Special report concerning idiotic SPAM e-mails:
Idiotic Spam e-mail #1:
"Nick! Click here to get a cupon for a FREE Whopper Jr. Value Meal at Burgerking!"
So I click it, because I eat at BK a good bit on sundays as it's the cheapest place in Poplarville where I go to church. You have to sign up for at least one partner offer of sending more spam. I don't really mind getting more SPAM at that address as it's all that goes there, so I do it.
THEN they inform me they need my credit card to charge me a shipping and handling charge for the cupon. How much is this charge? $4.95! I think the value meal is LESS than that actualy, but I'm sure it's not MORE than that. Heh...
Other types of annoying stupid SPAM:
Porn spam. Thanks but no thanks. If I wanted porn I'm sure I could find it.
Child porn spam: I dunno if anyone else who reads this has gotten it, but I got one once, it was one of those "disguised" e-mails and it opened up with a full page of a much too young girl naked. I'm sure I could have reported it but it's probaby based in some little country where that is legal... Eek.
Penis enlargement e-mails: Again thanks but no thanks, mine's just fine.
Breast enlargement e-mails: Ummmmm... I have manbreasts, sure, but I want them SMALLER NOT LARGER!
E-mails about home loans, mortgage, or re-mortgaging my home... I DONT FREAKING HAVE A HOME YOU IDIOTS!!!!
Check your credit history online! - Yeah, right. I'm gunna give you my credit information online and let you ruin my credit record. Sure.
Ok, ok, I realize that most of these are sent out automaticaly and randomly, that being why I get things about mortgages and breast enlargement...
But it's still stupid.
Espically the free whopper jr meal for $4.95 s/h.
But the best SPAM I ever recieved? Well, besides the can of SPAM my friend allison gave me as a joke one year for my birthday... It was the e-mail with the subject: "Nick! You've got money coming out of your butt!!!!!!"
