It's a lie, Kel. It really is.

People tell stories like this in third person because it seems funnier or more interesting. Like the one about the glitter spray and the gynecologist. The Neiman Marcus cookie recipe... Free disney trip for forwarding emails... La-a is one of those. Your neighbor may be a fibber, but she was just trying to make light conversation by passing on a funny story.

To the regular posters - sorry about my OT post. I'll leave it be - that kind of thing just gets under my skin.

So, Tamarind. Where to begin.

Ok, so it's agreed that La-a is a big lie.

Outside of that, I call BS.

Do you really believe that with all the server wipes, website upgrades, data transfers, re-routes, re-writes, crashes, hacks, changes and other data based internet events that you have the single definitive source of a viral internet meme?

Snopes, for one, says it started in an email. Here's a tip - before you start writing that paper, you might want to actually take a peek at the largest hoax busting site on the web.

Oh, and the first email I ever read about related to this was deeply, overtly racist. So, you know, don't leave that part out.

This just seems like an attention grab to me, and a bad one at that.

Good luck writing that paper. <eyeroll>
