Slightly off topic, but reminds me of a story ya'll might have experienced at one time or another...
My sister LOVES the internet. She reads every spam she gets and she forwards every single joke or heartwarming story she receives. I think she actually believes that "send this to ten people in five minutes or you will die a violent death" garbage. Well, it got to a point where I was getting about 10 jokes/stories a day from her and the last one hit me at the wrong time... I was having a bad day and I got yet another "too funny! you have to read this!" to which I replied:
Look, I don't know if the 50 people you cc all these emails to get as pissed off as I do, but for Christ's sake I make a living on my computer. I get about 500 spams a day as it is, so either take me out of your "forward this crap to everyone I know" list or I'm going to dev null you altogether!
Definitely out of character for me to get so nasty, but this went on for months. Funny thing is, she's on her computer all the time and the only time we talk is on the phone. Email would be so much easier, but I think she only knows where the "forward" button is. haha
