Online BS Detector
Ever wonder if some of those things that pop up in your email are real? Are people really raising kittens inside glass bottles? Did a turkey really bite President Bush in the privates? Is Starbucks really a money laundering operation for the mafia?
Fortunately for everyone, you don't have to guess. Simply go to Snopes.com and look it up. If they don't have it listed, give them a few days, it'll show up.
Most of that stuff is complete BS ... but more surprisingly, some of it is actually real. Urban legends have to start somewhere. But do yourself and everyone else a favor. Make sure to let that friend who keeps forwarding all that stuff know they should be checking Snopes before clicking the send button.
