Urban Legends
I'm ashamed to admit it, but I fell for the "Bob Holness played the saxophone on Gerry Rafferty's Baker Street" story some years back. It just seemed so right. I still want it to be true.
What have you fallen for, or even better, what legends have you started?

one of mine
I convinced a friend that smoking feels good after a meal cos it activates the blood flow around your body to bring it back down to a relaxed state. It might have some element of truth in it...
Common ones that many people seem to believe:
Certain shampoos make your hair 80% stronger. You see the wankers on the adverts pulling their hair and it doesn't break or come out? Well, shit, neither does mine even if I use own-brand shampoo.
Razor blades that leave your skin smoother than others cos they have 3 or more blades. Well, big fucking deal. It doesn't stop your hair growing back and being noticeable again within a few hours.
