Well, it's nice to see that some people in the world have no sense of irony. This guy makes his living sending out spam, and now he's pissed that he's on the receiving end. Bastard.

What goes around, comes around. In spades. Hypocrite. Here we have the self-proclaimed KING of spam, single-handedly responsible for one of the most hated annoyances on the 'net, for the unsolicited (or worse) bullshit ranging from LOWRATE MORTGAGES to VIAGRA to SNEAKERS to GAY MIDGET P0RN to INSURANCES to PENIS UPGRADES that fills millions of mailboxes each and every day, FINALLY getting a taste of his own medicine, and he has the fucking nerve to claim he's suffered an INJUSTICE? You can shove that double standard down an orifice of choice, asshole.

And then there's the matter of antiquated laws that were passed long before the information age started to complicate things. Like the fact electronic mail addresses STILL don't enjoy the same level of protection privacy-wise as their snail mail counterparts. Ten to one the rat is going to build his case around that obsolete bit of legislation and be awarded $$$ umpteen billion in damages to boot.

I don't know, the spam I get about penile enlargements, teen virgin girls, and Viagra annoy me more than those Pop Up ads.

Well, not being condescending I must however say that those ads are as easy to see coming as the
"100% free! Just pay us some money and you can have it for free!"-offers, if you hang around in those areas. [Smile]

My second preferred object of scorn is the work-from-home/get-rich ads,
"I started with Save-O-Rump, now I've become allergic to dust due to all the dollar bills
flying around in my mansion, choking the children and pets!!

(signed, Mr Raymond Real-Person)"


The internet. What has begun here?

If there's any justice in the world, somewhere a guy named Ray Real-Person's ears are burning. 8)

Spam is junk mail being sent through your letterbox. Pop up ads are someone following you around with a big sign saying "WIN BIG PRIZES! CLICK ON ME!" all bloody day. You can kick him up the arse to get rid of him for a bit, but he'll be back. Oh yes, he will be back.

I hate spam. It's the only thing in the world that makes me consider my genital size on a daily basis. Damn Viagra and Penis Enlargement ads.
