Food for thought



OK, Husbie and I seriously hate in every way possible forwarded emails! Even worse, we hate forwarded emails from family members. The problem is with family you can't just cut them off. You can't just spam them immediately and write them off as meaning nothing to your inbox. How do you politely ask someone...STOP FREAKING SENDING ME YOUR FORWARDS??

How about ready................................................................................................................................................................................

Make a wish and send this to 7 people or else you will die in 10 seconds.

Well I wish that you would actually die because then I would have a clean mailbox at least


It is usually the older generation who has forwarding fever. People who like cats. And those who like to use a broad range of emoticons.

Reason #1 why they get my blood boiling

Seriously...obviously this message was so important to send to me because you can't even spare 2 seconds to delete all of the 500 person chain of forwarded addresses and the "FW: FW: FW: FW:" in the message title.

Reason #2

When I get forwards like "To all my best Girl Friends," or "To my loved ones," I take insult. Just by the fact you sent me a heartless forward to tell me I am your bff or you love me tells me you don't feel that way.

Reason #3

I don't want to see dogs and cats dressed up and doing human things. I hate PETA.

With all of that said....here is one I actually spared the time to look at and laughed my butt right off about.






Having worked in an office and also lived with roommates, I can relate.

Which brings me to another thing I strongly, strongly dislike- Fat slobs who eat all of your food!
