All the ads on urban dictionary. legit saw one that said "he posted this picture of his dog, and people immediately called the police." what actually happened was some guy started posting pics of his dog, and people loved it. eventually the the police saw it and they thought his dog was a bulldog and bulldogs were illegal in his town. they told him that he can't have that dog in the town but then turns out it wasn't a bulldog and everything was fine.
