WTF is wrong with some of my relatives? Chain letter e-mails.

Seriously?  Why are they sending me this crap?  I can tell what they are almost as soon as they open the e-mail and delete them.

    I love the ones that I get that say "SNOPES SAYS THIS IS TRUE!!!!"....except, of course, if you go to snopes.com, it will actually say it is false.  I am amazed at the things people still believe.

    DH's grandfather sends 2-3 out to everyone DAILY.  He's 80 and we don't have the heart to tell him to stop.
  • I just got one of a poorly photoshopped picture of Jesus in the clouds.  Oy.

  • LOL!  I get them from my Mom and other relatives all of the time.  When my Mom was here after DS was born I saw her click a link in a spam email.  I waslike "Nooooooooooooooooooo!"  She has no clue.
  • my dad is the king of all this, and its mostly stupid political stuff too!! so annoying!!

    Sometimes I e-mail them the snopes.com link and tell them it's not true.  I hope that it stops them from sending me that junk in the future - but sadly it doesn't.

  • I get three or four god emails a week from my grandma.  Or worse, the psuedo-political ones ie - prayer in school.  I email something along the lines of "we do not agree on these issues, please stop sending me these."  Then I get more god emails the next day. 
  • I have an uncle who sends them out in batches.  So every 2-3 weeks I get like 20 e-mails at once.  I just delete them all now without even opening. OIY.
  • i get that sort of crap from a few of my aunts, and sometimes my mom. and they're ALWAYS religious. barf.
