Default Do you have friends that do this...?

One of my best freinds (I was best man at his wedding) e-mails me every single stupid, ridiculous chain e-mail that comes along. He sends me Jesus crap, Marine crap, political crap, hot-chick crap, games, news, etc, etc, etc, etc. Most of them have been around for years. Anyway he sent me eight last night. I'd tellhim to just stop, but he's a really good friend that I want to keep in touch with. He lives across the country and I don't want to break contact with him (which is probably exactly the reason he sends them to me), but [censored]!

Great suggestions. I've had a couple of friends send me stuff really indiscriminately, and I don't look forward to seeing their crap in my inbox.

My mother in law does this. She sends everything to both my wife and me as well as everyone else in the family and even some of our friends whose email addresses she has gleened from various invites and stuff over the years.

I think she does it to prove she's a hip old girl. (Her words)

I choose to not say anything but almost all of it is either worthless crap or stuff that's been floating around the net since the early 90's.

Its got to the point I file it in the trash without reading it.

Talk to him. Tell him to quit forwarding you the retarded [censored] and send you just the good [censored].

I hate people that do stuff like this. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Oh, and tell him if he does send it to you, to get rid of all the FWD:FWD:FWD:FWd: [censored] so it reads easier.
