Every commercial on daytime TV seems to be one kind of scam or another these days. Fuck daytime TV. The wife and I had a pleasant moment last night, her crocheting and me quilting, with the TV off listening to her podcasts. It was more than pleasant and I hope it becomes a thing. I'm in the shit or get off the pot stage with the quilt, so I've been sitting away. I might make a thread about it today. In other news, the weird talking spammers are back for round two. They must be working from a script or something, cause here's a comment from yesterday . . . And here's one from this morning . . . Charming. Edit: Fuck! I reinstalled Linux recently and of course I backed up my data like I always do. Well, I hadn't put the data back on my PC until today, as I was getting ready to make a post about my quilt progress. Well, guess fuxking what. Every last resume file I have is corrupt. Both flash drives. Even the ones from three years ago. Thank God I have a hard copy of my latest one and a version I can pull off from an old GMail. Otherwise that'd be a shit ton of work and effort gone. . . . I need to back up my wedding photos.
That stuff makes me sad. We still have work to do making this more difficult for the spammers. I really hope that a real person isn't sitting somewhere doing this by hand. The circle has been nuked. Interesting how they all incubated for 22 days before posting.
Thanks for nuking them. I hope you didn't think I was calling you out on them or anything. More often than not I just filter them and go about my day. This latest batch was just too interesting though, in the way they talked. They were actually kind of entertaining for that reason. When I was writing this post, I actually rewrote what I was going to say about them, for fear there is a person on the other end of the line. If that's what they're doing to try and get by, it's not right for me to insult them. Now if they were scammers or such, I'd fire off with out giving them a second thought.
