Somebody misprinted a flier for a local town meeting.. the email was SUPPOSED to be congresman.<myname>@gmail.com but instead it got cut off to just <myname>@gmail.com. I started getting a wave of hate mail asking how I could hate firemen so much! At first I couldn't figure out what was happening but eventually I devised that the town had gone broke (this was 2009) and needed to lay off a bunch of workers, including firemen. A coworker convinced me to try and see what the most outlandish thing I could say and still be believed was. Some of the toppers: 1) I don't know why we need firemen. My has has never even caught fire! 2) My wife cheated on me once with a fireman and now I am getting my revenge! 3) I believe in privatizing fire service, when the need arises the market will find a solution!
