#006: Forwarded E-Mails
It's lame when you see that there's new mail in your inbox, get all excited, and then realise it's of absolutely no interest. It's just a special offer from a website you ordered a Christmas present from last year or something like Hotmail telling me about how I should pay for a free account. Yeah, no thanks. However, now and then, you will get a real email from a real friend which is just as pointless. I'm talking, of course, about forwarded e-mails. There's usually the warning sign of an email title like "LOL YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS" or "SOMETHING FOR THE GUYS/GIRLS!!". After scrolling past several thousand email addresses that have already 'enjoyed' this email, you get to the payload - and how disappointing it always is. If you're lucky it will be a mildly amusing photoshopped picture. If not, it'll be some rant about how love is all around or how peace is like THE BEST, written by someone in a dead end office job somewhere. Either way, if you have any sense you'll delete it faster than you can say "DELORTED" because these things have all the intellectual worth of a raisin. And not even one of those California Raisins. Just a regular, dumb raisin. If you are one of those people who actually does the forwarding, stop. If you want some attention, think of something entertaining yourself, rather than regurgitating someone else's crap.
