My sister (the one who introduced me to the woods) will forward ANY e-mail she receives. Most are political, and most of those are phony. Yesterday I received this e-mail from her:

This year, July has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays. This happens once every 823 years. This is called money bags. So, forward this to your friends and money will arrive within 4 days. The one who does not forward.....will be without money.

Interesting. Except: 1) that's not the calendar for July 2012 (it's July 2011); and 2) that calendar configuration has occurred 12 times over the past 103 years. There's nothing unusual about it at all.
I can't help but wonder who wastes their time creating dumb, false e-mails like this one. I know who wastes my time by forwarding them. :P
Do you have a friend or family member who will forward anything???

Hahaha! I got this same forwarded thing through text message. I get a few forwarded texts every now and then from a couple of family members. I don't have the heart to tell them to quit it because I know they have good intentions. :P
ReplyDeleteOh yes! At my first job I had a colleague who would forward absolutely every email that came her way, email this to 5 people in the next 20 minutes to avoid 25 years of bad luck!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I do but despite that, I love her anyway! XD Chain letters (or emails in this case) remind me of high school...lol.
ReplyDelete(Hawaii would be a wonderful place to renew your vows :)
Noooo, I hate such chain mails XDDDD Some of my friends used to do that,but since I always ignore such mails, they stopped. Seems they realize I never answer, hahaha.
ReplyDeletePlease don't get me started! Not only do I have a sister-in-law who forwards this kind of junk, she then proceeds to ask me later if I have read them. Easy answer. NO!
ReplyDeleteapparently my FIL and my hubs' uncle will fwd anything... esp nude pics of random women LOL and eww.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA yeah chain letters huh! at least check the calendar before forwarding this one!
