to despise those send to 10 of your friend texts

[ochayethenoo]

Does anyone else feel like vomiting when they get one of those sickly, pointless and childish texts that usually go a bit like 'you are a beautiful mother and human being, if you think i am too, send this back to me and to 9 other beautiful mothers...'

You get the kind of thing i mean. Part of me is always genuinly surprised that anyone would consider me a suitable recipiant of such a puke enducing message, the rest of me is ashamed to know anyone who would send one well enough to give them my mobile number.

Is that so unreasonable?

[Oblomov]

oh I hate them too. Never EVER forward them.

[iggi999]

Delete delete.
Mostly it's my mum sending them to me, I assume she thinks they're nice.

[marriednotmulled]

They drive me nuts too.

I can just about tolerate the saccharine sweet ones but when I'm expected to forward the 3 or 4 texts these dirges are compiled of, then they are ditched.

I know some people have unlimited text messaging but I don't

[Alibobster]

I hate these but unfortunately I do forward on the 'chain' ones which promise bad luck if you don't, as I'm very superstitious

[Spidermama]

I delete them straight away and give no further thought to them save perhaps a tad of pity for the weakness of the person who sent the text on to me.

I forward them if I think they are funny, or if I share the sentiments involved. But I haven't forwarded the one a close friend sent me recently, that promised me a miserable 2011 if I didn't forward it.

This friend knows about my struggles with depression, so why she would send it to me is beyond my comprehension.

[twinklingfairy]

I hate these too!
I might hand on the sentiments, if I like them, but I always delete the part that threatens or asks me to send them on to bla bla amount of people.
I really really hate the threatening ones!!

[cupcakebakerer]

Hate them. Ignore them.

[ohdearyme11]

Hate them!!

[StayingFatherChristmasGirl]

I really don't understand why anyone would send on a threatening one - especially if they know the person they are sending it to has issues with depression.

[TyraG]

Ugh they annoy me. If I want to let someone know I think they're important in my life I just send a card or nice email to let them know.

[EarthMotherImNot]
