Unrealistic Reality..

.. of chain mail?!

Everyone gets chain mail at least a dozen times in their lives, whether due to cellular devices, e-mails, and so on. They all come in different arrays, from the "10 years bad luck if you don't send this to 20 people" to the "if you send this within 10 minutes your true love will realize he loves you at midnight" and even, sometimes, the colorful ones that get sent 6 times between a circle of friends, measuring how much you're loved by how many times you get the same pointless and redundant message.
Today however, I received two of the same texts from both my sister and best friend within the course of 3 minutes about a gang innitiation that would happen tonight (Wednesday). The location where the Gang-shoppers would select their target would be wal-mart; but which supermarket, let alone what city and state were not even mentioned. The message also stated that it was women who were the intended victims.
A situation like that, as you gather, would cause the store to lose massives amount of money, since they are wal-mart after all, but that's hardly the point. Any chain letter that is expected to last cannot reach my eyes: all I do is read until I realize what it is and delete it. But in a situation like that, I wouldn't help but wonder exactly whether it was true or not.
