I can't believe we're having the conversation again. Listen to me, I sound like a mother who has to scold her 8-year-old son for not peeing on the toilet seat; but seriously, we need to have a talk about sharing fake news on social media. Just don't.

A story from the World News Daily Report has been shared on Facebook and much like the news stories that say Johnny Depp is moving to Rockford and Vin Diesel wants to retire here, it's not real.

According to this satirical news site,

45-year old Janice Smith was arrested this morning by officers of the Detroit Police Department, for allegedly capturing numerous squirrels and training them to attack her former lover.

Smith was supposedly a former circus animal trainer who would cheer the squirrels on from behind some bushes as they attacked her ex. Really? C'mon.

Fearing for his safety, the man reached out to local authorities who arrested Smith and she's apparently facing a variety of criminal charges and will need to undergo a psychological evaluation.

She's obviously crazy and maybe we all are for believing that this story is actually true; a story we now all wish was.
