Notification of your failure in bed

I didn't think you could have your computer email you when you have erectile disfunction.

That's a peripheral I don't think they're going to sell many of.

Well, there is a device called the F-U F-Me, but I'm not sure Tom wants me linking to it in his journal. :)

F-U F-Me

"... say it together, naturally."

*couldn't resist*

i love your icon...

[armb.livejournal.com]

Well, there is a spoof web page for a fictional device called the F-U F-Me.

That is creepy yet funny at the same time. Ah the joys of Spam.

The scary one is when a Harry Potter fan had an email address featuring Dumbledore's name in it, and they kept getting those kinds of mails, or the ads for male enhancement.

Oy. Not something I want to think of.

I would think you would have paid attention to the first one, before posting #2! :)

[bardicwench.livejournal.com]

Ack! Stop reading my mind!

(but at least I read the comments before posting almost the identical statement that you did)

[kender42.livejournal.com]

Muahahaha! Fear my mind-readingness! :)

In case you aren't aware of it:

Spamusement (http://spamusement.com/). "Poorly-drawn cartoons inspired by actual spam subject lines!"

Some of them are brilliant. Others, just plain silly.

Oh gawd.... thank you for reminding me about that one. I'm glad I'm in the server room alone, or people would probably be thinking I'm about to die, been laughing so hysterically. ;)

Of course, it didn't say what KIND of failure -- it might have been failure to get any sleep whatsoever. (*grins*) Actually, it sounds almost like a bothched cookie fortune. Maybe that's why it's being ignored.
