Chain Letters

I hate e-mail spam, I mean I hate it with a fuckin' passion. Every time I get some spam I want to smash my computer with a hammer. But the absolute worst spam I get are those annoying chain letter messages that say you have to send the e-mail to some amount of people and something good will happen and/or if you break the chain something unlucky will happen.

Who the fuck is gullible enough to fall for that crap?

I don't care if the letter has relgious overtones, has to do with your love life, or (god forbid) harkins back to 9/11; NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN! SERIOUSLY, STOP DOING BEING SO DUMB!

This isn't just in e-mails either. I see it on YouTube, MySpace, and even Facebook every now-and-then. It seems to be getting pretty rediculous.

I'm not a very superstitious person already. I don't own any lucky charms or throw money into a fountain to make a wish. The only thing I do for luck is throw some salt over my shoulder if I spill some. Other than that, nothing. Nada. Zip.

I don't believe in fate, or destiny, or that there is any all poweful force that controls our futures. Your life is what you make it. No stupid chain letter or belief in superstition is going to change that.

Maybe if the the world grew up a bit and stopped believing in superstitious crap, everyone might be a bit better off and we can start dealing with the important things in our world.

Chain letters can eat a dick.
