You know those things that you have to pass on to people or else something bad will happen like, "You'll never be kissed!" or "Your penis will fall off!". These are all big lies. They're not God, so how can they make that happen to you? Not sending chain letters to a certain amount of people will not do you harm. All it does when you do it is annoy people, because if they don't it will "Effect their lives!!"
Here is the most common Chain Letters:
The "Poem Chain Letter"
These will have ridiculously long poems you do not wish to read, so you scroll down, and then it says to pass it on to make people suffer. Most of these have to do with God or something religous, so if you don't pass it on, you're "Unreligious." We go to church to learn about that stuff, and what if someone on your list didn't believe in God? I'd be annoyed too.
The "Wish Chain Letter"
These are where you make a wish while reading them, and then you must pass it on for it to come true. I wished for world domination and passed it on. It didn't come true.
The "Creepy Pedifile/Rapist Chain Letter"
These people claim that a person killed over 10 people and are still getting away with it. These most likely have a link to their MySpace profile. Police could use that to track him down if he killed anyone. Use your brains people. The people that spread these are most likely angry at their friends, so they'll make up lies about them for revenge.
The "Something Will Pop-Up On Your Screen If You Send This Chain Letter"
The entire letter will talk about how something cool will appear on your screen if you pass it around. If you're the typical moron who doesn't know their way around the internet, you send this to a whole bunch of people. Where's the surprise? There's none. You've been tricked in sending spam to people, and now more people will do the same.
The "Check This Cartoon Out Chain Letter"
These have links to websites that have animated Flash cartoons on them. Of course, to get to the cartoon, you must first fight through all the seizure flashy pop-up ads first. Then once the cartoon is playing, you notice that this is another cliche' annoying cartoons dancing to horrible re-makes of songs you hate.
Note To MySpace Users:
STOP SPAMMING MY BULLITEN BOARD WITH YOUR CRAP. It's annoying. I read bullitens for news on bands and anything I want to read, but first I have to go through you junk to get to it. Chain Letters are the worst thing to have ever been invented and are a waste of time. If you have nothing better to do than to answer to them and pass them around, you're a sad person. Do something constructive like playing a game or actually HANGING OUT with your friends instead of sending crap messages to your friends.
Sorry to be so honest.
Though it's like the chain letters, if you feel this way, pass this around. Nothing bad will happen to you if you don't. You can send it to only 2 people or even 50 if you feel like it. Help stop spam by telling people how you feel about it. You may feel free to customize your "Note To MySpace Users" to what you want to say to others. Be sure to make the Subject "I HATE CHAIN LETTERS." or if you really want to be sneaky, put it to something else that would catch someone else's eye.
Typed that myself. Heh. :3
