Yes, I am wasting my time right now. It's my choice. I'll spend perhaps fifteen more minutes with you before I put you on permanent ignore. For now, it's worth my time to call you out as a worthless waste of bandwidth. Because even hard-working webmasters need a little entertainment.
You tell 'em Mishi! People like this obviously don't get a large amount of spam. If they did, their tune would be different. I honestly don't mind a little spam, but out of the 500 e-mails I got within the last 2 hours, over 300 of them were from my "best buddy setting me up on a blind date". When you get over 1800 per day, it gets excessive.

It also makes it hard to do business. I either have to wade through 1800 emails to find legit e-mails or I have to set up filters to delete them and hope that something important didn't get deleted as well.
