Am I too fucking sensitive? - GoFuckYourself.com

run · 06-17-2001, 06:20 PM

I like quality products. I like to choose good shit. I like to spend money for good shit. I like the idea of me being in control of what i do and most of the times i make decisions on my own.

On the other hand, i get like 50 spam emails every day. 10 advertisements on the window of my car... People knocking on my door and trying to sell me shit i will never need in my entire life...

Every day im getting more and more MAD

about this situation. Makes me SICK when people try to push their products NO MATTER WHAT. I always try to contact the ISP if i get a spam email. Once I spent like entire week trying to find out who was sending me advertisements...

So please explain me, do you feel the same or is it just me being too fucking sensitive about this stuff?

I promised myself not to get involved into these useless discussions about what is what but sometimes just cant stop. Maybe im some kind of psycho or something.

I personally think it is you being too sensitive......... if you are on the net at all and give your email at all... and sometimes even if you don't, you are going to get junk mail....... in your snailmail and in your email. There isn't alot you are going to do to get it out of there except to put a block on the shit.

But unless it is just blatant bullshit, there isn't alot you are goinbg to be able to do about it. Alot would love to tell you you can do this or that, and I have tried it all.... but getting rid of it all is just not going to happen. Just delete it and go on is ABOUT all you can do.

Oh yeah, some of them really piss me off too if I am already in a shitty mood........ but I also found out if you respond to them, they see the email is alive and they will send you even more shit. Just don't respond and it will at the very least not get worse. They won't know if you are getting it or not, but if you respond, then you have verified a valid email addy to them. lol

This is just MY opinion........ not any real authority or anything, but spam is not going to stop no matter what you try and do.

well, my idea was that if i do what i can, internet will get better by at least 0.000001% or something like that

What really pissed me off one day is when i changed my email, and did not give it to anyone except my friends. In 2 weeks the first piece of shit dropped down from the sky. Now about 20 per day.

And why the hell would I need to buy VIAGRA???

Well I guess for the same reason I, being a woman, need to enlarge my penis........

Harvesters don't give a shit what your sexual intersts are, as long as you have a valid email. LOL

I have emails also that very few know about, but somehow they find them and before I know it I have an assload of spam in them all........ about all you can do is run the bulk email block, and block the addy's and delete them. LOL

I am one of the people doesn't really give a shit about spam and I'm more annoyed by people who eomplain about it. Most of it is what salespeople call "cold calling." Without cold calling (approaching people who haven't bought from you before), no business could exist.

I can recognize spam from the Subject line almost all the time. I just go through, flag it, and mark it "Read," unless it looks interesting. Now and then I get spam I like, and then I thank Heaven for spam.
