Yeah...like this whole Oak Island thing. A friend of mine was going on and on about all of the mysteries and pirates and aliens and Yetis and everything associated with this island and I was like, "Uh...I've never heard of this - what are you talking about?".
A quick google shows that it is basically a made up story for a TV "reality" series built off of giant leaps of faith and gullible people.
But, mermaids are real. I saw that on a TV show once.
