Let's Give Them Something to Talk About

When I was younger, I lived in a much smaller city.

A smaller city with a lot of big mouths, or so it seemed to me.

I kept hearing gossip about myself, and it started to get on my nerves. Instead of starting a fight with someone, or trying to combat whatever was being said about me that was not true, I decided to liven things up a bit. I started saying crazy things to plant seeds that would cause rumors. I wanted to see how long it would take to get around, and how much ridiculousness people were actually willing to believe (and repeat!).
