Lovely Spam, It's Wonderful Spam!


My junk mail box (junkmail box? junk mailbox?) has been filled with all kinds of wonderful headlines lately, very creative and pop-culture believable. This is not your standard vulgarity or Rolex (authentic!) vendors. These make me think the job market is worse than I thought and my fellow college grads had to really take some poor positions to make ends meet. Below is a list of my favorite subject lines (I mean, they've really gotten creative in ways to get me to click on things, no? And btw, these are all copied and pasted, so the errors are accurate):

Paris Hilton: The Day I Found Out Gary Glitter Is My Dad

A building that melts
subhead: Lion attacks keepers, shot

Britney Spears Offers to Sell Next Child to Jennifer Aniston

Britney mind control claims: manager says K-Fed responsibl

Man survives on bugs while lost
Subhead: Scrabulous determines to fight Hasbro over copyright of Scrabble to the end

Oprah raises money for Obama fundraiser
Subhead: 6-year-old skips school to visit strip club

And my favorite:
Poker winner dies of heart attack
Subhead: China withdraws support for McCain after hearing of the meeting between the Republican and the Dalai Lama

And finally, to abuse a cliche, last but not least!
Paris Hilton Gives Birth To Twins...Aliens!
Pah!
