Trends in Spam and some other things.
So some weeks it is all about the penis and how you can make it bigger, and don't you wish your penis was bigger? And every time I get one I think "yes, if I HAD a penis there is a possibility I would want it to be bigger, and gosh, I might even fall for your misspelled ungrammatical bullshit of a spam email! Ha! Not!"
Then for about a month, all the spam was in japanese or chinese or korean or one of those languages that uses characters that come in half as characters and half as that crazy dingbat wombat symbol font. Yes, also so likely to fall for spam emails that are written in languages I do not comprehend, if they are even actually written in the language and not just an assortment of crazy fonts!
But this week, the spam subject lines are all "It's Isiah :)". "It's Deanna :) " . "It's Steve :)" As if I'm going to think to myself "OH! Deanna! Of course! Let me open you up, run all your executable files, and find out why you are emailing me!" HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
And you need to go read this: Sadly is the TRUTH. Stuff like that is really the only reason to occasionally hang around kids. For a few hours. Tops.
Can I go home now?

Except that I TOTALLY almost do when I get one of the spams that has a familiar name. I don't. But ALMOST.

Mine all said that this week too, after the last week or so when I got about a million "message undelivered" ones - go away moronic spam!

I got one today that says "It's Jesus :)"
Do you have the Akismet spam catcher on this blog? Some of that comment spam is even funnier, but I won't list what I get here, for fear the google robots will index you...you don't want that traffic!
