I put it in the topics.

On second thought, you put Humor in the title too. I saw it. But then it quickly and mysteriously disappeared. So I'm guessing that some lib operative hacked into your post.

At least that's the story you should stick with.

Many a true word spoken in jest...

What? This isn’t real? Oh crap...I just mailed all of my gold off to the government because I didn’t want to be in violation of the law.

“Wait a minute, Mr Postman...”

It's a very sorry state of affairs when you might possibly think this is real. A sign of the times (sigh).

Would Obama really do this to his rapper buddies?

Mr. T isn't happy!

People once actually thought like that...that having more gold in circulation improved an economy, while hoarding gold hurt it.

Of course, that hasn’t been accurate since the invention of credit, but people held onto that mindset for a long time after.

It’s a thing.

But it's:

A) Made up

B) Years old

So I'm wondering, why is it 'a thing' to post misinformation on FR?

Recently it has become very difficult to tell the difference between a joke and actual reality.

Especially when Laz starts a thread. Just sayin'.....

I knew right off the bat this was satire when it said a quarter ounce, which isn’t much.

Screw ‘em!

Its good for your constitution to be made aware that you are flying off the handle irrationally at something that another human intentionally misled you on.

Besides, I just figured that this was a long lost part of ObammyDontCare that just got implemented and, Yes, FINALLY, I can say that I am an official criminal in the eyes of my government.

Well, I knew it was satire. Otherwise the mint wouldn't be selling 1 ounce proof gold coins, uncirculated gold coins, and bullion coins (unless they were just compiling a 'gotcha' list.

Unfortunately, all my gold sank in the back yard, right where I want to build a root cellar. I'm not exactly sure where, but I could narrow it down to about 16X20 ft. so they can dig for it...

Why do you need to look at a keyword when every third post says it?

It is if you are talking black tar heroin.

Laz, it looks like some FReepers need stress-free safe space. Even make-believe can create untold anxiety levels.

Remember “War of The Worlds”?

;^)

Really, it took me a few panicky seconds to figure out it was satire. With Obama it’s hard to tell the difference between satire and reality.

After Bambi gets past my defenses he can have my gold.
