Hahaha. Or anybody you work with, ever.

I have a friend younger than me who does this - she's been on the internet for years and should freaking know better. I just junk all her emails, so if she ever sends me somehting important, she's a bit stuffed.

My father-in-law used to trash my inbox with shit until I fucking told him to stop.

This is resonating with me thanks to my mum's partner using her email account to send me annoying quantities of forwarded 'hilarious' emails.

A colleague of mine from my previous job still sends me forwarded junk - and apparently forwards them to everyone on her contact list. Why would anyone do this?! I felt bad at first about junking her mail just in case she wants to keep in touch (we got along well when I was working there) but then it just got too annoying.

Roz, Monday, 21 April 2008 07:19 (seventeen years ago)

old people and coworkers.
my aunts and former coworkers never email me anything but forwards.

My mom's boyf is a total NASCAR douchebag (and is in fact the son of a NASCAR driver) and therefore channels Bill O'Reilly. He spammed me with wingnutganda until I issued a cease and desist on that bullshit. I cannot bear to think what he must be reading up on for this election cycle.

i got some glenn beck shit the other day

My mother had to ask one of her coworkers to stop sending her Xian junk mail.

one of the many perks of being on ILX is you know ethan's gonna get you all the good ones and you can let the rest go to your spam folder.

Hm. There was a third baseman for the Giants/Cubs/Red Sox of that name (Leee's all time favorite player in fact) but no driver that I can find.

Home Security
I've disconnected my home alarm system and de-registered from the Neighborhood Watch.

I've got two Pakistani flags raised in the front yard, one at each corner, and the black flag of ISIS in the center.
The local police, sheriff, FBI, CIA, NSA, Homeland Security, Secret Service and other agencies are all watching the house 24/7.
I've never felt safer ... and I'm saving $49.95 a month!
