Another ridicules, unverified story being passed along by morons using the internet.

It's OK to ask questions. It's OK to ask for clarification. I expect the news media outlets to do a better job of verifying their stories BEFORE they publish their chosen stories.

You would think people would be smarter but nope, people automatically take as gospel 'facts' they read online.

You can stop faked and hoax story on the Internet and even the International News Agency like BBC, CNN, AP and Reuters are publishing faked and hoax story for promoting to sell their news.

Trump must read such news sources. Now I understand why he would only eat Mac burgers here.

I will no longer be cursing people anywhere in the world with the phrase, "bite me". It may be falsely interpreted as consent!

In 2012 Mao Sugiyama, 22, who is asexual, had voluntarily undergone surgery to have his genitals removed which he took home frozen and later served them to diners at ¥20,000 a head.

Yes, but did he serve them correctly with fava beans and a nice Chianti? Or was it Pocky and a beaujolais nouveau?

Of course it was sheer nonsense.

But is this fake news:?

As is the thought of a witch abducting two German children in the forest and eating them.

But... but I thought they shoved her in the oven, stole her treasure, escaped and lived happily ever after.

Are you saying they all lied to me?

I remember hearing people talking about this awhile ago and was amazed that anyone would think it's a true story, the fact that the bloody embassy has to make a statement shows you how far we've fallen...

True or not, it's a damn scary thought.

As is the thought of a witch abducting two German children in the forest and eating them.

Or, a wolf disguised as an old woman killing the real old woman and her granddaughter.

But, I don't worry too much about those happening either.

Well, unless you get a bowl of ramen with the top of somebody’s finger in it, as happened a few months ago, of course.

But my cousin's nephew's roommate's sister shared it on Facebook, it must be true!
