- Porn - I'm not sure why this happens. Neither of us watches porn or visits porn sites. Really. I've seen it before, don't get me wrong, but I'm not a viewer. I have some personal objections to it and also find it quite boring. It's something like watching Gilligan's Island; it's essentially the same episode each time. I can imagine Dante today working porn into one of his circles of hell.
- Gambling - Again, I'm not sure why this one happens either as neither of us gambles. I've been to some big casinos and gambling cities, but the most I have done is risked $10 worth of quarters on the slot machines. And that was after I turned 35 and had a real career.
- Scams - These seem to have died down a bit, but I still get them occasionally. Someone somewhere promises to share huge piles of money with me if I will just help them do something or other. If I am just greedy enough, I can get suckered.
- Erectile dysfunction - This is a popular one. I believe that one started just after Viagra hit the market. Some of these have great subject lines. 'Hard wood' always makes me laugh.
- Canadian pharmacies - Ironically I still get these even though I now live in Canada. Apparently Canadian pharmacies have all kinds of drugs to sell super cheap.
But recently I started getting a new type of spam, and it made me worry. Now, I seem to be getting all these messages about 20/20 vision and ditching my glasses forever. To be honest, I find it kind of offensive. Is my spam folder telling me that I am somehow to old for all those vices I don't indulge in?
Since, I'm not buying Viagra, does that mean I'm too old to get it up while not watching porn?
Am I so worried about my fixed income retirement that I wouldn't blow it all on a crazy gambling site?
Do I not want to buy prescription grade pharmaceuticals to abuse because I just want to go to bed early?
Do they think I'm so old and blind that I can't read the offers of easy riches from Nigeria?
What is this world coming to?
