i have a few friends that do that..usually i send them the link to snopes/urban legends.
my Brother in law, sent me all sorts of political /and joke ones..
i finally sent him and email and told him "you assume i am a republican/democrat, and i am actually a republican/democrat, your emails are offensive to me.
and "$2000 is alot to spend on a cyber joke book.."
then i blocked him, and/or hit the spam button.
what really ticks me off, is,when they send a forward and everyone and his brother, has my email address, and i don't even know these people. then i get crap from them too!
you do know, that some email programs save all the address that are on them,don't you?
my daughter called this week and she has a virus and it is gonna cost her 90 bucks to get it fixed..she clicked on something in an email that she should not have.
So my advice is, if your gonna send or forward something you just have to share..please be kind and send it as a blind copy (Bcc) so no one gets thier email address...
just my 2cents..
