Chain Letters, Curses your friends
Let me think about this, Chain letters… A kind of letter which people send it to their friends, then their friends forward it to their other friends, and so on. Nowadays people do this not only by a letter or email, they have started to do this on other medias such as Yahoo Messenger, Friendster bulletin board, SMS, etc. So what’s the problem? People have done that for years.
The problem is…
Years ago, I got angry, yelling and shouting (well actually it’s not a real shouting anyway, I just typed them all in capital words
) in my mailing list group because my friends kept forwarding junks good article by emails. It is not the article that I hate about, but It is the emails (recipients) that were accumulated in the forwarded email. What happens if one day some some spammer receive that accumulated email ? (actually their BOTs have been doing that for ages)
But that’s old story now, we have many excellent spam blockers everywhere. But here I am still grudging about these chain letters… Perhaps a couple examples could help explaining what is buzzing on my head now
TRY NOT TO LAUGH ( i didnt
believe it,
but it works!)??

repost this with the title “IQ
AND
LOVE TEST”
to throw people off and your wish will
come true. If you don’t, it will
become
the oppositeDid you know? before you go to sleep
at
night there is one person thinking of
you. They want to kiss
you, They want to be with you, they
are
always thinking about you before they
go to sleep at night, they are longing
to be with you. This is all true not a
fake if you repost this in 5 mins
the person that is longing to be with
you will approach you in a month and
ask you out or grab you and kiss you.
But if you break this
chain no one will like you or ask you
again for 5 years!!Post this in the next 200 seconds and
you
WILL have
THE best day of your life THIS FRIDAY
I just got this from my friends, several times. There are a lot of junks motivational posting out there and I now everyone now must have received tons of these kind of junks motivational postings.
Now please could anyone tell me, why should we threat other some kind of stupid nonsense like this…
But if you break this chain no one will like you or ask you again for 5 years!!
So how eager are you to have your friends won’t been kissed in the next 5 years?![]()
Ok, now let see another one
The President of Argentina received this letter and called it “junk mail”, 8 days later his son died.
A man received this letter and immediately sent out copies…his surprise was winning the lottery.
Alberto Martinez received this letter , gave it to his secretary to make copies but they forgot to distribute:
she lost her job and he lost his family.
This letter is miraculous and sacred, don’t forget to forward this within 13 days to at least 20 people.
Do Not Forget to forward and you will receive a huge surprise!!
Who the hell is Alberto Martinez? Can anyone tell me who he is? ![]()
I won’t put more example again here, I think both example could represent all the others. There are a lot that I want to spill out here but I will get straight to the point… that thing is exactly the title of this post
CURSES YOUR FRIENDS !!!
Well, perhaps I have put to many sarcasm and skepticism in my prejudge. I know many of the forwarder send them because they want to share something goods that could motivate, animate their feelings, and develop hopes for their friends. But, please… In my humble opinion, some good things that we give and share sincerely do not need any requisite, payback, or even curse penalty term. You just give them, that’s it, never asking anything in return.
I know these new ages of chain letters have adopted couple of good marketing practices. They could build up need that the recipients like giving a deadline for punishment if their do not make a quick decision to buy do what we want they to do.
I know perhaps this is just like a game, people do not take this seriously (only some psycho like me take this seriously). It is hard for me to take it lightly if millions of people making some curse, grudge, threat, or what ever you called it unintentionally via Chain letters.
JUST SAY NO TO STUPID CHAIN LETTERS

say no to drugs..
Of course people take those stupid chain letters seriously, if they didn’t, they would’ve just ignored it instead of sending them to all of the addresses in their contact list.
I personally hate those chain letters. When a chain letter arrives in my inbox I usually just delete it. But what I hate the most is the fact that my “so called educated & God believer” friends actually responded those curses by redistributing them.
Ever think about who’s the first one writing that letter on the first place? Probably some idiot who doesn’t have anything better to do in their life. And yet you still let your life led by that idiot. Shame.
Btw thanks ya udah mampir ke blog gw ^ ^
