Who Will Pray For The Dog With Ham On His Face?

Human hearts bleed for those poor innocent animals who are burned trying to help their humans, and human blood starts to boil when somebody posts a fake animal story online to garner sympathy or donations.

But what happens when the story is simply a harmless joke Facebookers felt was in poor taste? People get all kinds of mad anyway, because the internet.

It all started when Stephen Roseman slapped a piece of ham on his dog's face and snapped a pic, posting it to Facebook with a silly caption asking people to pray for his dog via likes and shares.

A silly pic posted by a playful dog owner quickly became a comment crapstorm simply because of what Stephen wrote, or more precisely, because people believed what he wrote.

The post got over 100,000 shares and brought the craftiest and most ham fisted commenters out of the woodwork to weigh in on the issue.

However, the real problem is that people are far too willing to believe everything they see posted online, and yet they blame the original poster for "deceiving" them when even a three-year-old can tell it's a fake.
