Viagra invasion

My morning routine of email checking won't be complete without Viagra, and multitudes of it. Nope, not that there's really anything orgasmic about checking emails and nope I don't need it, my pole still stands mightily proud every morning even without my gentle coaxing of it (*evil maniacal laughs*). One of the first things I do when I sit in my chair and begin the day at work is to check my account in our own email server which is also housed in the office. Unlike Yahoo and Gmail which has the ability to filter spam, though not 100%, our MIS cannot figure a way how to stop the influx of these nuisance. Every morning an average of 10 floods my inbox and totalling to another 10 within the day.

Which explains obscene spam subjects like Viagra, or Growing Erection. Or weird ones like Increased Metabolism, Physical Performance, Exquisite Replica, 4ever Young, even Chopard watches. Also, the list wouldn't be complete without the names of fuckin' people who probably don't even exist. This morning really did it. From: Fuck Hard, Subject: Oral Medications. Jeezers.

haha maski sa yahoo may ganyan din. napupunta sa bulk folder. tas yung mga pangalan GHFOLMJd o kaya GHD_{PSJMFL<. dito sa ofis, nag-iispam din kame (utos ng kliyente) pero mas tedious.

i only get a lot of spam emails in my excite account. sa yahoo naman and sa gmail, they go directly sa bulk folder.

how do you get spam mails in your office email? we use MS Outlook, minimal or even 0.1% lang ang nakakapasok na spam.

i don't use outlook anymore because i have a non-existent computer. i'm a computer nomad. and our MIS in non-existent as well which explains my unfixed pc. right now im using a laptop which is not mine so i outlook may not be convenient because somebody owns this. hay! ang hirap ng buhay grrrr.

My favorite e-mail spam is the one from Nigeria asking for money. Do people really fall for that? :)

That's a classic spam email. And the countries range from different continents. Hahaha

Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family, Choose a f—king big television. Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed-interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose a three piece suit on hire purchased in a range of f—king fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the f—k you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing f—king junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, f—ked-up brats you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose a future. Choose life . . . But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin’ else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you’ve got heroin?
