The thing i hate most about chainmail is that it comes from my friends who are people i assume have more intellegence than falling for some poorly written thought-provoking tripe.

I got this one recently. So i emailed the person back and said:

A simple friend passes it on and sends it back to you.

A real friend simply reads this e-mail, deletes it, assumes you just accidently sent it to them and makes a note to talk to you about chainmail sometime. How's thursday?
 
Ha ha ha, I almost want my friends to start sending me chain letters through e-mail, just so I can b*tch them out about it. I used to do that to my brother, because he kept sending those "Please forward this e-mail to at least 20 people so we can save little Jessica's life" letters to me. Every time I would send it back to him telling him not to send me that crap, and he never caught on, so I confronted him one day and said if he didn't stop sending me that stuff I was going to take him off my contacts list and he'd never get another e-mail through to me again.

Now I have the same problem with my mom, but she's old, computer-illiterate, and gullible as hell, although she means well. So I let it slide, and hit that delete button in silence whenever I get one of those...

I regret the day I talked my dad into buying a computer. :ouch:
 
I did the same thing for my mom! I went out and picked out a relatively inexpensive unit on Boxing Day from Best Buy, because I was tired of coming home after work and her being in my room on my computer. So I set it all up, and within exactly ten minutes from the time she first went on it, she had problems. Ones which required me to sit down and fix one at a time, and it took me almost an hour to repair the damages she had done. Whenever anything pops up on her screen, she always clicks "Okay." Might as well hold up a sign in cyberspace that says, "Viruses! Come, pick me, pick me!!"

At least she uses it long enough to get a virus. My dad spends about 15 minutes on his before he gets frustrated, starts cussing, and then turns it off. I show him how to do things all the time and then make him do it while I am watching (who's the parent again?) and he'll be good, but once he doesn't do it for about a week then he forgets and calls me again.

He also decided the Wal-Mart $400 special was the PC for him and can't understand why my 3-D intensive games won't work on his computer. I'm guessing the 32mb integrated video memory for a start.

He's also gone out and bought a digital camera, scanner, and photo editing software and then I have to refresh him on how to work it all on a regular basis.
 
Chainmails are anoying. If you are a myspace user, you see random 15 year olds posting bulletins with trick titles to lure you into opening, and then you see a chainmail. and they are always useless information that nobody needs whatsoever. so yeah, chainmails = bad.
