i'm sorry, but sometimes i feel liek people who propogate these hoaxes are the same people who "send this message to 5 people on your buddy list for a prize" and also send me joke emails that begin with fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd:Fwd:fwd:Fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd:fwdsome lame joke.

Just keep it to yourself and go to forwarding school. Delete fwd from the subject line and all the "originally sent by john to fred fwd fred to john" crap at the begging. Nothing i love more than to open a 10 page email scrolling tot he bottom to find a one line joke that has been forwarded through more people than herpes.

WTF is wrong with people. The FIRST person to respond showed that it was a hoax post and yet people respond 'thanks for the warning your a hero i wish i could have your sweat soaked tshirt'. its not real. Its a joke. a hoax. a fabrication. my girlfriend. imaginary. All you have done by posting 'thanks' is let everyone be abl to see who fell for this hoax. Sweet.
