I saw the pic when it was posted. Saw nothing wrong. Giant cup on the car. So what?
Pic of a Hasidic man and a woman smoking in a designated smoking area in relatively close proximity. Not a big deal as others have mentioned but inappropriate to post as the man might be a real life individual who lives on this earth.
If you don't care why would you comment?

I just spoke with Menachem Dukes. Very nice guy. The story is completely made up.  A Jewish woman in Sacramento took a picture of his passport and made up the story and is circulating. Hes actually named after Menachem Begin and his twin brother is named after Anwar Sadat. Touching if you ask me. 

Anyway, we should help him. Can someone recommend a cheap/free credit monitoring service that I can give him?  It's the least we can do.
But how can we believe you?

Look at his avatar.  He loves all and likes to help.

You can check out the twin bro part by googling each of the family members of Menachem to see if there is a 25 yr old boy relative.

To clarify: I believe him based on his post history, but when trying to dispel the myth going on, why would someone believe me quoting a random dude on DansDeals?

As an aside, interesting you would bring up his avatar. It isn't a real picture - both those kids are Jewish. I'll try dig up the story. ETA: http://www.timesofisrael.com/famous-coexistence-pic-outed-as-fake/

Don't get me started on his avatar...
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

You shouldn't. You should always use critical thinking.

Entirely possible, but the Mandela question is dealt with at least

This is the same explanation that he told me last night.  I believe that Facebook conversation to be authentic. If you google Menachem Shaka Dukes you'll see that they are twins.

And Nebuch the guy is really upset about his passport info going public although it was really dumb of him to let that lady take a picture of it.

I used that function many times and never experienced anything you describe. How did it work?
Sorry for responding so late....

It was simple you just never realized it. Lets say you had booked an award to Europe on UA metal for 57.5k and after it was ticketed you went to change flights and you selected say LH F when you checked out it prices out as the old award chart.
You can say what you think when you think what you say.

I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Maybe it's because he spelled internet wrong.  And thanks for making me read the whole things.  You should have written "last paragraph" at the top lol.
