Cleaning up spam


PragerU has been flooding my in-box with trash lately.

No, I don’t give a good fucking goddamn about Dennis Prager’s personal life, I’ve never wondered what makes Dennis who he is (he’s yet another god-soaked authoritarian with a mission to ruin America), and it’s arroggant to presume anyone wants to know what makes him tick. We don’t, and shouldn’t, care.

Time to update the filters.

    Same with Hillsdale “College.” I get snail mail spam at least once a month from that disgusting, racist rat’s nest (no offense meant to rats).

    I took the PragerU teacher qualification test. I passed!

    Were you getting PragerU spam before then, or was that the watershed moment?

    @Akira MacKenzie:
    You took the words right out of my mouth, could not help that thought as sonn as I read the OP…

    @3. submoron : “StevoR @ 2. An ass in both British and American senses of that spelling?”

    In the metaphorical backside one. One of the Kardashians was famous for showing her big backside, Prager is a metaphorical backside – which is rather unfair to backsides really!

    [to clarify: I think StevoR means ‘ass’ in both the British sense (a foolish person) and the American sense (a buttocks) rather than as a donkey or mule]

    Dear PZ, we suggest to our computer clients that they have 2 free E-mail accounts. One for personal communications and one that might attract spam. Also, we recommend against gmail since many tech experts (including our own) found that g00gle censors and blocks many legitimate E-mails.

    ” anyone wants to know what makes him tick. We don’t, and shouldn’t, care.”

    someone studies pathology of societal norms, vapidity, political exploitation, etc. Certainly, from an academic perspective knowing what makes him tick (so we can combat whatever that is) is a good thing, but I refuse to volunteer for that gig, I have a weak stomach
