Coming Soon 👀 At the beginning of April, you’ll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
A new form of “chain letter” has become prevalent on Facebook and other social networking sites. For example, they may start with “If you love [support, believe in, etc.] your mother [sister, teacher, nurse, etc.] share this.” They often rely on guilt to ensure propagation (If you don’t share then you must not love your mother!). I always wonder who starts these and why. Some are probably heartfelt but I can imagine some are put out there almost as a game to see how quickly a message spreads.
It’s been many years since I’ve received a chain letter in the snail-mail. Interesting point about Facebook though – I think it’s the same motivation as the traditional chain letters.
It has been years since I have gotten personal snail mail(other than the occasional greeting card on b’day or Christmas). Everything else is bills, official notices and junk.

“The fault, dear Brutus, lies not in our chain letters but in ourselves.”

I agree with Linus.
It’s just a stupid piece of paper.
