How can anyone even think of letting their kid get an e-mail address these days? Everyday I find that I get more and more spam with sick, disgusting porn pictures in it!
No more! I am almost afraid to check my email anymore. God forbid that I do so at work or school!
BTW, a close-up of a girls spread crotch does not equal sexy. It equals yucky. When I want to, I will go to medical school to become a GYN. Who the hell decided that it was really hot to shove a camera up a girls crotch?
Ya know, I have 2 e-mail accounts (one through work, one on yahoo) and I never get spam on either of them. Unless you count idiot e-mails from idiot co-workers.
And I NEVER get porn spam. I might enjoy that.
I only get “Free Psychic” and “Mortage (sic) loans” and “Legal advice for pennies a day!” spam. Of course, I don’t need any psychics, I don’t have a mortgage, and I’m not in any legal trouble.
My mom however, gets loads of spam. Stuff like “preteens spreading it for you”, “extreme colon cleansing”, and “teens and farm animals”. Also, since she’s female (I assume we all know that everyone will get spam for the gender that isn’t their own), she gets penis enlargement ads, one say she could lengthen it by a FULL QUARTER OF AN INCH!
I don’t get any porn spam, or disgusting stuff. I haven’t even got the Nigerian bank account scam letter.
I know this is the pit, and practical advice is usually shouted down with, “Shut up! I just want to rant!” but, can you set your email program to not show images automatically? If, instead of a graphic graphic (as it were) you see a little icon that says teen_on_goat_actionXXX.jpg, you can just delete the email.
My boys (five and seven years old) have e-mail addresses. And they can only receive e-mail from me, their mother, my sister, and my grandparents. And each other. Courtesy of my provider’s e-mail controls. It’s a pain to have to add new people they want to correspond with to the filter lists, but sadly, I have no choice.
No, sorry. I’ve gotta meet the burglar at 9:30.
We’ll have to do this one tomorrow.
I just want to know for sure if you think we can still make it by the deadline?
I think its become REALLY bad in the last year with the internet advertising economy hitting the shitter. I remember thinking – “yeah popup killers are useless, you only get popups when going to porn or warez sites”
Now a lot of legitimate sites bombard you with popups. Its kind of sad.
