Annoying email pet peeves.

[Chantal Marchon]

1) Having 700 pieces of email and it is all spam.

2) Having a block sender control that does not work at all.

Recieving absolutely no e-mail from a real person.

I think the worst part about spam is not just that they send it to me, but that half the time it's for a market I'm not even a part of. Debt reduction. Mortgages. If these people knew anything about they would know or even vbe able to guess I have no use for this crap.

I think my worst email pet peeve is porn spam! As much as I like porn I don't need to hear about the farm animal orgie twice a day!

You think you've got it bad? Spammers are not only convinced that my cock is tiny, they don't even think I can get it up! Oh well, at least my husband is understanding...

Email peeves...a select sample

Spam annoys me. It annoys me more when I find myself tempted to click on it.

My sister in law, who hasn't had computer access regularly in quite some time, has discovered the joy of sending me every email joke ever written.

I'm annoyed by friends who NEVER write a normal freakin' email telling me what's going on in their lives (especially in response to my notes to them asking after their children and lives), but they spam me jokes and patriotic messages constantly.

I'm pretty sure that anyone who knows me well enough to have my email address knows that I will not look favorably on "Jesus loves you" messages. It's very tempting to send back "how to worship Satan in 5 easy lessons" but I just can't bring myself to do it.

My mother issues threats via email. It's kinda funny. The last one read "Dear Nora, you ARE expected to be here Sunday for your cousin's visit. Do not forget. Love, Mom"

For me...I get all these "you can add inches to your penis" spam email...and I don't even have one. I am a total female...and I am not going thru a sex change just so that these emails are correct.

 

[Chantal Marchon]

I wonder if I forwarded that lessons on Satan worship if some of these people would take me off there mailing lists?

 

[Ice Cold]

I don;t know... I keep receiving e-mail about some lost money that might be coming my way, or bank errors in my favor... and tongiht I was a contest winner... all I had to do was make a call and give a winning claims number.... who knew such riches were awaiting me on the web.

Here ya go, Chantal: How to Worship Satan

The next time I get a religious chain mail from my born again uncle, I'm sending him this.

 

[Nora]

hehe! type up a nice letter to go along with it, Cybergirly.

Dear Uncle Job,

I just had to write and tell you about the exciting new church I've joined! I've never felt such spiritual peace and contentment before. The people are really nice, too! Very welcoming to newcomers. Last week I was invited to a pot luck. Gosh these people know how to throw a party!

Here's the website, take a look around. I saw that they have a chapter in your area and I've already forwarded your email address to them so they can keep you up to date on socials and prayer meetings!

All my best,

Your loving niece.

I'm gonna steal this Nora, I love it.

hehehe it's a good thing this particular annoying uncle lives in a different state.

 

[Nora]

heheh! all yours, hon. Just make sure he doesn't forward it to your mom. Moms get itchy around stuff like that.

 

[cybergirly]

Nah.. my moms been trying to get off his mailing list for some time.

 

[Willing and Unsure]

1) Having 700 pieces of email and it is all spam.

I get about 700 pieces of email spam asking me if I want to increase my penis size. I'm still trying to figure out how that one is supposed to work

 

[ApplesMcgee]

I think it's kind of humrous...

I'm pretty heathly and happy and I'm at a great weight of like 155.

Why the hell would I want to lose like 30 pounds in 30 days?

For me...I get all these "you can add inches to your penis" spam email...and I don't even have one.

Are you sure you didn't open one? You've added inches to mine? Maybe it's just the AV . . .

 

[JerseyBoy]

When you get a friend who is new to the internet and they think they have become the original joke teller and that everybody loves gettting joke after joke after joke after joke

 

[Eagle70]

I pretty much echo the sentiments of everyone here already...

tons of porn emails
emails about debt consolodation and shit like that
the "increase your penis size" emails...god damnit, i'm happy with the size of my member, allright? I'm a fucking beast as it is, i dont think having it any bigger will make much of a difference

but above all else...the not getting a single email from a real person...EVER...thats what pisses me off the most. Fuck, it makes me feel like a loser

I particularly like the warning e-mails sent by well meaning but naive friends; hypodermic needles under the handles of gas pumps & in the ball pit at McDonalds (but it was written by a police chief?), KFC using scientifically engineered organisms instead of real chickens (hence the name change fron Kentucy Fried "Chicken".) At one point I started hitting reply to all and pointing out how gullible these people are for buying & forwarding this crap. Hasn't happened much since the first few . . . personnaly I think they just removed me from their mailing lists and are still out there rolling around in their paranoia, forwarding like crazy. . .

Don't forget about all the internet virus warnings they send you...especially when they tell everyone to DELETE a certain windows file!

Do they even bother to check if its a hoax? no....

And there are so many hoax exposure sites? Why is this difficult? If you just don't have the capacity to discern the obvious bullshit in these messages, check 'em out damnit!

By the way, my cousin got a check for $2000 just for subscribing to this thread. This is for real, I saw the check

Mmmm thank you kindly. But you were the one that opened it...since you got the inches and I didn't
