I think the quote refers to the emails that <i>say</i> "snopes says this is true", and then you check snopes and it's seven-year-old bullshit.

It's really a testimonial to the success of snopes that people lie about it like that. Nobody would bother to falsely cite, e.g., Politifact.

It occurs to me that we need a combined form of ROTFLMAO and FFS, just for you to use on such occasions.

Any Suggestions?

Why else would God let you think it?
