I get about 1 chain letter a day.
I get a lot of the "if you're a true friend" type letters. And, I'm a christian so, I also get the "if you truly love god" ones. I use hotmail mostly so I get a few of the "make sure you forward this to atleast 10 people otherwise your hotmail account will be deleted due to lack of server space on behalf of Microsoft" Those piss me off because people that I thought had a bit of intelligents actually send them to 10+ people.
So, I haven't read a chain letter for a long time now. It's just a bunch of bull****. No one is ****ing going to give a kid with testicle cancer money for every forwarded email. If they're that generous why wait for a ****ty chain letter that pisses everyone off to circulate around. If they actually cared enough then they'd give the money for the damn operation then and there.
