Finally caught a fake news story before I shared it for once

I always thought I was too smart to fall for propaganda, but last Tuesday a friend linked me a wild story about FEMA camps and I actually tracked it back to a satirical site from 2014 before hitting post.

Patricia, your comment about chain emails got me. My buddy Dave once forwarded a story about fluoride in water turning frogs gay, swore it was from a science journal. Turned out he got it from a forwarded email chain started by his uncle in 2009, took him years to figure that one out.

Pat myself on the back too hard and I'll probably fall for a chain email next week... feels good to dodge one though.
