Then why the bloody blazes have you come to a boxing forum to share it? Clearly and obviously a made up joke story. Should have taken half a second to realise that.

Feck me, I bet you fell for the Daily Sport story about a double decker bus being on Mars!!
Um and if you're so sure it was nonsense, why did you not only click on the thread but take the time to comment on it, you engorged, priapic bellend. ;-)
Because I knew what the link was and wanted further confirmation of what an unintelligent cock you actually are. Keyboard warrior. No wonder you are such an abject life failure
Oh boo hoo, do you need a hug from mummykins Tobykins? Mummy make it better, hush no need to cry :lol: Looks like you like to dish it out but can't take a little bit back.... I suggest to posters that you in fact are the so-called 'keyboard warrior'.... Just another internet cry baby. Don't worry mummy kiss it better :lol:

Not that I expect any seriousness on this forum, but the danger of this is that people share stuff without thinking and take no responsibility for fact checking and do not think of the repercussions of their actions. Journalists have an ethical responsibility to publish accurate information (not tabloid arseholes) but now through social media, anyone and everyone can write and share whatever they want.

See a picture of a guy with some caption calling him a peado and then wording underneath saying something like: "Look out for this man, he was a family friend and looked after my children, the b*astard then made them touch his cock, the police know and are looking for him." And then a couple thousand shares later, an assumption this was true. But no one bothered their arse to check any of it. Truth is that he dumped some girl, who had no kids and she is a bitter bitch who made up a fake account, made the post and let it fly around the world. When people find out it is fake, how many of them will then share the correction? Probably none, they will move on to the next BS share.

Now this sounds all a leap and a bit melodramatic I know, but it is all connected and drives me mad. I have no experience of the above, but it is an example which I know has happened. But here is another one that is true. 16 months ago my kids step dad had a heart attack outside of the house. Some pudendum who happened to walk past the scene while emergency services were there decided to share the story on Facebook, that he was dead, a RIP post which got shared all over the bloody place. We were all still at the hospital while they were working on him. He did die that night, but I cannot tell you how much this story, on FB, an hour before he was declared dead caused huge emotional trauma to my children. Not to mention his dad, who we could not get hold of as he was Christmas shopping 70 miles away, got to hear of it through social fecking media as someone with him, who we did not know, happened to log on.

Toby,

Don't take the internet seriously at all. I don't open links of any kind on Facebook.

As the world gets more connected it's get more 'dumbed down' to use a shite expression.

And this is why we need to focus on the pelicans. I love pelicans.

The more I take things seriously, the more miserable it makes me. You are right of course

Fair enough mate.i saw the post on my timeline by a boxing fan, was concerned though unconvinced posted it quickly without researching. After a bit of research I realised it was crap. And that's the story :-)

You are definitely a little melodramatic Toby but actually I do agree with what you say about social media. I despise the whole bloody thing. Humanity hasn't evolved enough for people to have the freedom to publish to a mass audience responsibly. Because unfortunately, technological innovation is not the same as true evolution or enlightenment. In this vacuous free market world, innovations happen without the discriminatory powers of foresight or wisdom.

The same is true of science.
