Urban Legends - 05 Nov 2007 03:50:34pm
2007-11-05 16:50:00 By Jake Rossen When Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson advances on Bo Cantrell Saturday night in EliteXC, it'll be his first authentic, sanctioned prizefight recorded in his 33 years the exhibition bout with Ray Mercer notwithstanding. Yet a substantial number of people in the arena and at home will be familiar with Kimbo Slice, both with his menacing, bearded mug and his 235-pound frame capable of rendering those in close proximity concussed and ego-bruised. That's because the Florida native has engaged observers with the time-honored Myth of the Street Fighter (MOSF©), a self-explanatory aura that never fails to fascinate fight fans. Slice is the latest in a long line of pugilists who sell tickets and capture attention based almost exclusively on their reputations as parking lot warriors. (Continue Reading)
Urban Legends
2007-11-01 11:10:00 * ---Quote (Originally by Wikipedia)--- An urban legend or urban myth is similar to a modern folklore consisting of stories thought to be factual by those circulating them. The term is often used to mean something akin to an "apocryphal story". Urban legends are not necessarily untrue, but they are often distorted, exaggerated, or sensationalized over time. Despite the name, a typical urban legend does not necessarily originate in an urban setting. The term is used to differentiate modern legend from traditional folklore in preindustrial times. ---End Quote--- Do you believe in them? Let's discuss our views....*

The 5 Creepiest Urban Legends (That Happen to be True)
2007-10-22 22:11:00 The Legend: What was thought to be your typically charming Halloween decoration depicting a lynched woman hanging from a tree, turns out to be a genuine suicide. The Truth: In the town of Frederica, Delaware, a 42-year-old woman, perhaps distraught by the fact that she lived in Delaware, hung herself from a tree near a busy road on a Tuesday night. The body managed to hang there until the next day and was viewed by many unwitting (or perhaps retarded) spectators before somebody realized it wasn’t a decoration and finally called the police. Once again it’s the lack of complaints from passers-by that amaze us. Even if the hanging thing wasn’t a body, it was something that looked exactly like one and would be considered an extremely distasteful Halloween decoration (unless she put on a wacky witch’s costume before doing the deed). With the political correctness these days, you’d have expected two special city council meetings and 30 letters to the editor ...

Urban Legends
2007-04-30 02:11:00 Why do people find it alluring to pass on silly urban legends? I don't know if I would really consider them urban legends really. What I am speaking about are those irksome emails that we all get stating to send this on to twenty people and you'll receive a $25 gift card, or various things of the sort.One I just ran across today was a blog entry telling everyone not to pump gas on May 15th. It stated that in 1997 a similar attempt was made and the next day gas dropped 30 cents a gallon. It is a nice story, but not true.There are plenty of debunking sites out there that will confirm or deny these rumors that float around. And it only takes a few seconds to check them out. Just so everyone that is reading is aware, you cannot make money, receive special gifts, or save the world just by forwarding an email.
Financial Urban Legends Dubunked

However, the scary part is that many people actually believe these urban legends to be true statements. ...

2007-03-27 04:31:00 item 4.Jenny Liebovitz was a showgirl in Las Vegas from 2031-2033. This story was told by a friend of hers who worked a poker table in the casino where Jenny performed. She heard it from a girl who worked in another casino across the street.Oh, so my friend’s friend, it was a Friday night and pretty crowded, she was running a big game, and the stakes were getting awful high, and this one fellow was winning. A strange guy, he was wearing a trench coat and gloves and some kind of big old scarf over his head and tinted glasses so, like, you couldn’t see his face or anything. This girl, running the table, she’s thinking all kinds of things in her head about this guy. Who is he? Does he have, like, leprosy, or something, is that why he’s covering his face? Or maybe it’s some kind of religious thing, or maybe a big woman who’s in drag to hide her identity for whatever reason. Who knows? A lot of crazy people come through the casinos in Vegas, so she’s only, like, a little cu...

2007-03-18 06:31:00 item 3. Minos Popadopalous worked as a bouncer in several casinos in Monte Carlo over a five year period, from 2028-33. He claims that this story was well-known throughout the area, that many of his friends in the industry had told versions in which they themselves had encounters with the gambling robots.It happening a lot, this with the robots in the casinos. They coming in pretty late at night, when they masters go to sleep, maybe in the hotels, I don’t know. They coming into the casino, maybe with a little money, and only playing cards, not the slots, not the roulette wheel. And of course they not drinking. A lot of twenty-one, they playing, and poker, of course, and high stakes, yeah. And winning. All the time winning. Pretty good. But they not drinking, like I say, and not sleeping in the hotels neither, and all the time winning, so the management, they not liking it. Only humans allowed in the casinos, they decide. These robots, they too good, they counting cards, maybe they...

2007-03-16 02:41:00 item 2This story was told in 2030 by Larissa K., a student at Berkeley. She heard it from her sister, who read about it in the San Francisco Underground Reader.This is a true story that has been hushed up—the Gates family didn’t want it get around, but it really happened, because my sister’s roommates’s cousin worked for Microsoft and she heard it there, too. You know Bobby Gates, one of the heirs, he’s a software developer, and he’d been working on this top-secret program, it was supposed to follow the market and pick stocks. You know, that’s something people have been trying to do forever, to find a fool-proof system to win on Wall Street. Well, Bobby Gates thought he’d finally got it, the program seemed to be picking winners. So, he fixed it up some more, gave it access to a real bank account, a small one, and told it just to play to market, to make money. Just to see how it worked.And it worked, too. His computer was consistently picking companies whose stocks we...

2007-03-10 08:45:00 item 1.Daniel Griffin of Schaumberg, Illinois reported this story, told to him by a fellow electrician in UEW 778, in January of 2026.It happened to his son, who’s also an electrician. Seems like he got an urgent call one morning, folks had some bad wiring. Got the picture that it was a dangerous situation, but when he got to the place where the house should’ve been, it wasn’t there. Like, the address was 26, and there was a 24 and a 32, but no 26. So my friend’s son is wandering around, trying to find the house, when this service robot calls his name, says its owner gave the wrong address, and it’s gonna take this kid to the house. ‘Cept when he gets there, it’s no house. It’s just, like, a room in an abandoned building. Didn’t even have no electricity, lights running off battery-powered generators. What is there, right, is another service-bot running a dollar-ante poker game. And there’s five, six guys, you know, regular joes sitting around the table. I guess m...
