OMG, my parents have sent like 50,000 email forwards to me the last few days. I can't handle it. I see the new mail symbol and I get excited but then I see it is ANOTHER email forward. Please, please stop with the forwards!

Re: Please stop

  • My MIL and GMIL are bad with the forwards. With the "Warning you are in danger!!!" ones I used to reply all with the Snopes link pointing out that the email wasn't true. That helped slow them down, now I mostly just get the "You are special and I love you!!!!" ones or "If you love God, you'll send this on!!" ones. Somehow I don't remember the bible telling me I need to hound my friends with annoying emails to show I love God. Must have missed that Sunday.

    I delete about 30-40 of these a week. I feel your pain. I hate forwards.

    OMG!! I hate getting those!!!!! they are the most annoying threat ever!
  • O.M.G. My mom sends me about 5-10 a day. Some of them are amusing, but then she sends the friendship type things too. Oh and then on Monday I got one from her that was about child abuse and there were a couple PICTURES of abused kids. I understand that raising awareness is a good thing, but pics? Seriously? I yelled at her for that one.

    That's like when my MIL sent me the email about texting while driving. I was so furious about that one!

    I get a ton of fwd's from my MIL. I delete them before I even read them. To top it off...she sends them to home and my work email. So I have to delete them twice!
