Greatest false rumors of all time
Of course, what is this world without rumors that have no fact to them whatsoever, going around our minds infecting our perceptions, and all around sometimes causing chaos. In school rumors tear friends a part because some fool likes to make people's lives miserable. Really, sometimes I just have to go by the old saying "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."
I remember the time that I got an e-mail telling me of a virus and where to find it. Of course I tracked it, and deleted it (12 at the time) and it turned out to be something for word to have longer document names or something? Oh boy did my father make fun then.
And of course, in the world of gaming, sometimes rumor about games being redone for the GC. Or something like Sega being bought out but Nintendo, you know, those good things. If you were given one second to think of a rumor that either tricked you, or just gave you something to do, what would it be?
