**AIDS,HIV,AIDS,HIV,AIDS** Nov 02, 2005
Hello everyone, information that could be interesting:



This happened in Paris . A few weeks ago, in a movie theatre, a person sat on something poking that was on one of the seats.

When she got up to see what it was, she found a needle sticking out of the seat with a note attached saying : "You have just been infected by HIV".

The Disease Control Centre (in Paris) reports many similar events in many other cities recently. All tested needles ARE HIV Positive.
the Centre also reports that needles have been found in the cash dispensers at public Banking Machines (ATMs). We ask everyone to use extreme caution when faced with this kind of situation. All public chairs/seats should be inspected with vigilance and caution before use.

A careful visual inspection should be enough. In addition, they ask that each of you pass this message alon g to all members of your family and your friends of the potential danger. Thank you.

The information mentioned above has been sent by the Ville d'Issy Les Moulineaux Municipal Police and to all departments of Ile de France who have transmitted this news to all its' cities. We have been asked to pass this message along to the greatest number of people as possible.

This is very important Just think: you could save a life just by forwarding this message. Please take a few seconds of your time to pass it along

Man, that's actually pretty scarey.

A guy just got convicted in the UK for spreading HIV knowingly to women.

Also the horrid thing is you'd have to wait six months to find out if you've become infected, they'd do an initial test then you have to go back six months later, that's torture enough in itself.

I'm sorry, but just need to clarify. This rumour along with many others made their way around in the late nineties. The above is just a RUMOUR and was considered what you call an urban myth. There is no truth to it at all.

http://www.snopes.com/horrors/madmen/pinprick.asp

Other rumours going around were someone spreading it nightclubs (what actually affected business in Canada for a while!) and getting stuck with needles from the change slot in payphones...

So dont take any heed to these myths...! :)

I've been living in Japan - never saw any tinned babies at the local supermarket. Definitely a myth. Do you not think human rights organisations would have gone spare if it was true???

Ok ok ok.

So the story goes, apparently a guy went into KFC oneday and asked for a chicken burger with NO Mayonnaise.

His burger, fries etc comes and he sits down and starts to tuck in, when he gets to this squooshy stuff in the burger, which for all intense and purposes looks exactly like mayonnaise.

So the guy goes back upto the counter and tells the server that he requested no mayo in his burger, to which the teller says they didn't put any mayo in his burger.

On closer inspection, the gloop wasn't mayo at all and turned out to be a tumour in the chicken filled with beauty - eeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!! :pukeleft:
