I mean I get a lot of spam every day and most of it gets caught by my filters and it&#8217;s not that much of a problem except for the amount; but, I have to visually scan to make sure <em>real<\/em> mail has not been misfiled in the Junk folder.  The subject lines are really getting to me.  Subject lines like:<\/p>\n<p><em>No woman can resist a man with a big<\/em> **** &#8212; news flash, unless you intend to flash this equipment by dropping your drawers at every opportunity, including public events, how would any woman know? Second news flash &#8211; no woman privy to such a display would give a guy a second look no matter how big the ****.<\/p>\n<p><em>Be the envy of your friends<\/em> &#8212;  Do guys make a habit of dropping their pants and checking measurements when they go out with the other guys? Weird and rather disturbing, if you ask me.  Women seldom, if ever (I don&#8217;t know every woman in the world so I&#8217;ll go with seldom) exchange bra sizes.  Why would we? Who&#8217;d care unless it was for a shopping trip. According to the volume of spam with similar subject lines it seems men do this comparison all the time.  Weird.<\/p>\n<p><em>Forget the foreplay when you have a big ****<\/em> &#8212;  No wonder so many men have problems with relationships.  Even if you had the Washington Monument in your trousers, no woman wants to skip the best part of love making &#8212; the cuddling.<\/p>\n<p><em>Put an anaconda in your trousers<\/em> &#8212;  Yuck, now there&#8217;s an image no woman wants to deal with.<\/p>\n<p>The only people these ads can possibly be aimed at is teens who don&#8217;t know any better or don&#8217;t know who to talk to, or men\/teens who are so insecure they&#8217;ll believe anything.  If a person had at least two neurons in their craniums, they&#8217;d know better.  And yet they&#8217;re still being sent out, which means somebody has to be clicking on them or replying to them.<\/p>\n<p>I know that E.D. is a very real problem but none of these ads are ever going to solve the problem.  Are men so embarrassed that they&#8217;d rather take medical advice from spam than a doctor?   If you&#8217;re reading this and are even remotely tempted, let me advise you&#8211; don&#8217;t answer these spam email ads.  NEVER EVER take advice on &#8230; well this isn&#8217;t dating advice is it&#8230; or anything from spam.  Get a good book out of the library and listen to your girlfriend, wife, or significant other &#8212; if a medical problem talk to your doctor.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever you do don&#8217;t answer no matter what they promise &#8212; it&#8217;s all vapor, smoke, and mirrors. As long as even one in a million people respond, they&#8217;ll keep sending it out and as a woman, well, I don&#8217;t need a bigger **** in my trousers.  Since I keep getting these ads I can only imagine what a wonderful screening job they do before sending out their crap.<\/p>\n<p>Note: Write to your congress critters and tell them you want a real anti-Spam act passed.  No, you don&#8217;t want this crap in your mailboxes.  And no, the spammers don&#8217;t have the <strong>right<\/strong> to deluge us with this patently offensive drivel!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve just about had it with spam.
