Of course, in today's world of fake news, and so many people believing everything that they read on the Internet, I can't help thinking that it is just as well we have Snopes on hand to sort out the urban myths running wild.

There are lots of urban myths and hoaxes that regularly circulate on the Internet and FaceBook - and they seem to just keep looping around. Sometimes they undergo a slight mutation as someone updates them, but mainly, they just keep on going.
The best way to check these sort of facts is to run it through snopes.com which is a independent fact checking site.

Probably a good site to pass onto your students - and your friends.
