My most gullible momentSomeone once told me that gullible wasn't in the dictionary and I went, "yeah yeah ha ha" but when they were gone that didn't stop me checking. What was YOUR most gullible moment? Zero points for buying an icon on b3ta.

Poseidon AdventureI read on Snopes.com that when the Titanic sank, D.W. Griffith's silent-film version of "The Poseidon Adventure" was being screened onboard. I believed it too, since the purpose of Snopes is to debunk urban myths.
Turns out Snopes salts their debunking efforts with outright lies, in order to catch the gullible and subject them to ridicule. Always use more than one source to do fact-checking, Snopes says.
My "friends" still laugh over that....
