Forwards
Okay, I must admit right off the bat that I'm not a fan of forwards... at all.
Actually, there are very few I appreciate and I give my friends a low-down, for real for real lecture on sending forwards to me. Basically don't do it but if it must be forwarded please don't make it an everyday thing. I can't take it.
I've been having this same spiel for years now and I think I' have been successful at nipping this irritation in the bud, even if it has cost me a couple of e-mail buddies.
The recent thoughts I've had on this is that I just may be wrong for never, ever forwarding a religious message. You know the ones that say 'fwd this if you love Jesus' or 'If you've been blessed and want to bless others with the word of God then you'll fwd this or else you're doomed to hell.'
lol
Now I don't believe the dire circumstance predicted as punishment for my refusal to fwd but lately I have been re-thinking my very strict rules on fwds. I guess it wouldn't hurt to send a couple of things along. I'll make a compromise though and at least put some kind of comment at the beginning just to personalize it.
We'll see how it goes.

Dude, I feel the same way! It's like you're being extorted to send the messages along, and you know the sure way to get a hardheaded person to not do something is to tell them to do it! It has to be REALLY special.
