When people send you links

If somebody, it doesn’t matter who, sends me a link without telling me what it is I will not ever click the link. Depending on various things, I may respond with “You sent me a link. What is it?” If they do not describe what the link is and why I should click it, I ignore the link and move on.

A few months ago my sister texted me a link to a video. I was in a charitable mood and responded “I usually do not watch videos people send me even when I know what they are. Who is this person? What are they talking about? Why should I watch the video?”

Rather than answering any of my questions, her response was “Just watch it”. Naturally, I did not watch the video. I had given her fair warning and a chance to tell me what the video was and why I should watch it. Rather than pointing that out and having her get mad at me, I simply did not reply to her text.
