h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Did you get the one about Mikey, the little boy in the Life Cereal commercial.
Supposedly, when he had gotten older and wasn't in the commercials any more, he ate Pop Rocks and while they were still in his mouth (or he swallowed them if you want to be more graphic) and drank some Coca-Cola. The chemical reaction caused an explosion which either blew his head off or caused his stomach to explode depending on the version.

Very popular story! And I don't think the least bit true...
A real classic!!

Also, what about one of the little girls who played Cindy Brady on the Brady Bunch TV show from the 70s. She supposed,ly went into the hardcore porn business after the show was cancelled. Particularly gross versions of this legend add that that is how the father of the Brady Bunch got AIDS and died.

Enjoy!!

I'm familiar with the Mikey legend...I even alluded to it in one of the threads. I considered adding it myself, but the project was already rather huuge, since I ended up adding quite a few, as well as editing all the others. It is incredibly untrue, as Mikey is still alive and well.

I've also heard the Cindy Brady story...apparently, there was a porn star who bore a striking resemblance to her, but was not, in fact, her. Both of these will make excellent additions to the collection (Mikey can go to biological problems...I'll stick the Slutty Cindy story somewhere), but not in their present forms. I'm a bit too lazy to make a nice story out of them...so how 'bout it? Do you want the job? You'll receive full credit, of course.

I'll do it, you smooth-talking devil...

But I won't get to it until Tuesday, I've got some subbing to do over the weekend and the Backlog must take priority!

No hurries, dude. There's a story that has been languishing in the forums for a week already. Whenever I get yours, I'll edit the lot and add them all in one shot.

I'm off to try out my newfound smooth-talking powers on the ladies...seeya!

How'd it go with these new "powers" and where did you obtain these powers. With a wife and two daughters, I could surely use all the smoth talking to ladies powers I can get...

I didn't know I had smooth talking powers until they worked on you. I went out this weekend, though, and I think I broke them, or something. Or maybe they only work on dudes (there's a scary thought). I just don't get it, I could talk you into doing work, but I couldn't talk any chicks into sex...

As I haven't done any of the aforementioned work yet, one could surmise that these"powers" may not work at all...
