The Brain

From time to time I check my spam folder to see if any interesting hobby marketing stuff has ended up among the adult dating and enhancement stuff. One email made me sigh. "You have 7 messages from girls". Can't they at least bother to make the spam remotely plausible?
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

Today I only have "3 messages from girls". They'll get there eventually.

I only have 1 girl, but she's "Hot & Russian".

To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Maladict

I'm only getting emails from Donal Trump. That's even worse than the funeral services spam I got earlier. :(

Malthus

I get phoned at least twice a day by some nice Indians offering duct cleaning services.

Best part: our house has hot water heating. It lacks ducts.

Somehow, the joke my kid came up with years ago was that what they were talking about was duck cleaning. Nothing worse than letting your ducks get dirty.

i get Cantonese autocalls. every time i block a number a new one pops up.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

I get regular (maybe once a month) autocalls about being in a car accident that wasn't my fault :lol:

It's particularly weird because I can't drive so I feel like if I was in a car accident, it probably would be my fault :ph34r:
Let's bomb Russia!

I like the calls I get from the "Legal Enforcement Unit of the Federal Reserve" - they are warning me my account with them has illegal activity.

I get constant calls from "my lawyer" who insists I need to roll over on Chins Ciafalaccio or "the feds" will make sure I spend life in "pound you in the ass prison".

On my end it's about my extended car warranty, which may have expired.  WTF, why is the entire world's business that my extended car warranty may have expired?  It seems like everyone and their grandmother knows about it and wants to help me rectify it.

And it's always the second notice.  WHY DID I MISS THE FIRST NOTICE!

crazy canuck

I got an alert that DG's warranty expired and that if I did not pay to renew it my car would be taken.

A refreshing change to being told that revenue agents were about to arrest me if I didn't press 1 and pay the identified account immediately.

I get constant calls from "the legal department of..." ... well I don't know where, because I hang up before the robot voice gets any further.

Does Languish have a legal department?  :unsure:
