Sorry to butt into this thread, but I would like to draw everyone's attention (since I am an attention whore) to the FACT that "in-seriousness" provides data which can be verified if one cares enough to find out the truth.
At the same time, "VargThePissed" tries to implant direct links in your mind between things that may or may not be related. Pay attention to the phrase "everyone knows". Spreading rumors much?
