Sometimes the guilt can feel the same. All the same at least you're not being threatened with eternal bad luck if you don't participate... and Johnny won't die. I'm with you - chain email sucks and I've been known to write back to the sender saying thanks but no thanks. <strong>Cellobella: Memes bug me a little, too. I mean, if you get tagged and don't want to do it, do you look like a bit of a jerk? If I do one, it's because it amuses me and I think it might amuse others, but I generally don't tag people to do it in case they don't want to. And yes, at least there is no 'curse of a thousand locusts' on someone that doesn't participate. Then again, maybe I am just a grumpy, anti-social cow, which is very likely ;) S</strong><strong> Ahhh but do you class memes as a form of chain email?
