with urban legends, in fact, watch the reaction you get when you set the next person straight who tells you the about the FOAF who woke up in a tub full of ice minus a kidney.
Monty had the audacity to question the story, I had the nerve to state that the story is a little bit too similar to an UL that has been going around for years, hell, even Missy mentioned that she has heard of the UL. It is obvious that anyone who doesn’t agree with everything you believe sends you into such hysteria BurnMeUp, that you feel the need to personally attack just because I didn’t suck this story in without question.
Oh fuckin well. . . .
You better be nice or I’ll sic my lackeys on ya.
Diane,
Let me interupt here and openly admit that what I know about urban ledgends could fit into a thimble.
My whole point for posting that story was that the whole thing was so completely bizarre that I felt it was a funny story to share. If I had had any idea that this completely weird set of coincidences was going to cause such a stir on the board (or if I had even wanted it to) I would not have bothered putting it in MPSIMS, I would have gone straight to the PIT.
New and improved…and more controversial than ever.
There is a classic urban legend about a baby being microwaved.
In real life, babies have been microwaved.
While I agree that it raises eyebrows a little, I repeat that there’s nothing inherently incredible about the story. If Angkins says it’s true, I have no reason to doubt her. The fact that her story resembles a UL doesn’t automatically make it false.

Uhhh, I’m with Techchick68 on this one:
LIGHTEN THE F** UP!** or have the moderator move it to the Pit.
BTW, Melanoma: HUH?!
Sheeesh! I going back to the shuttle on the Guy Stuff thread; at least we’re havin’ fun there!

I could never eat a mouse raw…their little feet are probably real cold going down. :rolleyes:
And I still can’t figure out why anyone was attacking Atlantic fish during WWII (and I certainly have no idea how anyone discovered what religions those fish practiced). And then, to have Melanoma wrap up the fish story with a comment (insult?) on Poles made absolutely no sense.

Melanoma, aside from crossposting, you have confused pollock (the variant spelling of the fish “pollack”) with Polack, the insulting term for a Pole.
I’d suggest you give it up for a while.
Tom~
all very amusing, as far as I read it, skipping
HOPE you all learned how to spell masturbate
I was wondering how long it was going to take to notice my typo.
Well, gee Diane, thanks for saving all of us gullible people from making the huge mistake of believing someone on their merit! Thank god we have you, the world’s foremost UL investigator, to save us from ourselves! What would we do without you here to debunk all of these people whom we thought were sincere…
Jesus, are you freakin’ paranoid or what??? I feel bad for you, Diane, having to walk through this world with your “bullshit detector” armed and ready at all times. Did you really get burned that bad that you need to live in such doubt?
