Everyday Life by NHØ Bananapants
October 7th, 2008 11:08 AM
Nothing like illness to get you off your normal routine and doing who knows what.
While I hope this is not everyday life, I did end up spending a few days now not going to school or work (which is also school and work, working at a school and all).
In my attempts to fix up the website for AnonyCon, a gaming convention I'm involved with coming up soon, I started plodding through email and html files. Of course I found out that I'm almost at disk quota, due to a huge number of emails building up on the server. Emails to support for the mail server information so I can download them go unanswered.
How many emails are on the server? After spending a few hours deleting (what else am I going to do, I'm sick) I've still got 140,643 emails in the inbox, of which I'm guessing at least 140,639 are spam. I could be wrong.
What highlights have I come across? There are some gems.
New vocabulary words!
Metallurgical deals...
Remarkably up-beat and grammatical 'messages'
Other entreaties with no spacing or paragraphs to speak of
(See RTF copied below)
and unsolicited Opt-in deals!
just gets better and better, eh?

New favorite subject line: exotic salad
porn spam, health spam, or both?
It's down to 136,456.
At this point, this task has consumed the better part of my productivity today, being home sick.
