WTF? How many people read this and think “Oh, I’ll take one of those.”. I mean, they can’t even string together a proper sentence anymore. How the hell do they even sell any of this crap?

'Cause it’s magic! nod facetious smile

People are utter idiots. I’ve said this before.

It’s getting harder and harder for me to resist validating my email address for spammers. My inner grammar/spelling-nazi just wants to edit their missives and return them so freaking much. :smack:

See, its working already!

Not so much brain dead as not well translated from the original language. (Chineese?)

Bingo.
FWIW, I know several spammers. Most of them make more money in a day than I make in a week, and I make pretty damn good money.

Careless, selfish, greedy? For the most part. Braindead? Not even close.

I got one today signed George W. Bush. I didn’t open it tho, cuz I figured it wasn’t REALLY from the prez… :rolleyes:

And you haven’t killed them slowly and horribly because…?
