Once, I started a rumour about myself, just as a social experiment. I only told one person at the party I was at. Ten minutes later, someone who wasn’t even there was texting me to ask if it was true. Another friend ignored me all night because I never “told her”.
Don’t mess with rumours; they spread faster than fire and you’re gonna struggle to fan them out
Edit: To clarify, the one friend I told, knew it wasn’t true. The friend “gossiped” it to others. We were in on it together. God I was a horrible person for that half hour.

Dude looks like that muppet with the fish, Lou Zealand.
Edit: apparently it's Lew. Of course.
