    I hate chain mail. Nuf' said.

    Actually, not nuf' said. I don't understand why people post the chain mail they get in their random thoughts. I get these messages once every few months and when I see it , I try to go about my policy of delete on sight no matter who sent it but it's really hard. What draws people to this stuff. I'll find my self half way through long story about some girl and her boy friend who died in a car accident and kill the girl's parents in the car ahead. And then I'll snap myself out of it and wonder what the hell I just read.

    The thing I love the most about chain mail is that last doomsday effect line. "If you don't send this to 15 of your friends you will die!" I've never actually sent a chain letter anywhere and I've never had anything mention in the letter happen to me. Are you people REALLY that stupid? Do you honestly believe that you will DIE if you don't send this crap to 15 of your friends???

    So lets here it. How many of you are sensible people who know the difference between real and fake, or are you like most people who just send this crap across the country side?

    The ironic thing is, I saw this same thing a bulletin on Myspace, and it said if you didn't repost it 3 times within the hour, a small girl would appear under your bed and pull you into the mattress.

    You're a liar. LIAR!

      I send every chain mail I've ever gotten to everyone I can get find on buddy lists, email lists, and my phonebook. I refuse to be killed for something as simple as not forwarding chain mail.

        What. My rant on hating chain mail? If that's the case I'll tell you right now I hate myspace and would never touch the place. But that's a different story. And if not then that's pretty weird. And whose a liar? I'm sorry but your entire post is just confusing to me.

        And that's just like wow. I don't see how you can do it.

            I'm just saying, some guy named "Carlin" on MySpace posted a bulletin exactly like this.

            Maybe there are outside forces at work...

                Around 3 days ago. I would get you the date/time, but it's been pushed off my bulletin list already.

                      He's gonna get banned sooner or later. He's posted WAY TOO many threads. They're really annoying.

                        Yeah. Those all may be chain mail and they may be annoying to some people. But at least, at the very LEAST, they aren't following the same format of, "you die if you don't send". And they're kind of fun to read because you learn something new.

                          If I die, I want it to be something epic like a bear shooting me with a grappling hook and fishing for sharks with my body, not some stupid dead chick being like 'Boo you're dead."

                            Haha. Well I see where you're coming from but I would like to live out my life instead of dieing young and have it be the fault of email.
