You know, it's bad enough I get all this spam
in my email asking me if I want a payday loan, or do I want to enhance certain body parts, or get out of debt.


But, do they have to call me Susan? That isn't my name.

You'd think they could at least get that right.

19. Anybody else notice a ton more spam since AOL went pay for play?
I have, and I'm about to cancel, along w/ a nastygram to them about net neutrality and where I'm heading!

6. Uh-oh

I'm on your side. My spam hasn't tried to address me by name. They just don't seem interested in getting to know me.

10. Aren't you feeling the love from your pointless e-mails?
The spam you get from me does tend to address you by name though - albeit I don't offer to enlarge your member or cure erectile disfunction...still less pose as a former Nigerian oil-minister.

12. It's true.
You have yet to pose as a former Nigerian oil-minister.

16. If you WERE to go bald,
would you consider changing your name to Susan?

:silly:

17. On my old AOL account...
I used to have it start with a "J" and the first several letters of my last name. I got spam addressed to Jeff and just about every male & female name that begins with the letter "J" over the years: John, Jack, Jan, Jon, Jim, James, Janet, Jennifer, etc.
