Do you sometimes get those really long text messages from random people you don't know? And it says something like, "if you forward this to ten people you'll meet the love of your life but if you don't you will DIE." Or something like that?

I HATE THOSE!!

They are the most manipulating things ever! Whenever you get one, you know it's not true but you still forward the message to a bunch of people because you hope it's true.

And I hate it when they say, "all you have to do is forward this to 15 people, it shouldn't be hard." Umm, no, I am a very socially awkward person, do you think I have 15 friends to forward this to? No! I have like 4 friends.

And now, I'm going to write a forward that has all the annoying things you see in forwards.

"PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!!
You have been chosen by God, to have a perfect day on Friday.😊
In the morning you'll see a unicorn and ride it to school! Then at lunch your best friend will give the bigger half of the cookie this time! 🍪 After school under the bleachers, the love of your life will kiss you. 😘 then you'll ride your pet unicorn back home and when you walk inside your favorite book character will be standing there! Then you'll get married and have 500 children. The end.
But if you don't send this to 100 people in 30 seconds this will not come true and you will DIE. It's not that hard. Please keep this going! It has been going since 300 B. C. I wish you the best of luck and I <3 you!!!! 😇😊😉😃😄"

Now let's look at all the flaws here...

"PLEASE READ!!"
If you start a forward like this you'll make me want to read it even less.

"You have been chosen by God"
Why does every forward mention God?

"😊🍪😘😇😊😏😃😄"
Why are there so many emojis?!?!?

It's way too specific. What if the person doesn't even go to school? What if they don't have a favorite book character?

It's unrealistic. As much as I hate to say it, unicorns and fictional characters do not exist.

"The love of your life will kiss you"
Why is every forward about the love of your life?

"It's not that hard"
Like I said earlier, it is hard when you only have 4 friends.

"You will DIE"
I never seen a tombstone saying, " cause of death: not forwarding to 10 people."

"It has been going since 300 B C."
Cell phones haven't even been invented 300 B C. What did they do? Throw rocks at each other with the forward on them? "If you don't throw this rock at 15 people, you'll die!"

"I wish you the best of luck and I <3 you!!!"
Why are forwards always so nice?

I just can't.
- cornflakes :D
