I get so many spam e-mails. I just keep erasing them and still get more!

I'm thinking of making a mailing list. This would be my spam list! Every time I get a spam e-mail their e-mail goes into the list. Then whenever I get a spam e-mail, I forward it to everyone in that list!

Do you think this will cut down on the idiots who send me spam?

When I was in college, the roommies and I used to get all kinds of snail-mail "spam" in the form of credit card offers, 10 CD's for a penny, magazines, etc... and they would all include a pre-paid postage return envelope. I used to open one of the offers, use that pre-paid envelope, and stuff all the other offers in it, and mail it back to them. Didn't solve anything, but it was funny to me.

For everyone you email, most likley you will receive a "MAILERDEMON" email, so really you're just hurting yourself. Most of these emails come from a system of bots and broken links etc.

I hate spam so much, it really should be illegal. People should not be able to think they can contact anyone and send them as much crap as they want.

I clean out my spam 2 days ago, I just checked it...I got 0 as of right now. woot.gif

As for snail mail, I still use the pre-paid envelopes and send all their crap back to them, I cut my name and address off of all of it first, but they get their crap back and I used their money doing it.

May have saved them money if they reuse it, which they will.

Shred it first, then send it, message is pretty clear at that point :).

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Good game so far.  Solid trench battles, two young well built defenses, and my 2 fave coaches.  Stafford is really damn good.  SEA OL is overperforming.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      Okay then. To me that means Russell Wilson was Coryell. Because I see the proposition completely in the Russell Wilson punt/pass put it up for grabs mold. Count on the receiver to catch it or knock it down.    And the reason I thought that was the intent with Legette is the abysmal downfield game from 2023. As in, there was barely any.   I look at it as if… the result of a deep attempt isn’t as important as the opponent understanding they have to defend it. So I was all for some 50/50s. Coryell, Walsh whoever.  I do favor the Coryell approach personally but also very much value versatility, it doesn’t have to be strict. Just make the defense defend the whole field, however you do it. It has to include downfield throws.

      Sold, or in the process of being sold. Could be either way. Consider this for a second... Last season, our defensive coordinator steered what many have called the worst defense in NFL history.  Canales would absolutely have been justified in firing him, and no one would have blamed him if he had.  But what did he do? He gave Evero another chance to come back and prove he could be better. Does that tell us something about Canales? I think it does. Now apply that to Bryce 😕
