Working for a giant corporation while finishing college, I remember being overwhelmed by the politics. About the only thing that made me feel at home at first were the droves of silly little emails that people would circulate. They felt like the workplace equivalent of offering someone a cookie from your lunchbox in elementary school.
Although it doesn’t take long to grow tired of all that nonsense, now that I’ve been removed from that world for a while, I’m finally starting to miss those chain letters, syrupy slideshows, urban legends, and lame poetry. In a way, it makes me feel bad about how I deleted scores of them, unopened, once I had been assimilated.
Years have gone by without a single cheesy email crossing my inbox, but today that changed. This silly diversion somehow wrangled its way past our spam blockers. It reminded me of those cootie catchers from back in the day. Much to my surprise, it cured my secret longings.
INSTRUCTIONS: [Approximate time required: 3 minutes]
First, get a pen and paper. When you actually choose names, make sure it’s people you actually know and (this is the most important part) go with your first instinct… Don’t read ahead or you’ll ruin it!
1. First, write the numbers 1 through 11 in a column.
2. Then, beside 1 and 2, write down any two numbers.
3. Beside the 3 and 7, write members of the opposite sex.
4. Write anyone’s name (friends or family) in 4, 5, and 6.
5. Write down four song titles in 8, 9, 10, and 11.
6. Finally, make a heartfelt wish.
______________________________________________
1. You must tell (space 2) people about this game.
2. The person in space 3 is the one that you love.
3. The person in 7 is one you like but can’t work out.
4. You care most about the person you put in 4.
5. The person in number 5 knows you the best.
6. The person you name in 6 is your lucky star.
7. The song in 8 matches with person number 3.
8. The title in 9 is the song for the person in 7.
9. The tenth song tells you most about your mind.
10. The 11th tells you how you feel about life.
Remember to do step 1 for your wish to come true!

OMG – I found you again! You disappeared! Hehe… I feel so very accomplished now.
WOW! How did you mod the Blix theme? I’m having a hard time with it… and how do you get the title of the post tricked out like that? YOU MUST TEACH ME YOUR SECRETS!

Oh man, this is a sick, sick game. According to my results, I’m in love with my mom, and I like my dad but I just can’t work it out. Surely there can be no truth to these results! But what if there is? Mommy, I don’t want to inbreed! Oh man, there I go talking about my mom! This isn’t good!

Maybe it’s a hit or miss type of thang…
