double-scrubs her e-mail

We'll see. I just got a new round of penis-enlargement spam in my gmail, which is weird...but it wasn't from Buffista addresses.

so it was clearly spam.

That's what you'd like to think, don't you?

Of course the first hint that it was spam was the scary grammar.

You are not the first person to comment on that!

I'm guessing we're all about to start seeing spam from each other - it looks like whoever got into Trudy's email is now spoofing the recipients' email addresses.

Actually, last week I got spam from Kat that was identical to the one that I apparently sent out this morning. Asshats.

No spam from buffistae for me yet. C'mon people! I need herbal vi@gr@ as much as the next woman.

? Do you have to keep the lines of communication open with D?

No, I don't. I am tempted to reply with the definitions of "amicable" and "passive aggressive" and note the lack of overlap.

However, a less unhygienic gesture than my previous offering would be to return the fancy box with a note suggesting he sell it and use the proceeds to buy some lessons in manners. Don't think Jilli would approve of this one, though.

I'll probably donate it to the next charity auction that comes along.

Why are anarchists such fucktards?

Argh, sorry, sweetie! Oddly, I'm sure that the teabaggers felt the same way last week when some people yelled racial at homophobic slurs at congressmen. of course, then, I was a lot more schadenfreude about it. One of my favorite blogs expressed it thusly:

Just imagine it – you’ve got an angry crowd of people who are fully prepared to vote against anything so you don’t even have to stand for something and then some asshole you were assured would give a solid “Let’s meet ‘em at the state line” war of northern aggression speech lets a macaca slip out and you end up spending a week trying to spin that only a small portion of your supporters are ig’nant bigots.

Which blog, Vortex? Because my initial reaction to that paragraph is that there were so many "isolated incidents." Or, as Ian Fleming said in Goldfinger, "Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action."

Okay, so I gave in to temptation and replied:

Seriously? I understand that your feelings are hurt and you are disappointed. I'm disappointed, too. But that is some passive aggressive shit and I don't deserve it. I have been honest with you from start to finish and truly care about you. Just because you included a winky doesn't change the underlying sentiment.

I almost didn't respond at all, but you solicited input on things you "did wrong." If you are truly interested in that kind of info, well, here it is. The fact that your attitude towards me changed on a dime once the relationship ended? You might want to examine that behavior.

I'll probably regret it. But hey, I can always block his email.

it looks like whoever got into Trudy's email is now spoofing the recipients' email addresses.

I felt all neglected when I didn't get Trudy's spam. But it is all better now that I have Teppy's.

I got the TeppySpam and I did notice that it was not as fabulous and charming as actual TeppyMail would surely have been. I propose that if we're all going to be spamming each other anyway, we should be twice as gorgeous and sexy and witty at each other in order to keep the balance!
