Lately I’ve been reading my spam. I’m not sure why, maybe I’m just bored with deleting it. I’ve found out a few interesting things:
- Spam links usually don’t work. Most of the time I actually bother to click the links, they’re dead.
- The generic viagra you can buy online will likely either kill you or give you a really bad headache. Or so I am told by my well-informed wife after we laughingly read their site and its information page.
- Russians humor does NOT translate very well. I was a little confused as to why a russian humor site would spam me in the first place, but whatever. In case you’re not convinced, let me give you a small sample:
Gorbachev and Raissa are flying in an aeroplane. Raissa and Gorbachev: “If we threw vodka out of the plane, everybody would kiss our hands and feet.” The pilot: “If I threw you two out of the plane, everybody would kiss my ass.”
Some of the jokes are amusing, like this one:
A Chukcha visited America: “Life is just like at home - for a dollar you can buy anything, but a ruble is good for nothing!”
