[BeingBetter]

While googling, this thread made me go from

"Hahaha who's dumb enough to believe in urban myths"
"Haha well damn I believed that one"
"Well goddamn thats about 5 I belived......"
"Get the fukk outta here, 10 !!!"
"ALL THOSE STORIES WEREN'T REAL !?!?!?!?!"
"My life is a lie."

Breh I’m a EMT( not my career but I have my certification) we not looking at your license and shyt if we working trying to bring you back

Half the time the patient has no ID/Wallet on them in the first place. Just think if you get hit by a car or some other traumatic injury your pants and all that are getting tore off anyway during examination.

You know what’s funny.... and thanks for the info.....

It’s not even a black myth that got me. I remember being a kid and watching MASH. Soldier gets wounded but doesn’t die. Another boy gets wounded but doesn’t die. But the second one could live if the first one died and gave up the organs

Had the preacher in there PRAYING that the lord take the one first quickly so the second could live. I wrote that shyt off from that day forth.


Another “myth” or maybe not...... that EMTs or nurses/doctors will check you for an insurance card and if you don’t have one, it’s not on you, you getting that basic treatment, maybe none at all if they don’t work with it.

Im 21 years old, my best friend & I have been super tight since first grade of elementary school. We both grew up watching all kind of horror movies together and are big fans of the genre. So of course we seen candyman & know about that bloody mary myth and to this day we both will 100% never try this out
Every now & then when we meet up one of us brings it up and is like

„Would you ever say bloody mary 3x in the mirror ? „


„ pass, what about you?“



„ hell no, I dont wanna die“

-You gonna get rich joining amway, primerica or some mlm scheme

-you gonna get rich because you listen to some conscious scammer who takes pictures next to renter cars

-you can fix your credit overnight by paying some dude $1500

Black people being kidnapped to harvest melanin.
John F. Kennedy was pro-civil rights.
The government killed Malcolm X, and not the Nation of Islam.
Tommy Hilfiger didn't want Black people wearing his clothes.
The crack epidemic ruined Black neighborhoods, and not the deindustrialization, mass police raids, and mass-incarceration that occurred before, during, and after.
Gangs formed to protect the Black community from the White community.

Crack did ruin black neighborhoods

Being big boned
Throwing salt on a broom for good luck( or is it spitting? )

I worked in so many kitchens that believed if somebody sweeps your feet and you don't spit on the broom your going to jail tomorrow. I thought it was only a new orelans thing but it was the same in Alabama too
