Poor little dead Teddy with the scary eyes and no nose or ears. His pain is such that it can only be expressed by killing people that won't send a chain letter to 15 people, and all within the realm of an online community of pixelated people. Well if that is the case, Teddy, I'm sorry but I laugh at your pain. Did you die in some freak computer accident while reading one of these, I wonder. Forever doomed to stalk the petty games of superstitious twelve year olds.
What the ********, people, what are we all, middle schoolers? Please don't answer that, it will only depress me. This is the second time I've received this chain letter and it's getting old.... it was was old the first time I got it. I do not believe in chain letters, especially those sent by email. I refuse to pass this on. First off, it's against TOS to do so. Secondly, chain letters are a stupid waste of inbox space. Thirdly, they're *rude*.
Seriously, people, stop this stupidity, or, at the very least, leave me out of it. I don't *want* to turn off my pms. And I don't particularly relish the idea of getting someone in trouble. But next time I get this, or *any* threatening sort of chain letter (including the "gaia admins will ban you" type ones) I *will* report and defriend the person who sends it to me. How's that for "SOMETHING BAD?" Hope the love confession from your secret crush at 10:22 was worth it. And I will be nothing short of gleeful if the long list of quoted people get warned too.
You know, I really have nothing against people who fear ghosts. I fear ghosts. I do not go near horror films with a ten foot pole unless I know I can afford the weeks of lost sleep... In fact, I bet most people have some sort of fear of ghosts, or the death they represent, whether they're willing to acknowledg it or not. But that doesn't mean that I think it's okay to let fear make you completely stupid and inconsiderate.
If you are one of those people who continue chain letters for no other reason that it tells you to, please get a life... and a stronger sense of courtesy. Get a hobby, or find some other stupid way to waste your time.
If you know you're the superstitious sort who can't rest until you have followed every tiny direction the chain letter gives you, just *don't* read it. Stop reading as soon as you see the "DONT STOP OR ELSE." What kind of threat is "SOMETHING BAD WILL HAPPEN" anyways? It doesn't even specify that something bad will happen to *you*. I hate to break it to you folks, but bad things are happening around you all the time, whether you're aware of it or not. According to Unicef.org a child dies of poverty every three seconds. Believe it or not, bad things will happen whether some vengeful ghost of a first grader has anything to do with it or not.
And I just want to say if you truly do believe in ghosts and chain letters, and you still sent it to 15 people, you are a horrible person. What, just because you're afraid of ghosts it's okay to put 15 other people at risk? What kind of friend are you? Not one I want, that's for sure.
Even if you are one of these horrible people, please take just a moment from your self-centered daze to think about how realistic this is before subjecting others to unpleasantness. Let us first examine the content of the letter.
Now it's been a while since I've been a seven year old, but I don't recall love being high on my list of "good things" when I was that age. Isn't that still when boys are gross and have cooties? Why would dead, deformed Little Teddy offer this up as a reward for completing his pointless task? I also find it suspicious that none of the words are misspelled. Did you know "knife" had a silent "k" when you were in the first grade? or that "night" had that "gh"? But I suppose that Teddy, being the deformed freak that he is, did not have a lot of friends when he was alive. And so I will allow that books may have been his only friends, in which case the abnormally advanced spelling would make sense... I guess... though it obviously hasn't had any effect on his maturity.
Next let us consider the logistics. How does this seven-year-old ghost keep track of who has sent this letter to whom? The letter is not even physical, it's electronic. It's not like you can touch it leave to some sort of psychic marking the ghost can track. Also 15 people is a lot. Let us say that every one of the 15 people you sent this letter to sent it to 15 other people. That's 225 people right there. Is this deaf little mute boy some sort of paranormal super hacker? As for his reward, how does he ensure that your object of affection will confess their undying love to you, the loser willing to risk 15 friends just because you "believe in ghosts"? How does he even know who this person is? He doesn't actually say that this will happen if you continue the chain, just that it will. So not only does he need to track down the crushes of the people who do pass on the letter, but those who don't as well. Teddy must have no life... oh yeah, he's dead.
Let us say that you have considered *all* of this, and still fear rules over reason and any sense of common decency you might have. You just *cannot* stand the idea of freaky little Teddy coming to kill you in your sleep. Have you considered going a night without sleeping? He says he will appear in a dream and kill you "2night". Or are you friends not worth losing your beauty sleep over?
Okay, so let us say that you have an important job interview or midterm or some other big event that supercedes the possible loss of the insignificant lives of fifteen other people. The question still remains: Why are you sending it to people on your friends list? Deaddy does not say a single word about having to send this to your friends, or even to people you know. He also says nothing about having to send it to people on Gaia. You could just go through your spam folder of your real email address, and send the chain letter to those who have already wasted your time. Not only do you get to assuage your irrational fear without breaking TOS and losing your friends' respect, you get to waste a bit of a spam mailer's time. Yay! Revenge is sweet, yes? So why are you sending it to me?
