Oh, add to your list...Submitted by Clementina (not verified) on November 7, 2005 - 4:46pm.
Oh, add to your list of Not Kosher the forward-posts of so-called humorous emails, and worse, the heart-warming [read: gag-inducing] emails. Or people who haven't the faintest idea of my politics and send me preaching-to-the-choir stuff that I'm not even sure I get the (usually conservative) meaning of (whoops! my bias is showing...but you know, we liberals, being liberals and thus aware of DI-ver-si-ty, don't usually assume people agree with us) . Sorry, kids, but there are only 3 people whom I allow to send me jokes. And the rest get SO insulted when you very kindly write them and ask them not to forward you things unless they would specifically like you to read them. I have insulted many people by politely asking that they not include me in their 100-best-friend joke/inspiration list. What gives? » POSTED IN:
