Rhythmatism - by Cheryl J

Best chain letter ever - for those who despise email chain letters

Hello, my name is (insert name here) and I suffer from the guilt of not forwarding 50 billion fucking chain letters sent to me by people who actually believe that if you send them on, a poor 6-year-old girl in Arkansas with a breast on her forehead will be able to raise enough money to have it removed before her redneck parents sell her to a traveling freak show.

Do you honestly believe that Bill Gates is going to give you, and everyone to whom you send "his" email, $1000?

How stupid are we?

"Ooooh, looky here! If I scroll down this page and make a wish, I'll get laid by a model I just happen to run into the next day!"


What a bunch of bullshit.

Maybe the evil chain letter leprechauns will come into my house and sodomize me in my sleep for not continuing a chain letter that was started by Peter in 5 AD and brought to this country by midget pilgrims on the Mayflower.

Fuck 'em.

If you're going to forward something, at least send me something mildly amusing. I've seen all the "send this to 10 of your closest friends, and this poor, wretched excuse for a human being will somehow receive a nickel from some omniscient being" forwards about 90 times.

I don't fucking care.

Show a little intelligence and think about what you're actually contributing to by sending out these forwards. Chances are, it's your own unpopularity.

The point being? If you get some chain letter that's threatening to leave you shagless or luckless for the rest of your life, delete it. If it's funny, send it on.

Don't piss people off by making them feel guilty about a leper in Botswana with no teeth who has been tied to the ass of a dead elephant for 27 years and whose only salvation is the 5 cents per letter he'll receive if you forward this email.


Now forward this to everyone you know.

Otherwise, tomorrow morning your underwear will turn carnivorous and will consume your genitals.

Have a nice day.
PS. Send me 50 bucks...

Footnote: No I didn't come up with this chain letter myself but I wish I had. I'd like to shake the hand of the man who did write it though.

Ooh Morgan, have you lost your karma? My vote count didn't go up even one point when you commented.
3. June 9th 2008 @ 06:06. Morgan Bell Says:

5. June 9th 2008 @ 06:20. Morgan Bell Says:

OUTRAGEOUS!!!!!

Cheryl - have you found out what is going on yet? I was going through the home page and saw this post of yours had four comments but only 10 points, so it's not just coming up between you and Morgan. How strange and annoying!

Love the post, hilarious - how I hate those chain emails! Remember back when you used to get them in the actual post? Toxic things.

Oh hang on! I just managed to give you 10 points!

What is going on??
8. June 9th 2008 @ 06:30. Cheryl J Says:
hi Michaelie, I don't know how that happened. I'm on 10 Karma and Morgan's on 10 Karma. Will have to alert Jon.

You'll love this then...I got one in the actual snail mail a month ago. It had 5 cents attached to it and I was supposed to send $10 to the person at the top of the list, and move the names up so we could all become fabulously wealthy. I hadn't seen one since I was a kid!
9. June 9th 2008 @ 06:38. Michaelie Says:
Oh my brother got that! And he tracked down all the people somehow and they didn't know anything about it! But he did find out something they all had in common, they were all listed as members of the Western Bulldogs. Haha.

The last time I received one myself in the post I think I was about ten, and it said my family would perish in an epidemic if I didn't send it on. It was hideous! Mum made me burn it but it instilled a deep sense of fear in me. Before that, I had only received the ones saying I was guaranteed happiness if I sent them on. Mum made me burn those too. Lol. So it's her fault if I end up a miserable old cow devoid of kith and kin!

Definitely PM Jon and let him know.

yes strange, maybe orble thinks me and cheryl are the same person after i posted some MS Paint art?
11. June 9th 2008 @ 09:07. Cheryl J Says:
Morgan you are a stirrer!

Oh well, my chain letter will die a quick death due to lack of voting numbers...at least it will be painless
12. June 9th 2008 @ 09:31. Market Newbie Says:
It's a nice one, I wonder if I can add anything to help keep this thing running...
13. June 9th 2008 @ 09:41. Cheryl J Says:
Thanks for your votes market newbie!

As you can see from the comments above we've had a bit of a glitch with numbers on this post so it's hard to tell if some votes are counting and some not but we shall see. Yours have definitely helped

Hi Cheryl
Great post. I agree totally I never pass on any of those emails. The ones I especially hate are those never forget your female friends, blah blah pass this on to 10 women that have had a positive impact in your life including the person who sent it to you. If you get it back you know you are a good friend. What a load of sap.
15. June 9th 2008 @ 10:14. Sara Dobson Says:
you got the 10 points from me too
16. June 9th 2008 @ 10:29. Cheryl J Says:
Haha Sara, I know what you mean,. I hate those sappy girly ones with little glitter angels. Glitter should be banned past the age of 8...unless you're a gay man at a dance party!

Thanks for your vote!

*clapping* Bravo! I love this. If I fell victim to every chain letter that promised my immediate destruction if I didn't forward it on to 10 people in the next 30 minutes, I'd be dead (or lonely forever, or poor, or whatever) 1000 times over.
18. June 9th 2008 @ 13:41. Cheryl J Says:
Thanks Winston. As soon as I see them now I hit the delete button...hmm, could be the source of my bad luck haha!
19. June 9th 2008 @ 22:02. James Rickard Says:
Excellent! I hate chain email. If you want a chain broken; I'm the guy to send it to!!!!!
20. June 10th 2008 @ 01:55. RubySoho Says:
Carnivorous undies....there's a future schlock horror flick for you.


hey, that no karma points thing has happened a couple of times on my blog also. probably just a glitch.

A leper tied to the ass of an elephant, what an image lol
22. June 10th 2008 @ 11:03. Cheryl J Says:
Hi James, Feel free to copy and paste the text and send it back to the next silly bugger who sends you a chain email

Hi Ruby, maybe we should tell Bryn there's a new horror flick out there, I wonder what name we could give it? Everything that springs to my mind sounds more like porn haha. I'm not too worried about the karma points, like everything to do with technology there are hiccups sometimes.

Hi Johnny, yep it will pop into your head at the most inopportune moments now...like in the middle of a big meeting.

I love the passion that comes with your impression of chain letters, your right on
24. June 11th 2008 @ 12:55. Susan Says:
LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT! I am so sick of receiving these things!!!!
25. June 11th 2008 @ 14:36. Cheryl J Says:
Thanks anon. It's safe to say I hate them with a passion and I love forwarding this to people

Thanks Susan, I'm glad you liked it. Now if only everyone would get how annoying they are and stop sending them....but then what would I make fun of haha
