And What Do You Make of This?

Got some spam about metal burnishing or cartridge molding, or something — it wasn’t clear — in appalling English.

Didn’t even mean to open it, but I did so by accident, by clicking on my email server’s site after checking its source code.

Well, here’s what I saw in twelve jillion lines of code:

Email: Allison@rekotechnology.com 

Allison?

Grammarly? Grammarly must really suck wad, if this email went through their filter. The headline, the text, and everything were all garbled and tense-challenged. It read like a Kamala Harris off-the-cuff comment.

Oh, Grammarly, what big Oys you have….

. . . sounds like a Joe Biden off-the-cuff comment.

Rihar Responds to SpamNN

Rihar was kind enough to share this interaction. You lazy people could learn a lesson.

Rihar:

I got a “wrong number” text today (Wednesday) from someone at CNN asking to interview me.

I’m not Alice.

But I decided to reply anyway and not tell him it’s a wrong number. I probably should have strung him along much longer. I just hope I kept him from exploiting this poor person for a while.


***
Email from CNN guy:

Alice…

First and foremost, may God continue to watch over Payton and lead her in her fight to a speedy recovery. And thank Heaven Heather is OK.

I produce CNN’s lead show and national – and international – flagship morning program CNN THIS MORNING with Don Lemon, Poppy Harlow and Kaitlan Collins

As we continue our reporting tomorrow on the tragic incident, we would be honored if you and Heather would be amenable and available for a live interview on the show tomorrow .

At a mutually convenient time slot between 6:30- 9 AM ET (5:30-8 AM CT)

6+ Minutes

I can bring you to a studio in KC. Or you can join us virtually using CISCO WEBEX – I sent you a link and you can log into our remotes system from any computer or device. Plenty of transmission options.

Please give this special request priority consideration. CNN THIS MORNING is one of the few CNN programs that is broadcast live on ALL CNN OUTLETS, including CNN USA, CNN International, CNN Airport, CNN Digital, CNN Mobile and CNN.com . That means, your message will resonate with millions upon millions of CNN THIS MORNING viewers here and globally. And on the largest, most respected and trusted news network in the world. And help our vast audience keep praying for Payton’s recovery.

Thanks for your attention to this. I await your prompt and positive response.

Best

BRINGING THE WORLD HOME!

Hey! On re-reading this, I discover that “S**** F******” (just a simple way of hiding his actual name) kind of looks like a swear. So be it. — Oppo

Back to Rihar (not Alice) 1 hour later:

Can you be more specific about what you’d like to discuss?

CNN guy:

How Heather is doing. Remembering the incident and how she is using her fortitude and positive attitude to drive ahead in life and cheerleading. How Payton has always been a fighter and how heather feels her strength will pull her through. How the team will step up this weekend in florida after this tragedy and with Payton in their minds and hearts will compete stronger and better.

Nothing screams “I’m so busy I can’t be bothered with serious journalism 4 u” like using lowercase letters and omitting punctuation.

And, uh, not pushing an agenda or steering the interview in a particular direction. . . .

Rihar (not Alice) 1 hour after last text:

Would I be able to record our entire interview to ensure nothing is misunderstood?

CNN guy:

It will be live. And I would send u a link after the show.

Rihar (not Alice) 45 min after last text:

Thank you for the offer. I decline the interview.

Rihar actually did have a friend who found a link to the story that CNN was trying to dredge up. Which is more than I can say for you lazy people!

Spam! We Have a Possible Winner

In today’s trash:

Excellent beat ! I would like to apprentice while you amend your site, how could i subscribe for a weblog web site? The account aided me a applicable deal. I were a little bit familiar of this your broadcast offered shiny clear idea.

Depending on how she’d look in a knit miniskirt next to Bob Hope, we might have an apprentice in our future.

.

On a side note, someone ought to tell these Chinese (or Japanese?) spammers that when they hear English-speakers talk like that, it’s a parody at best; it’s not how we really expect them to sound.

Spam! Now, This One Took Me By Surprise

In the course of deleting all sorts of crazy emails (a lot of them having to do with some sort of marijuana oil extract), this one caught my eye.

If you consume CNN and BBC’s coverage of China, I am sure you are under the impression that China is a really screwed-up country.

The West has a very biased view of China. China’s rise is bad for us? Is our system superior?

What is good for the West’s government is definitely good for Wall Streets and the bankers, but not necessarily good for the people.

China has a lot to offer to the average guy in the West.

Do you have a business? Consider selling to China.

Do you want an incredible life experience like no others? Perhaps you can relocate to China!

What is China really like?

We share some you tube videos of Westerners living in China. Check the videos out and perhap it will change your view of China.

Or Perhaps you can visit China and seek out new opportunities there!

Any takers?

Do you have a business? Or any private, personal, not-for-publication business at all? Is your father a senator? VP? P? Consider selling to China.

Or, perhaps you can relocate to China. And seek out new opportunities there!

Postscript: Two Chinese guys just showed up at my front door. They look agitated. I’ll be right back after I straighten this out. Hey! One has a bowler hat he uses like a frisbee! Cool!

Spam! You Know, I’ve Kind of Taken This Chick’s Comments To Heart

Throughout this great scheme of things you’ll receive a B- with regard to hard work. Where exactly you actually lost me was first in all the facts. You know, it is said, the devil is in the details… And it could not be much more accurate here. Having said that, allow me inform you exactly what did work. Your writing can be rather convincing and that is most likely the reason why I am taking an effort in order to opine. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, even though I can easily notice a jumps in reasoning you come up with, I am definitely not sure of just how you appear to connect the details that produce your conclusion.

Since she does not make it a regular habit of taking an effort to opine, I’m inclined to think that her remarks are directed toward Walrus rather than me. My critics make it a far more regular habit to opine (even when I lose them in all the facts). But no one is definitely sure how Walrus appears to connect the details that produce his conclusions — yet he does.

Spam!! IMAO: Making You Psychologically and Morally Ill for Decades

“Oh my goodness! an amazing article dude. Thanks However I’m experiencing concern with u.”

I couldn’t refrain from commenting…

I don’t want to nitpick any more than necessary, but the commenter could have refrained. As far as I’m aware, there is no law compelling him to comment.

The rest of the comment is pathetically effusive praise.

Two messages received right in a row:

… Can someone recommend Gym Wear? Thanks xox

And from a different account:

Can someone recommend Garters and Garter Belts? Cheers xox

What are the odds of two people having such similar requests? Sounds like they’re not qualified to get dressed, much less be online.

Meta Spam:

Quit crowding me. This is my spam site.

But there is one particular factor I am not necessarily too comfy with so while I make an effort to reconcile that with the actual core theme of your position, permit me see what the rest of the subscribers have to point out.

That’s your cue, rest-of-the-subscribers!

Just don’t mess with Zouton.

I mean, I do know it was my choice to read, nonetheless I truly thought youd have something attention-grabbing to say. All I hear can be a bunch of whining about something which you could fix for those that werent too busy in search of attention.

I’m afraid that this could have come from any one of you.

You can read reviews to see what other owners have to say about the chainsaws you are considering. You can also find out more about chainsaw reviews by looking at the manufacturer’s website.

I’m very afraid that this could have come from any one of you.
