You are not going to get any special blessings, healing etc from Jesus, Buddha, Allah or whoever else you try and pin your stupidity on because you forwarded some random message to 10 people in 10 minutes.

You will not save any poor little girl in Somalia by forwarding any messages…

Microsoft, Google, “a telephone company” etc is not going to do didly squat because you forwarded a message. More likely you are simply costing them money by wasting bandwidth and processing power. In the case of the telcos and SMS however, you are simply donating money to THEM.

Nobody is tracking how many times you passed a message on in order to donate money to some random cause. If you really want to donate money or whatever just give the damn red cross, charity etc whatever you can afford.

You will not find salvation, your true love or whatever it is that you are looking for by forwarding messages to people. All you do is broadcast your extreme desperation to the world and piss of your friends who do have brains and who will probably be automatically sending messages from you to the trash bin. Ever sent mail to someone who claimed they never got it? Probably went straight to trash because that’s what they’re used to getting from you.

When you forward all these mails, blackberry messages, SMS’s etc what you are really doing is:

• Clogging up networks
• Telling everyone what you are secretly praying for
• Spamming people and sending junk mail
• Achieving a false and hollow sense of achievement
• Telling your friends that you do care about helping people but are to damn lazy or ignorant to do the right things
• Attempting to blackmail people into joining your stupidity by telling them God will punish them if they don’t further your stupid cause
• being so completely ridiculous you make Homer Simpson look like Stephen Hawking in comparison.
• participating in mass hysteria, perpetuating urban legends and acting like a retard

So the next time you get one of those forward this to x number of people, help raise money etc chain messages, be brave, do the right thing, HIT DELETE! OR if you absolutely must forward it because you really and truly believe and have actually THOUGHT about the contents of the message the for God’s sake remove all the email addresses, USE BCC. I don’t need to know that you sent it to 500 other random people who I definitely don’t want having MY email address.

peash!

ps: I dont hate you, I’m not pissed at you, I hate that you allow yourself to fall into these traps…

ps: I could also say something like this (but I’m not going to): If you don’t forward a link to this page to as many people as you know,  you will rain down damnation on yourself and unleash all the forces of hell into your life. You will suffer all the problems Yar’adua has and more. You will die broke, lonely, blind and a paraplegic in the gutters of Ajegunle. Test your fate if you dare…
