I found this article posted on facebook. I think it's about time someone realized this. Do you think this will lead to stopping those dreadful surveys?

I love gomerblog but unfortunately it is a satire site nothing is real about the story

Hmmm....what gave it away? The fact that the CEO of "Prezz Ganey" is named Hugeprick?

Hilarious!

But so true. :yes:

Gomerblog is hilarious. Please remember it is satire. I think the comments people leave are even funnier than the article sometimes (because people do not know what a satire is).

This one is funny... "Five rights of food administration"

To tell the truth, I really thought it was true! I feel pretty stupid!

Don't worry too much, this is very close to the truth. Here in the UK we had a GP (family doctor) who was absolutely loved by his patients. It is unknown how many people he killed but it was at least 250 but his patients would not hear a word said against him.

Google Harold Shipman.

Don't feel stupid. Even though it is written as satire, there is truth mixed in there!

Unfortunately, there IS a lot of truth there. I guess that's why I believed it. I'd never seen the site gomerblog before.

If I had a dime for every time someone posted an Onion article on FB, thinking it was true...

I have laughed till tears are falling down my face. I can see that GomerBlog is going to become one of the sites I fondly call my internet time sucks because I spend way too much time there.
