I read them because they are hilarious, but never forward them on.
AAlso they do say when you will die, such as you will die on sunday at midnight. One I got even said you will die at 1pm tomorrow morning.

I use to read them every now and then but I just ignore them now. Why is the world full of pointless shit like this? Granted they're funny occasionally but "forward this or you will die"!! Do people actually believe this? I reckon on some level some people will feel the need to pass it on after reading stuff like " forward to ten people within 10 minutes and you'll meet the person of your dreams tommorow".

Utter bollocks and a waste of perfectly good 1's and 0's.

I hate the ones you get sent and you actually want to pass it on because it has some important information in it, but then says "pass it on and you will meet the love of your life this saturday.

Yeah, like "Tell all your friends about this new grotty virus that is spreading around and trashing people's hard drives!"
Those e-mails are viruses themselves, they just have a different mode of operation.

Brain teaser: If the acclaimed time of death is at 2:30 AM just before the end of daylight saving time, would you die twice?

Actually what I meant was when they explain how bad the conditions for troops in Iraq are like or something like that but then say to pass it on.

If you lived in the Half Life world you would.
