Okay, this is one of those email things I got a long time ago from a relative. But, I'm in one of those moods, so I thought someone might appreciate it.
What I've learned as I've matured----
-- I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people are just
a***oles.
-- I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes
suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.
-- I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is
stalk them and hope they panic and give in.
-- I've learned that you can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes.
After that, you'd better have a big willy or huge boobs.
-- I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to others -- they are
more screwed up than you think.
-- I've learned that you can keep vomiting long after you think you're
finished.
-- I've learned that we are responsible for what we do, unless we are
celebrities.
-- I've learned that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is
at first, the passion fades, and there had better be a lot of money to
take its place.
-- I've learned that 99% of the time when something isn't working in your
house, one of your kids did it.
-- I've learned that the people you care most about in life are taken
from you too soon and all the less important ones just never go away.
-- I've learned to say "F--- 'em if they can't take a joke" in 3
languages.
Pass this along to 5 friends...trust me, they'll appreciate it. Who
knows, maybe something good will happen. If not...tough s**t
The title really begs the question: can a lover of B-movies really be mature?
That being said, I quite liked number 3.
Those are great and I can really relate to some of them. Thanks for posting that.
Hmm, is this some tricky way of passing it on to multiple people without ACTUALLY sending it, and thus avoiding whatever curse is inherently part of these things?
(#1 rings especially true to me, but it was abad day at work).
On this note, anyone remember the smail mail chain letters? Theones that threatened dire consequences if you break the chain, and wonderous things if you don't.
I actually got one about 5 years ago. Do they still exist?

I normally skip these lists when people send them to me, but I took the time to, um, "modify" one of them a while back.

Re: Fw: The Green Dog.
Read Each One Carefully and Think About It a Second or Two
1. I love you not because of who you are, but because of your money.
2. No man or woman is worth your tears, unless your tears smell like dog food. So you can just sit there eating can after can of dog food until your tears smell enough like dog food that your man or woman comes back, or you can go out there and find your man or woman!
3. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have. Drop these losers and find somebody who knows how to push your buttons.
4. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your <>.
5. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them and still only graze them with your knuckles.
6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because it takes 372 muscles to frown and screw them if they think you should be doing any more work than you have to.
7. To the world you may be one person, but we all know the real truth, you crazy freak.
8. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, sheep are the answer.
9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one because he's some sort of sadist.
10. Don't cry because it is over, cry because they still have most of your CD's.
11. There's always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful and carry a gun.
12. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you. I mean, really, if you expect anybody to want to get to know the person you are now. . .
13. Don't try so hard, it's really embarrassing for the rest of us.
REMEMBER: WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS FOR TEN REASONS!
True friends: How many people actually have 8 true friends?
Almost everybody! I know I do. I hope you do too, because if not you must be some sort of anti-social mutant.

You will Have Good Luck For Ten Seconds if you send this to 8 people or more and if this is sent back to you then you are somewhat nifty......You must send it in 5 minutes or your god will smite you.
EDIT: For some reason, the spaces in the ASCII picture don't show up right, but trust me, it's hot stuff.

Yes, we actually got one a few weeks ago. We could tell that they got the name and address out of the phone book though, it wasn't someone that knows us - our phone is still in my wifes maiden name (mind you we've been married 10 years next Thursday!), so anything that rocks up addressed to that name, or any phone calls asking for that name, get ignored or hung up on.
Anyway, this particular letter is now recycled.
We've gotten a few snail mail chain letters over the years. Some of them were the plain old 'bad luck' chain letters, some were of a religious nature, saying to send the letter on to send blessings and prayers or something.
All chain letters are good for are creating name lists for e-mail spammers.
The sad thing is that my mother and sister send me those damn things all the time even though I've told them about a hundred times that I delete them on the spot.
I've learned:
The worst things that happen to us come- in some way- from ourselves.
Death wasn't/isn't/will never be painless.
It's all about control, the illusion of and so on... Society and everthing in it is about control; who controls what, why, how often...
How well you can make others understand what you are trying to achieve, why and to what end will determine whether or not they stand by you when things get ugly.
Modesty is underkill; bragging is overkill.
Everyone has a strength and a weakness unlike anything you can imagine.
No matter how much you have, you'll never have enough. No matter how much you lose, you could still lose more.
Everything people tell you to do, remember and learn is really for themselves. Forget everything I told you--- NOW!
I've always enjoyed aphorisms.
A couple of my favorites;
"Show me a man who's never made a mistake, & I'll show you a man who's never done anything"
And one I rit myself;
"Just because someone refuses to understand, doesn't necessarily mean that they're wrong. Of course, just because they're not wrong doesn't automaticly make them right, either. It just means that they don't understand."
And, of course, my signature, which I stole from a Micheal Bolton video...
-- I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people are just
a***oles.
That's been one of the hardest to learn.
