First one is real. Wells Fargo did apologize after getting a lot of flack.
I fear they are all real.
They're all real. Shocking, but true.
But how come "Michael Still Dead, Feared to Become Zombie As In Own Music Video" went under your radar?
Indeed, all real.
I skipped the MJ story because it was too obviously true.
I believe No. 2, what w/ Euro games.
I believe the doggy dating one.
So that leaves the scorpions and the AIDS ad
So, I would vote that the AIDS ad starring Hitler is the fake.
And now that I real all the comments, I see that they ARE true. (I had a feeling they were, but I TRUSTED you!)
Hey, I never actually said any were fake--you just inferred it!
