I’m sick of all the spam.
\n
\nI’m sick of it filling up my inbox.
\nI’m sick of having to make sure my kids aren’t in the room when I check it, because there might be yet another picture of a naked woman, or a penis. Or worse oral sex being performed.
\nARRGH. Do you have ANY idea what it’s like to be asked … what’s she doing? By your 4 yr old?!!! All because you weren’t thinking? What’s worse *just as soon* as you click on it, you realize what it is the damage is done, and all you did was open the dang email.<\/p>\n

It seems like if you want to be on the net, then you have to have an email. You can either get gmail – which seems to do a pretty good job. Or some other site like that.<\/p>\n

I guess I have to run an email server on this site, but if I had a choice I’d disable it all together.<\/p>\n

I have not, nor will I ever get viagra ESPECIALLY FROM AN EMAIL!<\/p>\n

I don’t buy things from email, and please, PLEASE I’m BEGGING YOU DON’T BUY ANYTHING<\/strong> from email.<\/p>\n

I guess from now on I’m going to “view as plain text.” On pretty much all my email.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
