Oh no! My computer is infected by a massive amount of trojans! O-M-G!
Panic panic
I’ve seen it: they’ve been scanning my hard drive, scanned some exe’s and dll’s and here’s the proof!
It never happened in my entire life and now…
Wait. Is that Safari? Ohhh.. Right…
I’m on a Mac.
Losers.
Every night, all over the world, hundreds of people see this
face in their dreams. If this man appears in your dreams
too, or if you have any information that can help us
identify him, please contact us.
thisman.org claims that the project started because the man was first described by the patient of a well known psychiatrist and later recognized by several patients of different psychiatrists and they want to find out who he is.
Some state they fell in love with him. To some he gave ‘em advice. I think he’s just creepy.
A well-known psychiatrist. Where did I read this before?
Sure this is another hoax, sure this is fake, however, clever found. How to know for sure? Two things.
So be prepared and remember not to forward this when it appears in your mailbox, or this man might start chasing you in your dreams…
The girls/women in my surrounding are looking for anti-aging products, anti cellulite products, anti-wrinkle creams… They even don’t want to go swimming because “they look fat”. Please. Cut the crap. They’re just fine. Being 50 but looking like 35. and absolutely not too fat. All made up by television.
- “Oh, I wish I looked like <enter model name from magazine here>,” is what I hear rather often.
I showed them this:
- “Well,” I said, “do you want to look like that?”
- “Yeah, but that’s fake”
- “Oh and that image of <magazine name> isn’t?”
Let’s see.
I admit, those advertisement girls are really beautiful. But watch to them as a piece of art. The face you see isn’t real. It’s fake. It’s a painting. It’s an illusion, a fantasy. You don’t want to try and learn how to fly on a broom, are you? You aren’t trying to let your car talk, are you? You aren’t trying to look like the Mona Lisa, are you? Why then are you trying to look like these advertisement girls?
Face it. They’re fake.
This weekend I closed my facebook account. Due to reasons you can read all over the place. Only, I didn’t find the option “Close account” anymore, and I’m sure it was there once so I just “deactivated” it, leaving it “reserved for me” until I login again… not that I’m planning to, except when somebody tells me how to close it definitively.
And if I had written this down earlier, then probably I would have been mentioned too…
A couple of days ago, my sister was telling that she had read on the Internet that Playboy had been retouching a model a little too much, removing her belly button. I’ve done a little search and sure enough, the image was found rather quickly.
The mistake went unnoticed, and the magazine sold 605,000 copies that month… lots of readers got pissed off when they realized they were wasting money on fake pictures.
That is however, what the Internet wants you to believe. Some people are thinking a bit further, and even analyse the image, showing that the image was originally digital and not edited by Playboy. It’s fake. The image, the blame, the story. Again. Second time in two weeks I didn’t follow my own advice I tell to others: do not believe whatever you read, especially not whatever is on the Internet.
My sister told me. And then I found it on the Internet. So I just didn’t even think about whether it could be wrong.
The longer I think about the story, the more I realize how stupid I’ve been believing it. It just starts with how they didn’t even notice the belly button was removed. Or how they could could even remove it by accident in the first place! And the readers, the readers! Pissed off because they noticed the images were Photoshopped. Of course they are Photoshopped! I don’t think you can find any magazine in the world in which the images aren’t retouched! Especially not in magazines like Playboy! And the clues just keep coming. This is just a plain, ordinary hoax. Damn.
The original image is here (small, but large enough to see the belly button). The photo was published in VIP Magazine, June 2006.
Luckily, I can comfort myself with the fact that I at least do some research before blogging something. Suppose I would have copied the text just like the other blogs and make this another ordinary blog copying erroneous information. Then I really would have a reason to be ashamed… And while searching, reading, browsing, you might reach a question like: what’s wrong in the picture below (click to enlarge)?
Any idea?
Several guesses about the reason the girl murdered her sister were
Creep,
by Auric Goldfinger.
None of the above is correct. There is no connection between the boy and the sister whatsoever. He’s a total stranger to both of the girls. The only link between the boy and the girl, is the funeral of a relative. Hence, in order to regain the phone number of the boy, she has to activate that only link, which can be done by killing her sister and then hope the boy will appear on this funeral too. FnH found it, perhaps using the Internet, hopefully by using only his head.
It isn’t clear whether she’s autistic and by default, autistic people don’t commit murders, but sure enough she’s psychopatic.
I was told this story isn’t just a story. It appears to be a psychological test, developed by a famous psychologist, used to test if one has the same mentality as a killer. It is said that many arrested serial killers could answer this question correctly.
Scary hint: I managed to find the answer in 5 minutes, without knowing any clue of the answer in advance. It’s funny, ’cause I don’t have anything of a psychopath in me – not that I know. I asked this question to several other people and my conclusion is that it merely tests the ability to see connections and to filter important information out.
While searching for the name of this famous psychologist, I noticed this story has been copied to a huge amount of websites and forums and all of them end the same way, all of them mention the “famous American psychologist” but none of them actually mention a name. Until one page shows me it isn’t really a psychological test. So it is just a story, and it explains immediately the sentence “If you got the answer correct, please let me know so I can take you off of my email list unless that will tick you off, then I’ll just be extra nice to you from now on.” which can be read throughout the Internet: Just another e-mail forward. The magic of the story dissapears at once, but it is still a cool story to tell at family parties or reunions.

Naar verluit verluidt heeft SBS6 besloten de belspelletjes van het scherm te halen. Of er een verband bestaat, is niet bekend.
Junkmail… Sometimes, it’s realy funny to know what they want to sell you. Take these mails I got today:
Phu-lease… If your limited offer has been sold out, why bother sending an e-mail? “Do you want Rolex?” Well if I would, I’d be too late wouldn’t I?
