wasted time and revolution of the chain msgs

hello ppl,i'm back from insanity. it wasnt really that bad(i meant me,the results were horrible) and sh!t happens,so lets just move on.my 'personal time' was wasted on cursing and sleeping for long hours(a luxury which i will miss a lot).at the end of it,i'm still the same old(well,i take that back,i'm still young) lazy me.however,laziness has a limit so i'm gonna have to change my habits just slightly.slightly happy though cos some ppl did express their concern and were very nice bout it.today,just gonna type a bit bout chain msgs(its the future ppl,chain letters are way too old school).heres one i got from my fs account:

i purposely left the original msg from thingy and just to add a bit,i got at least 15 of these(no BS).could some one please explain to me why anyone would ever waste their time making this kind of things up and send them around?what fun would one get from passing aroung such msgs?have to say though,this one is revolution to the normal chain msgs. for a first,it doesnt tell you to send to a fix number of ppl(normally its 10/20),no bad luck from not doing it, details from a person who did get the money(lets be honest,who the hell would send the msg again and put in their details on it just to say they got the money) and encouraging ppl to send it by saying theres nothing to lose if u did. i dont really care bout chain msgs cos i normally just ignore and delete them but this one is just sooo annoying.the person who came up with this one is really creative,hey its original,but dont u have anything else to do with your life? i'm disappointed that i have so many 'friends'(gotta admit that in my youth,i did just simply add ppl regardless whether i know them or not,trying to repair that now,i'm deleting those i dont know whenever i have the time and as one can see,my friends list is getting shorter by the day) that actually believe in this kinda thing.cant say i blame them 100%,the prospect of easy money is tempting to most but theres a saying that theres no such thing as a free lunch(i could give examples to prove it wrong but that aint the point) and my dad often tells me not trust easy money(he proves this by giving me this look whenever i offer to pay the bill,haha,).i recall having read about a get rich quickly scheme(skim cepat kaya) a few years ago and millions of ringgit were 'stolen' from ppl around the country.those who fell for it,well,u got no one but urself to blame. if making money was so easy i reckon we would have solved our poverty problem by now. this is actually my 2nd entree of the day,i typed one just a few minutes ago but as i was about to post it,my connection bro so i'm pretty pissed off right now but as i said before,sh!t happens.anyway, gonna end with a joke(if u can call it a a joke that is) by a friend of mine.heard bout the idea of taxing obese ppl for being fat?absurd aint it?i dont really see the problem as fat ppl tend to consume more food so they might be paying more tax on food than skinny ppl.anyway, theres this govt that wanted to tax stupid people for their stupidity.its very tempting u see as stupid ppl are easily manipulated to pay the tax.however,the govt had a few probs ,among them were how are they to implement it and what name should they give to the tax as a stupidity tax would be too obvious and would also cause an uproar.the govt consultd a group of economist and one of the economist gave an answer in mere seconds,"sirs,i'm sorry to say that we already have such a thing and its called the lottery".
