What's up with the title. I bet you read it and then raised an eyebrow thinking that this is a chain mail of some sort.
God I hate those, don't you?!?
It'll starts like an interesting story about a tragic love, accident, charity, or the religions and then after reading thru it it will ask you to send it to a number of people to avoid the curse that was attached to that mail. Bloody good for nothing chaps who made this may be laughing that their so called curse is making it's way thru the net flooding forums, emails and personal net spaces.
What's interesting though is that regardless how idiotic an email is we still read it and do as it says(i.e send it to 10 people...). Is it out of fear or anxiety that the said curse will take effect once we break the chain? Chain letters have been around as far back as I can remember. Back in high school where bored students abound does this kind of things. It may be acceptable to see that the sender is just a youngster but what ticks me off is that adults does the same and not only that they have multiple posts of the mail on one thread. I mean c'mon. I know there's freedom of speech but this is ridiculous. This is no longer freedom this is abuse. I guess it's the innate reaction every human has that does what we are told. Although for me breaking rules is not as fun as obeying them so why not not obey it and just ignore it so the hype will just die a natural death.
Also, it's sad that they actually use innocent photographs from the net to further make their letters appealing and believable and even use religious figures to corner the receipient and thus maximize the email that is sent through out. How many times have you cleaned you mailbox of these mails only to be filled with another hundred more. It actually amazes me jhow persisten these people are. You gotta ask don't they have better things to do than sit there in their sorry orroms and make stuff like these? There's a whole world out there it wouldn't hurt you to get out and get a life.
With respect(or the lack of it) to the topic I'll end this here with a note:
"if you don't repost/forward this in less than a gazillion folks in 5 seconds..... nothing absolutely nothing will happen to you.
Cheers!
