Let's hope they weren't doing that webcam thing!

I'm shocked, shocked to find that this sort of thing is going on in France!

And they're stupid, too!
MARSEILLES, France -- Skirt-chasing playboy Daniel Anceneaux spent weeks talking with a sensual woman on the Internet before arranging a romantic rendezvous at a remote beach -- and discovering that his on-line sweetie of six months was his own mother!

"I walked out on that dark beach thinking I was going to hook up with the girl of my dreams," the rattled bachelor later admitted. "And there she was, wearing white shorts and a pink tank top, just like she'd said she would.

"But when I got close, she turned around -- and we both got the shock of our lives. I mean, I didn't know what to say. All I could think was, 'Oh my God! it's Mama!' "

But the worst was yet to come. Just as the mortified mother and son realized the error of their ways, a patrolman passed by and cited them for visiting a restricted beach after dark.

"Danny and I were so flustered, we blurted out the whole story to the cop," recalled matronly mom Nicole, 52. "The policeman wrote a report, a local TV station got hold of it -- and the next thing we knew, our picture and our story was all over the 6 o'clock news. "People started pointing and laughing at us on the street -- and they haven't stopped laughing since."

Is it just me, or does this sound like something the from the Onion?

Someone posted this story before. That time it was the Weekly World News. This seems to be a more respectable news source, but I'm not trusting it....

Oh. It's actually originally from the Weekly World News (http://www.weeklyworldnews.com/features/technology/60810). Another wonderful story (http://www.weeklyworldnews.com/features/chamber/61631) in that issue is about how sleeping with the Weekly World News under your pillow brings you luck!

"Because WWN is one of the most important and highly respected newspapers of all time, it too is undoubtedly supercharged with 'good luck' properties. By sleeping on it night after night, a person can readily absorb this mystical energy."

Since Snark's lecture, Mitchell Middleton, a massage therapist, has been sleeping with half a dozen copies of WWN under his pillow, and is convinced this has brought him tremendous good fortune.

"Just yesterday, I found a gold watch lying on the sidewalk, and this morning a lady friend I've been smitten with for ages suddenly asked me out on a date!

"Coincidence? I think not."

Jesus Kimchi...why do you keep putting this crap up?

No, it's actually from the WWN...Yahoo just got it in their gossip section. It does say to the top right that it's from the WWN, and gives you a link to the original article.

It's his job..?

Just a wild guess...


(just google "daniel anceneaux" - it's funny that no french site mentions him)

It's his job..?


Let's ask some of the other people on here - if I was always serious on this forum, and always riding people's asses until they reported me for constant flaming about their politics, how much fun would I really be?

Apparently claiming you were a government employee assigned to post propagandist posts in NS wasn't funny enough..?!?

Hmmm... that's about as absurd I can come up with. Sorry to have let you down.

I work for a government contractor - I'm not a government employee - and I think it was The Nazz who claimed it was my job to post propaganda on NS (or at least spin for Bush).

Well, you could say that Nokia has hired secret people to roam public forums and catch Nokia employees goofing off on the job so that they can export their jobs to India...

The Indians are everywhere. And they spread rumors about how they are successfully replacing people everywhere.

Kind of like "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" but it happens at work instead of at home while you're sleeping".

Ahh, the French. :p :p

The Indians are everywhere.
I know! And look at what they did to your original thread title! Such tomfoolery - mistyping 'hijabs' like that. Indians and their shenanigans....
