I’m really getting used to receiving all sorts of spam on this site, either through email comments, post comments, or otherwise. The one I received today has somehow become my all-time favorite, though, which may tell more about my sense of humor than I care to reveal. But here it goes…
[If you can't see this, it is an email from "Louisa Winkler," who informs me that "your life is crap"]
Something about someone taking the time to write an email to me to tell me that my life is crap…is pretty damn funny.
So this now leaves me wondering whether my life is crap because of the Greatest Cowboys by Jersey Number series, or perhaps because of my stint in the news regarding academic tenure at a certain Baptist university in the South (see also here, here, here, here, and more…). I certainly hope it’s not the series about the jersey numbers.
Well, if your life is crap, what kind of life is Louisa Winkler living when she cruises your blog and posts crap like that?
I wouldn’t worry too much about it. She must be a PO’d Patriots fan; 18-1, now THAT’s crap!
Below is my second favorite spam, received yesterday. Who needs a Juris Doctorate or a Master’s degree when you could buy a Masteer or a Doctoraate over Internet???!!!
