Get the Chain Letter mug.Related Words
Either seen as a death threat, list, or something random to scare or "reward" people, a chain letter is something that many idiots believe in. It is an epidemic on Youtube and Myspace. Usually, middle schoolers and people without friends forward these, but these letters are annoying as hell generally. If it's not a death threat, it says that it will tell you that if you forward it, that you'll have yourself a boyfriend/girlfriend on Friday.
Person 1: Hey! I just reposted this chain letter on Myspace saying that she'll finaly be mine on Friday!
Person 2: Shut up! Myspace isn't going to decide that for you. Grow some balls now.

Get the Chain Letter mug.A virally propagated scam, formerly sent entirely through snail mail, but now more frequently sent through email. It operates basically as a pyramid scheme in which the recipient is urged to send a small sum of money to each person on a short list of names and addresses, with the promise that they will receive a lot of money when they rotate their name into the list, and the oldest name off of it, and mail the letter to everyone they know.
Some chain letters try to scam people even further, by instructing them rotate their name into the oldest position, so that the very next recipient will rotate them off of it, so that only the first names and addresses on the list will get any money.

unfortunately, a very large amount of people still fully believe that they're true

If chain letters were real, I wouldn't still be a virgin and I'd have a girlfriend. Oh, and I'd be a millionaire too. But then my family and friends would be dead, and I'd be homeless as well. And I'd be dead too. Make up your mind. Who dies: me, my friends, or my family?
The biggest giveaway that they're fake, though, is this chain letter I once read:
There was a six-year-old girl named Lily Rhodes. She was raped to death by a man named Tim Goldman. After he buried her, he chanted, "Oticapsed olleuc ut raripser oreiuq oticapsed." Now that you've read this, you need to post this to 25 other websites in the next five minutes. If you don't, Lily will show up in your bedroom at night and do to you what Tim did to her. If you do, you will be rewarded, and Lily will not come after you.
I didn't repost it, and no six-year-old girl showed up at night to rape me to death. Not that I'm complaining. I like not being dead. Plus, I need to stay a virgin if I want to become a wizard/sage/whatever other term there is.
