spam.

I signed into my email account this morning (....this afternoon....) and found this:


Ten? Really? Naturally I was curious to see if maybe my emails were getting caught in my junk filter, so I clicked on it:



Let's take a look. These are all coming from the same source, as you can see from the subject lines.

The problem I have with this spam (aside from the fact that I got ten of them between 4am when I checked after work and 3:30pm when I woke up) is that it's not interesting spam. There's no false promises of larger genitalia or naked women or even free Razrs.

Have spammers lost their creativity? What happened to the days where people were actually duped into opening these? Aside from the curiosity of who the sender is ("Muriel Melendez"? Really?), there is nobody out there who should fall for this. I wasn't tempted to open a single one of these... except maybe "hyena exquisitely," just to see what the fuck that means.

I'm not asking for more spam. I just want everyone to strive for quality. QUALITY OVER QUANTITY. If I got one awesome spam email, one that makes me laugh or even consider popping pills to enhance some body part, it would be worth the half second it took to click the "delete" button. With this shit, I just feel like I'm wasting my time.


Want another Red Hot Chili Peppers tune that I'm addicted to? Yes. You do.

Death Of A Martian (right-click, save as)

Like "Wet Sand," the whole song is awesome, but it really kicks in at 3:05.


Oh yeah. I have a ticket to see them at Xcel. That's right. Anthony Kiedis is going to get naked onstage... and I'm going to be there to see it.
