it comes in pints?

Probably for the same reason I keep getting "penis enlargement" spam. I mean, if these spammers were hung like John Holmes, would they be making a living spamming?
I think not.

Julie,
Hahahaha. So true.

So Emily does not like African American spammers and Julie does not like men with big accessories (i know i've read her but it's my comment) I used to have a Jack Russell terrier named Scamp.
Baked beans chips and spam...

Who says a spammer is African American just because they're trying to pitch me Oprah shit? Where did either one of us say we didn't like anything or anybody other than spam?

And where does the terrier come into this?

Julie,
I think it has something to do with the baked beans, but I haven't quite sorted it out yet.

Probably for the same reason I keep getting "penis enlargement" spam.

So other people are getting that one, too? I thought my ex-wife had been gossiping about me!

I keep forwarding them to Ken, but I don't know if it helped...

She has been, Joel. That's where the viagra spam comes in.

"I used to have a Jack Russell terrier named Scamp.

I must know what this means. Is it a coded message? Could Ken be Scamp?

Dave,
Hahaha. Maybe Colin will return to enlighten us when he's sobered up.

Because Harpo is the Goddess of Love and wisdom who happily dispenses her advice to lesser humans. I know this because her magazine says so.

Apologies to all. No artificial stimulants were used in the formation of my comment. In a nutshell; unfunny comment of mine linked to word association (Kerouac Jack, Crowe Russell) leads to boyhood dog named Scamp return to origin of post with fake Monty Python menu item also from childhood.
I will not do it again.

[sigh] I was hoping he was just drunk...

I keep getting spam that either says something like

"(bizarre atypical name that I don't know anyone by) says"

or that have news headlines as their subject line. (A**a N****e has been big these past few days).

It's an annoyance, but if the spammers think I'm stupid enough to fall for either of those, then they're dumber than they think I am.

I wonder what the "threshold level of return is" - how many fools need they hook in to make it profitable? Because if there were some threshold number, maybe we could, ahem, PERSUADE people not to open/respond to spam? And maybe it would go away? (Or maybe my middle name's just Pollyanna?)

All my spam has been financial, including "YOU JUST WON A LOTTERY!!!!!" So boring. I wish I'd get some breast enhancement spam, just for a little variety.

Even *I* don't get breast-enhancement spam.

(then again, maybe the powers that be think that would be a bit of the old Bringing Coal To Newcastle...)

Ricki,
Isn't that funny? I never get breast enhancement spam either, but I get penis enlargement spam every day.

Oh - and Colin, it's no big deal. I wasn't really offended or anything. I just thought Scamp and baked beans was kind of random and puzzling, that's all.

I thought Duke was the one trying to sell off the family baked bean recipe...

Ricki - I was beginning to think I was the only one who got spam like that! It's the Gold Standard at work.

I had to laugh when I got bombarded with spam for antidepressants AFTER I didn't respond to their penis enlargement spam. How did they know??
