A Well Ruminated Rant

Hey.
If somebody showed up in your neighborhood and wanted to sell you drugs or porn or get-rich-quick schemes...or wanted to loan-shark you...you'd be in your rights to call the cops and have them hauled away. So why do these losers think they are welcome in your e-mail Inbox? As far as I'm concerned, they aren't.
I hate these spammers with an intensity I reserve for terrorists, genocidal regimes, hardcore political extremists, bubonic plague, toxic sludge, thermonuclear destructive devices and black holes. An "online pharmacy" is no better than a narcotics pusher. I don't need money so bad that I'm going to borrow from somebody who solicits me over the Web. This household already belongs to a consumer survey (a legit one) so we legally can't join another. The porn spammers' approaches are so tasteless that I want to see them all arrested. I see hundreds of these messages everyday in the SpamTrap and delete them unread. And I wish I could call an online cop to bash in their memory with a cyber nightstick.
I want people to e-mail me for me, not for the money they think I have or the needs I don't have.
