Ruin Your Friends' Lives

This story was found at Barstoolsports.com.

A San Francisco organization has put up a website that allows a person to send an ANONYMOUS message to sexual partners, informing them that they need to get test for STD's. Go ahead. Read that again. I'm actually surprised that it took this long for a website like this to appear.

In the perfect world - one without people who would abuse this site and send STD-grams to people who do not have STD's - this is a great idea. Unfortunately, we live in the land of shows like Jackass and Punk'd, and I'm willing to bet the number of prank STD-grams will vastly outnumber the number of real STD-grams. Hell, I've already sent 10 prank STD-grams.

Just kidding. I have not sent any STD-grams. I guess looking at the big picture, if the website at least slows down the spread of STD'd, then it's worth the millions of people who are going to be thrown into a mild panic when they get a fake notification.

Nonetheless, for purely educational purposes, click here to go to the STD-notification website. Regardless of how funny it will be, D&F does not condone sending your friends fake STD notifications. And we certainly do not want you to CC their significant others. That is irresponsible....and mean.
