see through prom dress

I've read some pretty asinine things about Hurricane Irma over the last few days that people actually believe. These are just some and I am sure there are tons more out there.

* Hollywood black magic cast 2 years ago caused the hurricane.
* It is God's revenge for voting FOR {fill in the blank}
* It is God's revenge for voting AGAINST {fill in the blank} ...
* It is the Earth's revenge for {fill in the blank}
* 9/11 numerology predicted it (spurious math involved)
* Bible numerology predicted it (spurious math involved)
* Combine dates of previous hurricanes and do more spurious math to arrive at whatever numerology fits your crack-pot number.
* You can save your valuables by putting them your dishwasher. EVERYONE! Investigate this stuff on Snopes or Hoax-Slayer FIRST before sharing it along.
* Hotels HAVE to allow pets during hurricanes. Y'all see the FEMA Hurricane Irma Rumor Control page. Seriously.
* That the rest of the country thinks that we actually BELIEVE that if we point our fans at, wave around flip-flops, throw coconut oil at, throw beer cans at, (etc) the hurricane that it will go away. DAMN!. We DO NOT believe that, but when people are under intense stress we need to have an outlet for that stress. see through prom dress
* That the rest of the country thinks we are NOT obsessively watching this hurricane.

So, what can you really do to help?
* Don't share mis-information. Investigate everything first.
* Don't send your old stuff to us. We are not a goodwill drop-off location. We DO NOT need to waste resources on sorting and storing useless stuff. (Seriously, people sent prom dresses to Houston. Are you kidding me? This is NOT helping.)
* Donate to reputable charities. Investigate them properly.
* Offer your skills to the affected areas.
* Keep your political agendas out of this. We will need meaningful help.
