Forward this if you love Jesus I have a potential awkward situation ahead of me today. About two months ago I snapped after receiving the umpteeth stupid email from a "friend". I truly consider this woman a friend. She is a member of my Scottish Terrier club and actually quite sweet. Unfortunately she doesn't understand the proper use of email. We all know someone like this. In fact, I know a handful. They still send me emails on a weekly basis that require some action from me to avoid bad luck, prove I am a friend, see something "so funny!" appear on my screen or some other such nonsense. I have even received an email from a usually intelligent person claiming I had to forward the email to at least 10 people AND back to them to prove I love Jesus. What is my potentially awkward situation? I am leaving for a dog show in about an hour and the woman that sent me the message below will be there: ~~ Subject: Fwd: Fwd: Fwd: I need this back, I love this little guy!  You have been Tagged by the Froggy, which means you are a great friend!! You will Have Good Luck For Two Years if you send this to 8 people or more. And if this is sent back to you then you know that you are a true Friend... You must send it in 5 minutes or your good luck will be broken ~~ Note: The font in this email was about 36 and GREEN. My response to this complete display of stupidity was: I am 47 years old and I do not send frogs to people to prove I am their friend or that I love them. This was apparently taken as a rude response because she hasn't spoken to me since. (And I do not equate that with my good luck being broken) I love receiving email, I truly do. Just don't send me an email that requires that I must prove something. All it will prove is that you may never hear from me again. Vic set it free at 11:02 AM |
