Annoying Junk Emails
My inbox at the moment is so annoying at the moment because it is so full of junk mail that somehow made it past the filters (I guess Outlook really wants me to check out those latest deals and how to increase the size of my "manhood"). Seriously though, those emails are so annoying sometimes that I just want to spam them with endless bloody emails and see how they like it. I have never once shown any interest in any of the topics that they keep sending to me. The worst part is that when there is an important email I need to activate something that is when the filters kick in and send it to the junk folder. Outlook, get your damn act together! All I am saying is be prepared for a rant.
The emails themselves are just stupid and obviously fake. Forgive me for not jumping with joy when I find out that I have won a billion pounds in a lottery in the UK that I never even entered, let alone heard of. Who offers a billion pound reward anyway? If the lottery gave away that much money they would go broke, what do you take me for, an idiot? Do not answer that question. Then you get those 'official' emails from the supermarkets. I seriously received one that said the sender was IGA and yet the topic was Woolworths Vouchers. The worst part is that people must fall for it because they keep sending them out. If you are going to run a scam like that at least check that it makes sense. Now, onto those stupid emails about improving my "intimate life". Before I begin, I would like to clear up any doubt that males do not have the same genitals as our female counterparts. I know that most of us learn that pretty early on but apparently some scams are not as knowledgeable about these organs. I have seriously seen so many emails clearly tailored to men yet referencing enlargement of "our" (it specifically used this pronoun) breasts. Like, seriously, come on. If it is not bad enough that you bombard me with stupid emails, it is even worse that you do not even get your anatomy correct! Then there are the emails that are clearly meant to be coded such that the email will read your address and use the first part as your name. As my email starts with "manl97" I get several interesting emails regarding using manl97 as if it is my name. I must have forgotten to change it to Luke before I came out of the Womb. Woops, my mistake. Then I get those emails trying to set me up with "Local Sluts" or to get me on to the adult version of Facebook (they are so creative, they replaced Face with the F word). I mean, I know some people see me as a player but I am only sixteen and the use of such sites is, technically, illegal. So next time you stupid scammers want to send me a stupid email, check to make sure it makes bloody sense before you fill up my inbox. Thank you.

Why am I watching this?
Foreword: I am sorry about the lack of post yesterday (2/7/2013) as this post was supposed to be released at around 6pm last night but for some reason Blogger decided that it would rather not publish this post and it went unpublished. As a result, today there will be 2 posts including this one which was meant to go live last night. Be sure to check back again tonight (3/7/2013) at around 6pm (AEST) tonight for the 100th post! Again I am sorry about what happened and sincerely hope that it does not happen again.
Have you ever just sat in front of the television and just flicked through the channels because there was nothing else to do. Imagine one of those days when it is raining, you are home alone, have nothing to do and are incredibly bored. What do you do? Probably watch some television. But wait, there does not seem to be anything on that interests you. However, like most people (myself included) you just continue flicking through the channels wishing an unscheduled show to air. However, in the end you find yourself an hour later watching some show you have no interest in. Sometimes you really have to ask yourself "Why am I watching this?" Most of the time I do not have an answer. It really is a bit sad.
Sometimes we even experience this during prime-time television (around 6pm to 9pm). Especially during the period of the year where the networks do not air any of the good shows as the rating season is low. This, for me, is the worst time for television as there is nothing that interesting on and you just find yourself flicking through the channels and watching bits and pieces of all these boring shows. I mean, do you know how many times I have watched Antiques Roadshow during this period? Let's just say that there is a lot of junk on that show and I am getting really good at guessing how much an item is worth. I know how sad that sounds but that is the reality nearly all of us face. Have you ever had this experience? Chances are you have. Even now, as I write this I find myself thinking of all the good shows that are on tonight I want to watch (like Under the Dome) and then all the crap ones I will probably sit through while waiting for these shows (like The Mole which I do not think will be as good as the original series). That is all for today but be sure to check back tomorrow for the 100th post, hooray!
If you can not answer the question "Why am I watching this?" then stop watching it, see you tomorrow!
