Don't forward it. Snopes it!

|

A tantrum:

Why, oh why, can I not convince my coworkers and friends that they shouldn't just forward messages telling them to forward to all their friends, not without looking them up first?

I keep telling them about Snopes.com, and they nod their heads, and then the next stupid "warning" message that comes along, they just forward it to half their addressbook. I feel like I'm banging my head against a wall.

It's not computer programming, people. It's not even trying to figure out how to record something on your VCR (I find that daunting, actually). You just go to a website and type a word or two into a searchbox. Not real difficult, not a lengthy process.

Snopes.com Bookmark it. Please?
