I think the joke of the line is its lack of inclusiveness, since many of us are women (but have large penises anyway).
(I have never received breast augmentation spam. I guess if you can actually do it, you don't spam for it).

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
The penis one is more common. And indiscriminately sprayed across the email landscape.
I like the funny of the assumption that the size of my penis needs enlarging.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
What flea said. (And I've never seen breast augmentation spam either -- if there are breasts in my spam, they're usually attached to barlY leg111al t33nz copier oatmeal waterpik.)

Yup.

Ann, that's a ferret.
OK. I'll withdraw the comment.

Ditto.

While we may occasionally mention Buffy or Buffista-related goods, please don't spam us. Thanks. Besides, we all have large penises already.
Going back a bit, I would suggest adding "Spam will be deleted" to this bit. Maybe:

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
What about 'is likely to be deleted'? That way we leave ourselves the room for our discretion so it's clear that the community is deciding what's spam and what's not. It's might be hard to tell for some people, because we do promote (our own) products from time to time.

Natter is discouraged in this thread too, but not deleted.
Thanks, Sue. The original bullet did include bureau, and I took it out.
Maybe edit it to:
*We talk a lot. Most of our ramblings are in the Natter threads, but almost any thread is fair game. However, chat is discouraged in all administrative threads, including Bureaucracy, Buffistas Building a Better Board, and Lightbulb. Natter posted in Sunnydale Press, our general announcements thread, and Apocalypse, our personal announcements thread, will be deleted.

Yep, that was the intended joke. I'm sure breast enlargement spam exists, but it's not nearly as common.
Either version of the spam deletion notice works for me, but I agree that "is likely to be"'s wiggle factor might be a good thing.
