...I will pass a law taking away the Internet rights of people who send over 20 percent of their e-mails with FW:FW:FW:FW: in the subject line.
I realize, of course, that this will take away all access to the Internet for 98 percent of all Americans over the age of 65. But it's a small price to pay.
And once that's done, I'm going to decree mandatory prison time for people who forward crazy Internet rumors without having first checked them with Snopes.com. An older friend of mine used to FW:FW:FW:FW stuff like that to me. Inevitably I would look it up on Snopes, then send him back a link to information showing he'd sent me something bogus. He didn't appreciate it one bit.

One of my brothers in law in Louisiana was like that. He'd forward all that pro Bush-God-stuff to me. One day I noticed that he'd also sent the whole mailing list along with the forward. I did a mass reply explaining in graphic detail why as two term Nam vet I had no use for Shrub and thought Kerry a hero.
Needless to say, my inbox lost a lot of traffic.
You must forward this blog to seven people in the next seven minutes to prove you are are a true Christian or your Guardian Angel will dump you for a godless heathen. Hallelujah, Rod!!
I want to murder people when they are sitting behind you at a traffic light and honk the VERY MILLISECOND the light turns green.
Email-wise, I also hate the chains about our Guardian Angels or anything written by a country music singer about why the Iraq war is blessed by God.
I also don't like referring to my peeves as "pets" - they are raging, wild animals of Chuck Norris-strength fury.
Insane Kitten: one of my favorite cartoons ever had a couple of guys sitting morosely in hell amongst the flames, and one is saying: "Tailgating and flashing my headlights at people. What about you?"
How about driving the speed limit in the far left lane.
There's no hell deep or hot enough for the idiots who do this.
