I thought if I said 'hell' a certain amount of times I would go there. Turns out all I had to do was apply and they pay mw to go there.

@Nebula :D I had something similar, someone convinced me that if I call a certain phone number at midnight, there would be horrific events. Nothing more specific, just "horrific events". Kids are stupid ;)
