Humor on the net: The Jackass Hook

People love a jackass. They love to talk about jackasses. And even more, they love to show other people how much of a jackass some one is. They will tell their friends. They will tell their family. They will post links on message boards pointing at the jackass. And that’s where it comes in. The Jackass hook. An unreal amount of links from people who want nothing more than to tell other people about how much they hate you.
