Let's get this plan quite clear in my mind.

What you're supposedly saying is:
You'd give me completely fake qualifications, the holders of which fraudulently use to seamlessly obtain valued, well-paid positions, suspiciously false awards and it'd earn considerable income?

I'll order one for a brain surgeon.

There's a Mayo Clinic consultant neurosurgeon position vacant and I'd like to obtain it, even in the absence of a basic medical degree or the knowledge of functional and structural central nervous system anatomy, the diseases and syndromes, pills, doses, radical Swiss head operations, surgical procedures, instruments, or paraphernalia.

"Dr" Larry.

Dear... er... whatever,

Hey! We in Holland would like to ask you to... you to... er... to participate in a... well... study by the... er... University of Amsterdam. The... er... only subject of our study is the toxic effect of... of... um... blow... weed... reefer... I... I mean, cannabis, on clog-wearing tulipheads that sit around, quite utterly stoned out of their, er... poor tiny little brains, in 24-hour 'brown' canal cafes, continually smoking... um ... wait a moment, I'm quite tired... oh yeah, pot... eating sweet hash cakes (yummy) and posting off spam such as this. Like, er... I'm out of it, too! Totally heavy!

3rd - Meyran Kraus with:
Question: Where do I get this New credit File from?
Answer: That's a secret and you will find out once you purchase my kit. But what I can tell you is that my secret method is 100% legal, 100% ethical, and best of all 100% GUARANTEED!

Question: How many people have have used your method and have had success?
Answer: I have sent out over 3600 orders so far and have not had anyone return this information because they were unable to open a new credit file using my secret method.

Question: Are there any other fees involved after I purchase your kit?
Answer: Your out of pocket expense will be around $20.00 more to get your new credit file which is a processing charge and that is it. And this is a one time fee.

Question: How long does it take for me to receive my information?
Answer: You will receive your information by U.S. Mail within 7 business days after you receive your order. We strive to mail out all orders within 3 days, but sometimes, we get backlogged with orders. We guarantee that you'll receive your order within 7 business days though!

=

Question: Why the fuck do these idiots try to convince me to buy their turds when I obviously won't?
Answer: Curiously enough, they wouldn't care if you will never send them money. They have enough resources to take care of their future; Too bad - now they are purely concerned with the mutilation of the web.

Question: Should I ignore them?
Answer: Why, you shouldn't! In fact, anagrams of these pathetic letters are barrels of fun!

Question: Is it true the male spammers have microscopic genitals?
Answer: It is, my dear, you're very clever! Their sorry woodies are of wee measurements - some are even without any signs of sexual organs! To review a recent study, a web-idiot's dick length will be roughly 0.0001207% of the average piece.

Question: I've decided to slay one. Could you guide me, please?
Answer: Sure! First, try and find their hideout, usually a basement or a video arcade. Once captivated, behead them with a sword. For anyone residing abroad I think a hitman is in order. I know of at least two in Australia, so please ring me at 1-700-6003-0301.

Hello, dear University,

Despite its academic nature, this post is treated as SPAM by a lot in this wide community where we must, by definition, reply to and anagram every non-topical post.

Please follow the word of our FAQ for clear elaboration on this.

If you take interest in such activities you might want to forward this letter to your friends and fuel the hot letter-mixing clique we are.

Hell, if you feel like it&have depth, you could have a go yourself, or just write more punk SPAM (& evoke workout stuff for us...).

By the way, you can help in this month's contest and vote. Will only take 2-4 minutes of your time, at www.anagrammy.com.

Top undue fun here, with the alt.anagrams community

(no academy yet, but belief & wishes...)

James H. Young with:
Hi!

I am from Sweden and I am travelling your area having good time - I saw your profile on friendfinder.com before I left Sweden and I send you a couple of E-Mails through friendfinder before I am come here and wonder if you received them?

I am arrived in our area now - but no reply? I am hoping I have not broken my account by changing my venu or because my email address is Swedish? I am looking for fun while I am in our area - and want somebody to show me round (especially the night life!!)

If you are fixed up or want to see my picture please let me know!

Elga

Dear Elga,

You say you saw my "profile" in a web page I have never visited? Fine. I am sure nice, cute Swedish blondes are likely coming off to one of the more miniscule towns in Denmark to be "shown around" by me if I am a Recorder-fondling music student who does five hours of anagramming in his free time. I imagine we both know you aren't real. I find the idea untrue and idiotic. I figure you are probably a middle-aged pedophile from Iowa, a hairy French porn-peddler homo or (worse yet) a fun Unix programmer from Cleveland. Why can't you leave me alone, man?

 


THE LONG CATEGORY

eq.1st - David Bourke with:
