RIP little forward! Hasta la vista spam!
If you find that cute little email, or funny picture just to neat to not mail on . . . please know that I am sitting on the other side of my computer screen, awaiting it with a big virtual mallot, to pummel it to death!
No matter how cute, no matter how heart wrenching, no matter how hilarious. I have finally passed the point of passing it on. Never again I tell you. I will not be responsible for you getting even one more chain email simply because I want all those minutes back that I have wasted sifting through them to find the 'good ones.' When you put them in my mailbox, you are literally delivering them to their death. Ha ha!
I just can't take it anymore. I had a friend show me one at work of a baby floating in a pool, skwaking to get attention. It was an add for baby swimming lessons. It was so heart wrenching to think of a baby staying like that in a pool for even five minutes. She asked if I wanted her to send it to me to forward to my friends. My answer was a swift, "Heck NO!" First off, I am not going to promote an action which would give negligent parents with kids and pools the ability to say, "we don't have to watch her/him too close because they've had swimming lessons," and second . . . I live in Nebraska. My two year old would first have to scale a six foot fence around a public pool and fill it with water to be in any circumstance that would require infant swimming lessons.
Seriously.
Its like deciding that since your kid has on a helmet, you don't have to watch them cross a busy intersection, afterall. They know what to do right?
