I don’t know about you all, (ok, well, I know about Rachelskirts because we’ve talked about it before) but I get rather a lot of spam. I usually browse through, laughing at the funnier subject lines that come across. Usually these funny ones are entirely random conglomerations of words, but occasionally the “personal male enhancement” spam messages have pretty funny subject lines.
I think I laughed harder at one of those lines today than I have ever laughed before at anything. Here it is: “You won’t need to furtively put socks into your trunks anymore!”
Whenever I have other spam messages that go something like “Tennis racquet Onion Child Bee Horse Mosquito Liquid,” the bit of diction in the former subject was a breath of fresh air.
What are your favorite spam message subject lines?
I never see spam–yay for gmail!

I get an outrageous amount of spam too. As a woman, I’m always amazed by how many inform me how to become “more of a man.” No, thanks!

I don’t get much spam that I actually look at… did you get my email yesterday?

1. “What are you favorite spam message subject lines?”
2. Idea thief.
3. You are henceforth on Fruit Loops probation.
No, other readers, those are not spam titles. I’m saving MY spam titles for a special project. That you may not steal.

Phil: I don’t “see” it so much as I make a point to go look at it. I think I’ve maybe gotten one spam message in my actual inbox in the past year or so.
Jamie: Yeah, I can imagine that’d be a little annoying for you and the rest of the women out there.
Rachelskirts: Yeah, so I screwed up a word. Thanks for letting me know. Also, I did not steal your idea, not intentionally, anyhow. Is a man not allowed to write about the spam he receives? Besides, as far as I knew you were saving up for NaBloPoMo next year, since that’s what the idea started as. By then, this post will have been long forgotten. I mean, let’s face it. By next month (which is only Saturday), this post will have long been forgotten.

Spam is the subject of the day? Huh?
Best Spam Title of the moment:
TV bounty hunter apologizes for use of N-Word
This one amuses me because of a recent Onion News Network video about a porn star.

Jace of Fuse!: Well, great minds and all that.
