For my money it has to be the one about Rod Stewart needing to get his stomach pumped because he blew too many dudes.

This is also an amazing one which actually is true:
The host of Candid Camera being on a plane that got hijacked in 1969 and the passengers thought they were on TV.

Anything "factual" asserted by TJC

Also that if you flash your lights at a car driving without lights the car will follow you and kill you as a gang initiation.

Your sick twisted obsession continues and it's ruining threads for all of the good to very good posters who are being driven from the newsgroup because of your old tired/boring nonsense!!!!

 

[The_Z_Man]

Two of the above I heard with different names. I heard it was Mick Jagger who had to get his stomach pumped, and it was Richard Gere with the gerbil.

I chose to believe "We 'bout done here dawg" actually happened.

Also that if you flash your lights at a car driving without lights the car will follow you and kill you as a gang initiation.

Several of my co-workers (who happened to be middle aged women) were adamant that this actually happens.

[Novacatt94]

Romney wins "handily"

[nycat04]

the female orgasm

 

[KennyTheKangaroo]

Speaking of gum, my girlfriend told me not to chew gum while playing sports because you can choke to death.

I agreed to get rid of the gum, not because I was afraid of choking but because it is such an asinine argument that I didn't even feel like dealing with it.

AIDS started because a gay guy in Africa had sex with an AIDS monkey.

Any story that involves Allen Iverson.

Any story that involves Allen Iverson.

Incorrect. I watched him with my own 2 eyes take a piss in a Vegas casino in the corner because he was too drunk/lazy/ignorant to go to a restroom.

 

[BAC111]

Anything stated as fact by Carl Rove or Dick Morris in regard to election results.

 

[TheFoyeEffect]

It's sort of akin to the Rod Stewart story, but instead it's Stevie Nicks doing so much coke that she completely destroyed her septum and had to get people to blow coke up her ass with a straw.

Any apocryphal story about Rickey Henderson.

Jayson Werth banging Jen Utley.

 

[KrazyKat]

You shouldn't shower during a storm because you could get struck by lightening

I got 'struck' by lightning during a shower. I touched the metal water knob to turn it off and in a split second felt a jolt of energy through my right arm that went down my left side. Also, answered the house phone during a storm only to feel the phone vibrating/buzzing. These incidents happened about 30 years ago.

 

[HereComeTheCats]

Boogergate

Nova to the ACC

What is adorable is now since Temple is having a respectable season beating all non-ranked teams, Temple fans probably think they now have a shot at the ACC. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

- 9/11 wasn't an inside job
- Moon landing. The US put a man on the moon 50 years ago but with all the incredible advancements in technology since, that made the technology then look like child's play, hasn't moved a man beyond our orbit.
