SUCKED IN

[hoveringsombrero]

So, in case you've been under a rock that doesn't include youtube,
and enjoy crazy Internet conspiracy/fakery.

I introduce to you Lonelygirl15, Bree,
purportedly a 16 year old homeschooled girl in a strict,
somehow Crowley associated religion.

This is the first video, if you're new to this start here.

[Error: unknown template 'video']

And then continue in order, here's her youtube profile if you couldn't figure it out.

Once Daniel is introduced into the storyline he has response videos,
his youtube profile is here.

Now, if you choose to suspend disbelief and believe that a 16 and 17 year old,
are somehow producing snazzy, well lit, with near perfect sound, videos,
with an orbit quickcam and a handheld dv camera, then just enjoy the story.

If you'd like to jump into the fray of the whole lost experience-esque conspiracy game behind it,
There is a fan forum at lonelygirl15 dot com

In which this post in particular lists the popular theories to date.

If you get into it, once you do, you'll see that this has gone way passed "is it real"
into "what is the purpose behind it/the storyline?"

If you're still skeptical, and/or just want my reasons on why I believe it to be staged, respond and ask, and I'll tell.

Yes, one of the theories is that it's viral marketing for the music,
allegedly the bands have been contacted and claim no association.

And yeah she mentioned in youtube comments that they believe in evolution.
I think the "proving science wrong" ones are very tongue in cheek, as she usually disproves nothing.

I'm curious as to the motavation behind it of course, but yes mostly just entertained. She's terribly cute, it's very well done, and they keep the storyline going well.

I'm hoping the "cassie" angle will pan out more.
