PROP 8 OVERTURNED ARTICLE FROM LAST YEAR GOES VIRAL

this morning i noticed a facebook posting from a girl named "marie" in atlanta-

PROP 8 OVERTURNED- GAY MARRIAGE IS LEAGAL IN CA.

i became very excited and scrambled to post asap. once i posted i notice that they referred to "gov Schwarzenegger" and all the comments were 1 year old.. then i fully read the article and realized it was over a year old!.. i contacted "marie" and told her this info and to please remove. within that brief 5 mins, "marie's" posted had been reposted 50 times and counting!

"marie" was a stubborn anna, (and not that bright) i could not convince her the article was outdated... we went back & forth for another 15 minutes until i finally sent her the the dates of the article line for line.

finally i convinced her to remove. once she did, she was pissed off because she lost the entire thread.

"marie" then began posting that i had "bullied" her!

since then there have been so many repostings the article has become viral.

well " marie" look what has happened. congrads..
you are the patient zero of this false prop 8 article-

Come on, guys -- this is how rumors get started!

A Huffington Post article from August 2010 (and updated in May 2011) was littered all over Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and the rest of the Internet this morning. "Prop 8 OVERTURNED: Gay Marriage Ban Struck Down In California," reads the headline. Nope.Hard to say who was the instigating drunkard to first stumble across the piece and blast its (very dated) information to his/her entire social network, but since then, the piece has racked up thousands more shares. It currently holds HuffPost's No. 1 slot in "Hot on Facebook."

THE WICKED WITCH OF THE WEST IS 109

MARGARET HAMILTON HITS 109 TODAY~ HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOLL!

Margaret Hamilton (December 9, 1902 – May 16, 1985)

was an American film actress known for her portrayal of the Wicked Witch of the West in the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz. A former schoolteacher, she worked as a character actor in films for seven years before she was offered the role that defined her public image.

In later years, Hamilton made frequent cameo appearances on television sitcoms and commercials. She also gained recognition for her work as an advocate of causes designed to benefit children and animals, and retained a lifelong commitment to public education.

"I'll get you, my pretty . . . and your little dog, too!"~ Hamilton's line from The Wizard of Oz

FAG BASHES BACK

one of my SF- FB friends recently posted this.
it gave me a smile so i thought i would share~

"totally got GAY BASHED in front of my house after a night out in the Castro.
I'm pretty sure this scar will forever destroy the perfect symmetry of my otherwise awesome eyebrows.
I wear it henceforth as a badge of honor.

PS: The dudes that hit me look worse than I do. I beat the shit out of one of them.
I'm fine really. I got to shout a lot of really horrible words (I would never othewise say),
and I punched someone in the face. Three or four times.
I think I might have broken his nose.

There were four guys. But only two had at me. I guess I should not have answered the question~
"are you a faggot?" with "ask your dad."

so to me FB pal- MARCELO SOUSA- you are my hero for today,
