For people whose lives are bleak, this might give them some hope.
IMO to give someone false hope is cruel. Some would disagree.

(CNN) -- The perils of online dating are well-documented. But the mantle of absurdity in dating folklore might now belong to a Los Angeles-area man, and it's for where his online flame turned up: behind his mantel.
Genoveva Nunez-Figueroa had to be rescued over the weekend after becoming stuck inside of the chimney at a home in Thousand Oaks, California.
According to the Ventura County Sheriff's Office, neighbors called police shortly before dawn Sunday to report the sound of a woman crying in the area.
When they arrived, they found the source of those cries, and then "carefully dismantled" the chimney brick by brick in order to free the spurned and quite sooty 30-year-old.
