Spam is fun!

[doranwen]

OK, tonight I just had to share my spam e-mail titles. The reason I started looking at them was because of one that said: "Artie said he was just eating like he would eat in front of anyone." There's an X-Men fanfic where Artie, the kid with the forked tongue in X2, has his whole jaw more snakelike (or something like that), and as part of his mutation, has to only eat raw meat. The line wouldn't work in the fic, but just the spelling of the name, and what it said totally reminded me of the fic. It was a little different from the usual sort (not to mention that it was dated Friday, March 21, 2003).

Let's take a look at tonight's round-up, shall we?

There's the typical enhancement ad: "Increase Your Penis Size 1"
No collection of spam would be complete with out the Paypal one: "your e-mail has been change" This one amuses me slightly. Was it more pennies, nickels, dimes, or quarters?
Then there's the enigmatic "rollicking". I'll leave its interpretation up to you.
The obscure: "They are usually only blocked in straight cash requests." This, according to avian_dryad, sounds like bank robbers have just been stopped.
The incomprehensible: "Go a cacao"
The incomplete: "tolerate eccentric" Ava's words on that are, "sounds like a motto: and remember kids, always tolerate eccentric".
The momentous: "It's Time"
Of course, there's the coherent ads: "Three Steps to the Software You Need at the Prices You Want"
And last, but not least, there's the futuristic out-of-season: "Valentine's Day Gifts News !! 749562" dated Monday, January 18, 2038. Apparently at that time in the future, I will actually have a *use* for Valentine's Day, hmm?

Lol at the last line!

Oh dear, it just occurred to me that you'll be fifty-something in 2038. Heehee.

Have fun,
Ava

Lol, yeah, I had discovered this once. Was trying to fix its syndication for LJ, but apparently it just doesn't work right. Or maybe it's just never updated any more?

There is a syndication for it on LJ, but the site itself doesn't update very often anymore. The last update was in October. Too bad, too, because the average level of humor there was pretty high... :(

See ya,

This icon was actually based on the subject line of some spam I found in my inbox one day. I couldn't stop wondering what "villainy boxer shorts" would look like, so I made some.
