Yes, get rid of that chain immediately. If it is causing you enough angst that you felt compelled to rail on it on an internet forum full of geeks then by all means take that sucker off and bury it deep in the swamp.

Get yourself a 3/32 SRAM 9-speed chain and get on with the show.

It is because of clicking chains that I carry suitable firepower to deal with such situations. Yeah, that's right; I've always got spare chains in my garage.
