Natural Highs Chain Letters

Natural Highs chain letters
 
These are lists of scenarios that you are supposed to read, feel really good about, so good that you will do the best thing in the world and make someone else feel good, by, yes you guessed it - passing the lists of natural highs to them!
 
They are among the least offensive virals, but they ARE STILL virals, the manipulation in this case is to get you thinking you are spreading the good feelings and natural highs. What you are actually spreading is more copies of these lists.
 
So let's have some fun and nix the natural high factor enough to put a wrench into the chain originators' game plan. Starting with a list posted on another site.

Debunking:
 
Okay, this chain letter is very simple, this is a list of natural highs(does NOT mean drugs)For each one you add send it to one person and every one on the bottom of the list, but before you do put your e-mail address on the bottom!! Addd at least one!! Lets start::
 
-No, forget passing it on. Let's start the debunk now.
 
1)Playing Music - and getting it wrong.
2)Listening to Music - and not liking it.
3)Being with Freinds -(you mean 'friends' - who turn out to be enemies later.
4)Having a Crush -without it getting returned.
5)Good looking members of the opposite gender -who don't know you exist.

Bad Feelings
 
Putting a different light on another fluffy, feel-good chain letter.
 
Subject: FW: Bad Feelings
 
Please make sure you -don't- forward this back to me -- you'll see why at the end! Think about them one at a time BEFORE going on to the next one......... IT DOES -not- MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD, especially the thought at the end. Please remember that thought -the next time you get a compulsion to send on some superficial fluffy friendship forward that's been everywhere and that you did not write yourself. Never honor the request of any chain letter to "send a copy back to me" that's the way any chain originator could try to collect addresses if everyone did that, and it would crash the net with deplorable amounts of copies of the same junk. Everybody would get nothing but zillions of the same junk forwards coming back to them and nothing else.
