Spamvertisers Suck
by MixMaster Pre on Aug.13, 2009, under Protests & Rants
Internet advertising just plain honks me off. Especially when I want to read an article or see a video, and instead I get an upfront commercial.
Don’t those idiot advertisers realize that I put them on the Spamvertizers list in my head? And that I’ll never ever buy their product?
Well, the only way I will buy their product is if their advertising is so unmemorable that I forget them like that fat girl I met on Spring Break at the Wet T-Shirt contest, who, now that I think about, I remember all too well.
So now that I think about thinking about it, my memory for painful things like Blobbera and spamvertising does not portend well for the spamvertisers on my list!
(If there must be extraneous, meaningless crap attached to real content, it should be like the photoon of Megan shown here. I would be glad to explain why this is better than spamvertising, but if you don’t already see it, I’d be wasting my time.)
Spoofkers Should Be Fox-holed!

Those ratfriggin’ cokesacking hackers have gone too far! Closing down Twitter is one thing. But what they did to us… I say rendition them to deep, dark hole and make them watch Glen Beck until their eyes bleed!
I know I’ve got to calm down, but it’s hard to do. Because they ruined us.
I would not be surprised if Totally Beaugus is now known as the number one intergalactic site for male enhancement, although that isn’t anything like what we do. Those scum-sucking spammers somehow got our SMPT email thingie and went nuts with spam, spam and more spam.
From vavious names @ our email address approximately 1,768,798 “member engorgement” emails have gone out to people on our email list and to others all the way to out to ISPs on planets with rings.
What was the bummeriest was when my girlfriend, who got the spam-mail from our address wondered why I didn’t take advantage of our own product. That really hurt!
We’d been receiving about 200 bounce backs per hour, which is like a Chinese Water Torture for folks looking for Google Alerts that one of our blogs had been picked up.
Eventually, we called our webhost techies and we got SPFed which is something like sun block for email. Then we dumped our garbage email address and stopped the forwards. And we now should be okay.
Except for my Sheila who still doesn’t seem to understand. What can I tell her except I’m half Irish? And she knows which half.
I’m freakin’ ruined.
