Targeted marketing

[j4]

I keep getting mail entitled "viagra soft tabs". If the spammers know I live in Cambridge, surely they should also know that I'm unlikely to suffer from the sort of softness that can be fixed with viagra?

Boy, I hate it when I have to work that hard for a crap pun.

Ah, this is the most insidious form of spam of all. It's parts 1, 2 and 3 of a 1,876-message set, and when you put the message-IDs of all 1,876 parts together, they form an audiostereogram of George W. Bush above text saying "VOTE FOR ME OR I'LL KILL ALL THE baaaaabyanimals."

Now I have a visual earworm
