Shout Why I Don't Read Your Emails

Quote:
I don’t respond to pleas to sign petitions, forward email to benefit cancer victims, etc., because all that stuff is bogus! Take the time to check it out at Snopes.com. Don’t have time? I don’t either. And don’t send me something that "might do some good." Check it out, or don’t waste my time with it. Chances are I wouldn't embarrass myself by forwarding to "all the people I care about" even if it would "break the chain." In other words, get a life.

So send a link!

I'm planning to use it as a reply next time I get one of those emails. It says it better than I could...
