I just read all of your posts and from what you all said it probably is someone poking fun of ignorant people who actually do this. I don't know for certain if it was a "joke," but I do think it is now. When I first read it I thought it was ridiculous (if it were true)...my head wasn't in the right place last night
Anyway, with all your explanations I can see the true meaning of this person's post. Thanks!
