I got a sappy "inspirational" email this morning about an old woman who went to college, want me to send it to ya?

At least all my friends have taken me out of consideration for all those, "forward this hug to all of your friends and maybe it will come back to you" emails.

I called them "Manually operated email viruses"

Weren't you supposed to send it to all your friends???? And if you don't, you'll be cursed for seven years? If you do, God will bless you for seven years!

ROFLOL

I used to get soo much of that stuff, but people figured out I didn't like it too, I guess because it has tapered off. A good thing too, I'm so inspired I can hardly stand myself.

Whenever I get one of those "inspirational" e-mails, I reply to all with:

WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYY? PLEASE! MAKE IT STOP!

They usually stop after a few responses like that!

One friend of my sister's named Patty was infamous for sending a bunch of these things out almost every day. We dubbed her "Patt-WHHHHHHHHHYYYYY!?" *laughing*

Or those e-mails that give a sappy poem about friendship. "Send this off to 10 of your friends and if you get this back then you know you are loved" or some nonsense like that. And if my friends believed that, then they would think I don't love them because I always delete those without opening them. I hate those types of e-mails!
