Spam as affirmation

(also posted to alt.poly)

Since I know I'm going to have to slog through 200 spam subject lines a day in my "block" folder, I've started to consider the exercise as a sort of affirmation. My "block" folder is a universe where everyone can have exactly the body parts they want, have as much sex as they want with whoever they want to have it with, have as much money and drugs as they want, work at home, have lots of friends who want to talk to them and trust them with huge amounts of cash, have lots of people looking at their web pages, have access to free cable and the innards of their DVDs, get fabulously cheap mortgages, win lots of prizes, and so on.

Nice universe if you can afford it...
