Comment: Your self-depreciating humor is funny and show's your not full of
yourself.

Well, except in the literal sense that we're all full of ourselves,
otherwise we'd spill onto the floor.

Comment: Hello, I am 12 years old, I read your site all the time, it's one
of the best sites I've ever been to. I like how you make humorous names to
go with all the articles, I am glad that you take the time, out of your
*cough* busy schedule, to do this for us all.

1. Snopes is married and is not in love with you.

2. You cannot claim to be tired if you are this hyperactive.

3. After you "shut down" the people who send you misinformation, you will probably need to find some more "friends."

4. Thanks are not necessary - we are only doing our jobs.

preblems we have are with the people them selfs. all you have to do is

Comment: Being of the same ilk as most of your staff, that is, a
skeptical, unwilling believer of most of the drudge that washes into
my inbox, I would like to take a moment and commend you on the
seemingly scholarly approach you took in making the Sixpence story
come to life. I actually saw the story of TLC's "fact" bridge before
reading the story. But that you can take such a rediculous premise and
make it at very least seem plausible is a credit to your literary
prowess. Keep up the good work on keeping those who have abandoned
common sense in line, and I'd like to see some more of these
wonderfully constructed works of fiction. Well done.

Comment: Wow, I cannot tell you how much I love this site. As a pubescent
conspiracy theorist and someone who is very much into urban legends, I
have to say, this site is very imformative and its just plain awesome. I
also love the weird news page you have. It brightens my day when I read
about someone who robbed a library or ate his own foot or did something
stupid like that. Thank you so much for this website and I hope you can
dig up many more urban legends for me to discuss at the lunch table.

Comment: i just wanted to thank you guys for being my "go to" on all of
the (most of the ) bs email hoaxes i get daily. i would love if you could
cut through all of the ads, both self congratulatory and negative, and
give up the straight talk about the presidential candidates too.

Comment: Snopes raided by FBI : http://www.dailysquib.co.uk/?c=117&a=1278

Thank goodnes you were able to make bail and are operational today.
Imagine, I would not have been able to decide for myself if Senator Obama
was holding a telephone upside down !!

Please, be more carful in the future not to get caught again.
