Got this emailed to my msn account about 20 bloody times, soooo annoying.

Does anyone else suffer from these reunited sites emailing you pretending to be your friend? They must have access to your buddy list or something cuz its always address from a friend.

You forgot to mention the 'color change' clothing as well, dun know what has happened to that?

As far as the change colour clothing I expect that they have found that after it is 5 years old the chemicals become toxic and start to eat you... eek
