Viagra Spam

It's getting a bit more surreal. Here's what was in my inbox, this time around:

"hole went straight on like a tunnel for some way, and then dipped suddenly down, so tbfkm Alice had not a moment to think about stopping herself she found tjdmr down a very dark pidyuc."

Hello from a fellow geek in New Brunswick! I use Mozilla Thunderbird as an e-mail client. I have trained it to recognize my spam and non-spam and now it filters for me very nicely! I used to get like 10 spams per day, mostly pharmaceuticals and penis-enlargening thingies. Give it a try if you have a spam problem. :)

I run a spam filter, already. I used to get between 50-70 spams per day. Now I'm down to about two or three, and the ones that get through seem to be quite creative.

They're getting sneakier

It's a new type of spam, you've seen my complaints about the ones with my address in the subject line.

Basically, the newer spam filters(using Bayesian filtering, you can google it) "learn" by reading what you designate as spam and looking for patterns. By emailing bits of stories, the spammers are trying to fuck up that filter by feeding it "normal" stuff to increase the chances of false spam alerts. And then you'll get frustrated with the filter when it starts trashing emails from mom and turn it off.

At least that's what I think their intention is.

I don't mind some of the spam I've been getting, lately. They are often much more creative and entertaining than the emails I receive from web fans and web enemies! Check out this one. It's particularly amusing:

From: Obliviously H. Colloid
Subject: Knute Rockne liked bad loser. He said good losers lose too often.

How's yourself?
Home of huge cocks!
>> Change is not only likely, it's inevitable.
Thousands of big penises mpegs!
>> Just as iron rusts from disuse, even so does inaction spoil the intellect.
Lots of shocking massive cocks photos.
>> Wherever there is power there is age.
Exclusive real sucking perfomances.
>> I am defeated, and know it, if I meet any human being from whom I find myself unable to learn anything.
Wives who need huge cocks.
>> There is no knowledge, no light, no wisdom that you are in possession of, but what you have received it from some source.
18" Huge in small assholes!

Is it just me, or is 18" particularly excessive?

How can you say that, being married to me? Oh, I get it, you're just saying that so the other lay-days don't feel bad. Cha-ching!

Maybe. Unless you're a mare or cow in heat.
