We’ve all been a victim to this pointless annoyance, people do it everyday, I for one am against it but this is the only way available to express my anger. What am I talking about? Forwards! Fwd’s! Why do I receive endless amounts of E-mails titled something like “Fwd: Sssooo funny, you have to see this” NO I DON’T!!!! The E-mail is a waste of time, and space! Its very existence annoys me! If I then decide to open it (for some bizarre reason) I find the following…

*Scrolled down for bout ten minutes*

And that’s it! Now I’m told that if I don’t forward this message to 276 people then I’m doomed to wander the earth alone or my true love wont even look at me or my pet cat molly will get trapped in the washing machine. What posses these people to create these bloody forwards!? And why, why if you’ve read the forward do you then send it to me? Surly you don’t believe that you have too or the orphan in the middle of nowhere won’t get the bicycle because you broke the chain before it reached 200000000? Get real! Its just been made up by someone who was incredibly bored and wanted to make you feel guilty! Now im not just having a moan, as Martin Luther once said, I have a dream, STOP FORWARDS. Lets unite; stick together against the aggravating mail that clutters our inbox’s! We can do it, eliminate the messages travelling around that are “Sssooo funny!” lets destroy them! Are you with me?
Now if you don’t reply to this Forum then you pet gerbil Harold will spontaneously combust, your mums arms will drop off while she is washing up, a young boy in Czechoslovakia wont gat the Christmas he dreamt of (beside the fact its January and this boy doesn’t even know about the Forum) and you will wake up tomorrow in the Sahara desert!

I hate the love ones:

If you send this to more than 10 people, your true love will come to you.
