Ah, the things you receive when you're connected to ICQ for a while. (I run EveryBuddy on my Linux box at work...)

Or maybe just find other people in Waltham to have wild uninhibited sex with? Get a free email address and homepage at http://personals.getlaid.net Because you don't want to make friends, you want to Get Laid.. for free!

Yeah, I think that having an address in the "getlaid.net" domain just oozes class... or maybe it just oozes...

Almost as bad as the spam that read, "MLM+SEX+INTERNET= CAN YOU BEAT THAT?"

My response was, "Go have sex with each of the people on the list below..."

"Spam a newsgroup or three with a duplicate of this message, but erase
the top name and put yours on the bottom..."

"Ten thousand people will come to you for sex!"

Occasionally I wonder what the spam was really about - the original never reached my server.

At least it's not:

"ICQ is deleting all inactive accounts! Forward this to everyone on your list or lose your ICQ number forever! And be raped by a rabid, syphillic donkey!"

First of all, ICQ never deletes a damn thing. My number from 1997 still exists.
Second, donkeys don't like me.

I'm always amused by the people who fall for this scam. The same guy sent me the same message 3 times cause he thought it was real cause it had a link to a url that had icq in it somewhere.

Oh, you think that's bad Chris, I've got this one girl on my list who believes not only those, but in the chain letters too.
Every time I get one, I e-mail her the anti-chain letter chain letter, but she has yet to get the point.
