The junk about the bloody hand that was still attached to the back bumper, when kids were parked a a lover's lane. My dad used to tell this one. I guess it never occurred to him that with as many potholes there were in town, the 2nd or 3rd bump, that joker would have fallen off, way before we made it back to the house.
They must think we are so dumb!

The ones about LSD tattoos aimed at getting children hooked on the drug are amongst the dumbest I've ever heard. That idiotic urban legend has persisted for decades. Perhaps even dumber was a variation that claimed that drug dealers were painting liquid LSD onto the walls of the toilets at children's schools to get the children high and hooked. The latter presumably based on the myth that LSD can be absorbed through the skin.

Has to be the one where the couple come home and find their large dog,(usually a Rottweiler or German Shepherd) in an agitated state and they follow a trail of blood spots from the window sill along walkway to street....later they let dog outside for his nightly run and they hear him throwing up, they are not overly concerned until they hear news report on TV that a man wandered in to local hospital with severe blood loss and missing two fingers from a mangled hand! they go out and look and sure enough! Fido had puked up the mans fingers!!

The dog that was as big as a horse. I really believed that picture. It looked like it.
That goes to show us that they can tell us anything and make us believe that it is true on these computers. I saw ears of corn with rooster heads.
We could believe a picture before but now we can't even believe that.
What about FEMA not letting reporters ask questions?
We are fed what the government wants us to hear.

There's a question up in another area right now asking if you can clear up acne with Windex. I'd call that a pretty dumb urban legend.

This one happened in Bombay and believe it or not the entire city was scared, I mean all kids. The was this rumor of a three headed banshee roaming around town and kidnapping children by posing as their mother! She was even supposed to be cutting off telephone and cable TV connections of Entire Neighborhoods! I was one of those terrified kids too but that was over 10 years ago. I laugh about it now but a lot of us had turned into insomniacs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A lady goes to south America on a vacation, while she is there she adopts a small stray dog and sneaks it back to the states in her carry on bag- when she arrives she takes the dog to her vet for vaccinations. The vet takes the dog away immediatly to a secluded room, returns moments later and says "I'm sorry maam, but I had to put your animal down" "It wasn't a dog- it was a giant rat" (Now thats dumb!!!)

Modern day urban legend.
About the girls who watched the Chppendales men strippers, and one got an infection when he threw his underwear at her.
Wouldn't happen.
