I’m THAT guy
Jul 9, 2008 Internet, Thoughts
Ever seen an email with these kind of subjects come across the email?:
Fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd: OBAMA IS REALLY A MUSLIM OMG!!!11!!
Fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd:THIS VIRUS WILL WIPE OUT YOUR PC!
Fwd:fwd:fwd:fwd:DON’T BUY GAS ON APRIL 1ST!!!one1!
These emails go onto say a bunch of stuff that is usually pretty far out there. At the end, you are normally told to send the email to 15 people so a miracle will happen to you in the next 24 hours. Ever seen an email like that? I HATE THOSE!
Well, as soon as I get one of those, I immediately head over to www.snopes.com to find out if it is true or completely false. Normally, they are false. After copying the link, I then immediately send it back to whoever sent that dumb email to me. I’m that guy. And I get so much satisfaction from it!
So, are you a sender, deleter, or a teach-the-sender-a-lesson-er like me?
