    Bull, people are more gullible. Back when I was a kid, if you hear something on the street, you went and checked it. But on the internet, people accept shit as-is, because they like it and that’s it. Fucking hell.

      I grew up pretty certain in the ideas that AIDs was gay cancer, Boy George was straight, Marilyn Manson had a rib removed to perform auto fellatio, Mother Theresa was the very idea of kindness, a girl couldn’t get pregnant if she sucked on you after cumming in her, and that jet fuel could melt steel beams.

      (Some of those I only half-believed and maybe not all the best examples)
