So I get to the office this morning and turn on the computer. (It’s about the only thing I’m able to ‘turn on’ lately. Poor Yip. Poor, poor Yip.)
I check Geekfest while waiting for my email to download. After a few minutes I go to the email file. There they are; 37 emails. 37! WTF?! I’ve never gotten 37 emails at one time. Not even when I advertise for free sexual favors on Craigslist.
(In fact, when I do that, the only responses I get are along the lines of, ‘Yip, go away. Ain’t nobody interested in whatever it is you’re giving away.’)
So I’m thinking, ‘Damn! 37 emails! I’m popular all of a sudden!’
I look at the mail. They’re all EXACTLY the same!
All 37….exactly the same.
Something like: Cialis Soft-Tabs now available! By mail! PharmCo is proudly announcing this limited-time offer for YOU, Yip! Your erectile dysfunction will be a thing of the past!
My first thought is, ‘How the hell did PharmCo know?’
(It’s not true, by the way. I can get… *ahem*… ‘excited’ just thinking about Officer Malone. Or that Italian dude on the luge in Vancouver.)
Damn. 37 emails, not one of them is legit. I ain’t so popular after all. Spam, I think is what it’s called.
Do people actually fall for this shit?! I certainly don’t.
Oh! The postman is finally here! Hope he has my Cialis order.
