The Internet is filling up because Indians are sending millions of ‘Good Morning!’ texts

All these unnecessary pleasantries are creating echoes in the balance of the world, spawning atrocities
Thank you! my first thought was this is so sickly sweet it should be in the Truman show
Imagine having time to send 50 individual images and not spending it watching movies or playing video games instead lmao
Hopefully this will soon be considered spam, by law.
Oh shit! I never thought of reporting them for spam!

It's already happening big time in my family circle. Every now and then I have those Whatsapp will shut down if you don't send this message to x contacts to prove you are an active user you will not have access.
It's like when people first got used to email, oh boy. At least at that time, it was dial-up so images and video was a no-no. But Microsoft lottery was gold (didn't helped me at all, I was working at Microsoft and got constantly calls from family/friends about how to claim their win).
Indians and Pakistanis are the worst. I get long 5-6 minute videos from my aunt's and uncles every few days and like ten fucking pictures of two word greetings instant messaging was invented for.
I think you grossly overestimate how many people actually go on 4chan, even if you're being hyperbolic.
Sounds like these people need to set their family members straight. Told my dad to stop forwarding garbage to my email or I'd route everything he sends to spam.peoblen solved. Have a family group chat going in WhatsApp and we all seem to understand it's for points 9f interest not saying good morning everyday. Holidays, birthdays, deaths, snow pictures, pictures in general of the kids, events, event planning or checking in (but not a worthless good morning everyday). I mean just because they're old doesn't mean they can't be taught.
My buddy confirms this is a real thing. He has a dummy email account for exactly this. No family members know his real email lmao.
Doesn't use whatsapp, tells relatives work doesn't allow it, LOL. Luckily no one thinks to text anymore because "texts are for flip phones, and we have SMART phones"
I laugh just typing this out

Remember when Facebook bought Whatsapp for an absurd amount of money?
Prankster uncles and crazy grandmas, now we can't blame them on just steam numbers anymore ;p
Typo in your attitude, more like it. Let em be cheery, it isn't hurting you.
Am Indian. Can confirm.
It was a little annoying to have like 10-12 good morning images every time I checked my phone after waking up. But I never really replied to any of them and I think they lost interest after not getting anything back.
Now I feel kinda bad.
Nope. If I had to bet, its the 35-50 category just based on my experience.

Cool. FYI, I'm gonna reply. I'm no cute indian granma dude, my ugly face will hunt you in your dreams. =P
Boomers moving from stories made on power point to motivational videos and pictures.
I don't understand old people's love for sharing lots of saccharine-ridden messages. But if that employs lots of graphic designers, good.
The storage filled by media (quicker in low to mid ranged phones) is quite an epidemic. Services such as Google Photos should smarten up and appear right at the moment the storage is being filled by good feeling Tweety pictures and whatnot. It's a necessity that plenty of old people don't know about or don't realize what benefits bring to the table.

The average consumer doesn't want single player video games- they want to send good morning messages.
This sounds like the modern equivalent of getting a Geocities page and putting up a ton of shitty little GIFs on it and sharing their "website" with people.
Maybe a couple of repeats but it's rare like a shiny charizard card
Part of the deal is that the group texts among family and extended family can be massive. And the participants feel rude if they don't send a good morning text.
I just received this from my Uncle on whatsapp...

That's all don't score full mark...but
