It's totally just an explanation for alcohol poisoning.

I know it's been discussed before. I am quite familiar with it. I was on snopes and found this and thought it was interesting. If you're not interested, don't post anything.

Imagine an interweb forum filled world where only people who agreed with the OP or previous poster would ever consider posting.

ex:

A. I think B. Obama is a poor leader.

B. I totally agree. His leadership skills are not good.

C. You are both so correct. Why doesn't the world see this?

A. Right on! We should totally impeach his ass!

B. Hells Yeah!

C. In fact, why don't we just burn down the White House?

A. That's a little too much, I think, but I'd never post anything contradictory or in any way negative on the internet. So, yeah! Let's burn down the White House!

B. WOH! You guys really know how to party! I'm in. I've got the torches and gas.

A. Great! I've got heavy chains and locks to make sure no one gets out.

C. I'm so glad that everyone on the internet agrees with this! This is going to be so much fun!

D. Hey! Are you guys planning on burning down the White House? Well, count me in. I've got a bunch of horses we can use.

B. Horses? Well, I guess that's a great a idea. I mean, it's posted on the internet so I cannot say anything bad about it.

D. Yeah, horses are really the only way to perform an old fashioned house burning.

C. Wow, D, you've done this before?

A. This is really starting to come together! I'm starting to plan my outfit right now. I'm thinking black ninja gear. Anyone else have any ideas?

D. @C, yeah i've burned a couple houses. I'm from the South, and well you know how we like to chain people's doors closed and burn them alive. @A, hey i'd never go against something posted on the internet but since you asked: let's stay away from the black ninja clothes. I mean, are we embarrassed or something? I've got some lovely white cloaks and hats in the attic. Did i mention i was from the south?

B. He really is a lousy leader. This is going to be great.

E. Hey you [MOD EDIT: negative comments will not be tolerated]

C. Who was that jerk?

D. Totally!

A. So negative. I mean. Let's all try to get along here. I mean it's the internet - we should all totally try to agree with each other.

B. Now you're talking logic. OK, when are we gonna meet to burn this lousy leader's house down?

C. ASAP!

D. Bump for awesomeness
