Convincing Cely to Join Lampe Berger

This afternoon I decided to play a little prank on Cely.

I was reading her blog and I found this little Meebo chat thingy on her sidebar and I thought about all the naughty things I could do to her since she wouldn't know who she was talking to.
I decided to pretend to be someone trying to convince her to join Lampe Berger (something that I've had experienced over and over at many points in my life).

So here's how the conversation went

(Yes yes... another conversation post in the same week.. this will be the last for a looong time... don't worry).

cely: and even 10k a month for u also wont enough

lampe berger: yes

lampe berger: so you want to join?
lampe berger: lampe berger
lampe berger: and be rich like me?

Ok soon after that I began to lose interest and I told Cely that it was really me.

She said she expected it but the bad news is... she forwarded the conversation to a few of her friends including Earl who then forwarded it to Anti-Lamp Berger.

So uhmm... Anti-Lamp Berger.... please keep in mind that it was just a prank and not for real...

I personally don't like Lamp Berger or any other MLMs but my judgement shouldn't affect anyone else's.

*whew*

Lucky I didn't put my real phone number when Cely asked for it.

Otherwise...
