in the junk mail

May 02, 2008 09:07


SO while spam mail is always annoying I do find it occasionally highly entertaining.    Only occasionally.  Usually when lack of sleep is involved…but that is kind of the norm for me.

There is always the running gag of the women getting spam for penis enlargements…especially for the lesbians.  Not the mention the amount of dying aristocrats from Asian and African countries.   And common those peddlers on the street need to sell their replica junk somehow.  Everyone needs to modernize.

But there are always other things that are fun.  For starters the spam at the health center is horrid.  Lets just say there was a network crash, spam filtered done in, and the new system has some kinks.  Until the time they get it running I’m getting continual amount of useless mail mixed in with vital meeting information.

The best part of this is that the spam isn’t sent to me,  but the Department of Research mail list.  So e-mails starting like

Dear Dept of Research,

I am the lawyer of a rich Argentina man named Zazala of Research who had recently passed away.

Or…

Hey Dept of Research!!!

Remember me from that party last week.  I remember you and you make me so horny.  Check out my webcam!

Although I will admit, sometimes research gets me in the mood as well.

Some other stories are there.  Like you know how when Microsoft Outlook has that little section in the bottom right of the screen when you get new mail.  Imagine it going to your entire staff with the title “creamy, smooth and white” and then the entire staff starts bursting out laughing for a good 5 minutes.   Or when you get an article saying its about Obama’s campaign and in reality its for Viagra.

May favorite is looking in my own personal junk mail.  Did you know I receive spam…FROM THE FUTURE!!!  Yes I have a whole 2 pages of spam from 2030 to 2038.  I even have next weeks spam.  And let me tell you there is a lot of Viagra in the future
