One common joke in my life is: “Well It’s on the Internet, it HAS to be true”.
The real truth is that people are always trying to put THEIR thoughts in YOUR head.
I mean, sure I may or may not have believed in the Easter bunny until well into my 20’s but that was simply because I love, love, love Cadbury cream eggs. I was convinced that the clucking bunny rabbit in their commercials was the only logical way that such deliciousness could be created.
