Some days ago, in the morning while wading through a night's worth of spam to my work e-mail account, I came on an e-mail titled

"I want to get some advice about the interface between your system and our system."

with a .kr (i.e. Korea) sender's address.

Mentally classified it as porn spam and sent it to the spam folder.

Now found out that a Korean end customer wants technical advice.

Yea, those darned porn spammers are always wanting to interface with my system. ;)

Although usually it's a .ru address ...

Every so often I misread a thread title. Today I was sure I opened '(sigh) the dangers of an engineer's midget'

I am not impressed.

Can't be as bad as "Tell me about your little dog(s)"...Yeah, I thought it said dongs...
