hhehehehehehe....since we're on a personal pet peeves kick.....

Don't you just ~love~ those e-mails that co-workers send around that say "pass this on to 10 people and something great will happen"? Or "Do not delete or you will have bad luck for a zillion years"?

And my personal favorite..."forward this and $1 will be sent to < insert charity org here >".*groan*

However, I do delight in replying to all whenever I receive an urban legend being passed around and get to copy and paste the appropriate snopes link to refute it. Makes the sender think twice before sending anything with my name in the CC list. *grin*

hehehe... I also hate it when people spam the all-company list with their "critical virus warning" that is, of course, yet another hoax. [sigh]

Or better yet... the people that send me an *urgent* message that they just found out that there's this "new" thing running around on email that has something to do with some Nigerian bank and -- gasp-- it's a scam! "You simply MUST warn everybody about this! How come the IT department isn't warning us about these things?"

[sigh]

I see dumb people.
