LOL...you know what? I hadn't seen the original attachment by Mole cos of posting-confusion, so i saw this one first and thought this was the "original" spam hehe...shows how much we're used to by now from spam. nice work thought Satis. I think we should sue spam...i mean, it's basically saying that you date-rape girls by hypnotizing them. If i can sue cig companies, i should be able to sue spam, i'd prove two big favors at once, one to society (i'd be a hero!) and one to my wallet.

yea, I think (b) is usually more accurate. Indeed, spam has alot of misspellings (unfortuanetly, alot may be on purpose to avoid spam filters), but the grammatical construction of sentences is typically very American (or at least native-English speaker). So I think it's (b) for the most part. Most non-english speakers user peculiar turns of speech which make it obvious that they're not Americans/native English speakers.

Lol, Spam sucks. End of story. Nice work Satis. I haven't read my Email today *goes wondering of to the junk folder* This is starting to turn out like a "group" version of homestarrunner.com, with the emails and all... brb.

OMG. What the crap is this:

The horrible grammatical problems are always my first clue that it's a phishing attempt. You'd think these guys would hire Ox to write some semi-coherent crap.

Ox would help any kind of scammer as long as he gets a cut.

Punctuation is often bogus too. Man i feel sorry for the people who've been scammed by these emails, i really do. Newer generations should automatically be really good at detecting this kind of stuff.

Strangely the situation is kinda same here. New generations just don't get many things that were self-evident in my time.

Before I came to Bulgaria to study, I worked with kids for years. It was about school choir and solo singers. Every year there were less and less talents. Not sure how it is today, but I heard teachers complain it is much much worse than it was. I can't imagine it.

Vocabulary of young people sucks here too. They are FULL of slang words that only they can understand and so on, but are missing words like "triangle", "idea", "pen"... and if you serve them a sentence that is longer than 10-15 words, prepare to have to simplify it if you want to be understood. Allusions, metaphors, and that stuff?? Don't even try.

I even experienced a girl (about '94 generation) who tried to LEARN the table of adding. Yes, the table of adding. She was asking me and different people "How much is 1+10", "How much is 1+12" etc. After she get an answer she would write it down on a paper. The most irritating thing about it is that every day she had a new paper and asked people the same questions. And besides that she was a normal person with even more logical thinking than most of people (people who "get" adding). I mean... no way of settling her in some institution that has to deal with retards. No way to make her get damn adding. Dead position in chess.

I just don't get what's wrong with all those generations. Global brainwash?
