Those thieving victims.
by schwim on Aug.30, 2008, under Spam
If you jail victims of theft, then eventually, you will run out of potential victims.
So says Olu Agbi, the Nigerian high commissioner, concerning the victims of 419 scams.
People who send their money are as guilty as those who are asking them to send the money.
Another of his quotable quotes:
It is not in the character of Nigerians to be engaged in this kind of scam.
This coming from the commissioner whose country had a scam named after it.
What? I have a desk.

No, I didn’t forget an ‘s’ at the end. I’m talking about Wired Magazine. I received the latest issue last week and after pulling out only the blow-in cards and pages with ads on both sides, I was left with about one article and 38 full page ads. I didn’t count the ads that didn’t span a full page.
I guess this is to be expected from a “technically savvy” magazine whose online polls only support Internet Explorer on Windows machines.
Luckily, my emo and 17 magazines still have plenty of content.
It seems I’m in a downward spiral

Dearest Peter,
Are you so fucking lazy that you can no longer copy & paste another’s hard work? You actually expect people to believe this bullshit? You sir, are not only a fucking moron, but you may be the laziest and most incompetent moron I’ve had the pleasure of receiving a 419 scam from yet. I’m considering giving you my money if you promise to purchase and ingest some ground glass and then chase it with some cyanide.
While receiving a tabasco sauce enema.
thanks,

Better luck next time.

In spite of Microsoft’s insistence that they’ve created the ultimate OS with Vista, it seems that most reports still have XP outselling it.
This is of course, in spite of the fact that XP is no longer officially sold. Need a copy of XP? Head on over to NewEgg, where a loophole gets exploited to sell legitimate OEM copies of XP Pro.
Oh and that whole deal where Ballmer insisted that Vista was the most secure OS ever? Yeah, he was just kidding.
Well, everyone’s allowed an off-day.

It seems that I’m finding myself unable to muster the linquistic prowess to have some fun and now am just using the verbal equivalent of a sledgehammer.

Before you give me any grief, keep in mind that a proper lady should never use texting abbereviations. Especially if she’s dying of cancer. God h8s ur abbrvs.
