Pushing Through The Writer’s Block

I was figuratively beating my head against the keyboard tonight trying to figure out what would be the best topic to write about. I know already within the first week I’ve failed with my “post a blog post everyday”. I could go into the various reasons, some of which are pretty personal, but rather I’ll share the excitement that Mack’s sister Emily was visiting and we all played mighty adventurers while she was in town.

Tonight was particularly hard though to think of a topic while pissed off. I was suppose to meet up with a friend tonight who I haven’t seen in a few years. Without going into great detail I’ll simply state I got flaked out on again after waiting around for almost an hour.

I get it. Stuff happens. I’m a very punctual person by nature so these things will get under my skin.

So after getting home and eating dinner I brought back from the Asian market (much to Mack’s pleasure for his own take-out dinner surprise treat) I stared at the keyboard perplexed as to what to write. Should I try to force humor when I’m irritated? Explore the unknown? Or better yet…

Share random images on my desktop!

I have a habit of dragging images I find amusing onto my desktop thus I don’t know all the sources of these fine images. If you know leave a comment and I will rectify the situation!

First off…

This cat kills me dead. The expression on his face says “I will kill you while you sleep and make your skin into a nice overcoat.”

For all the nerdy animal people in your life you know (not that I’m pointing fingers Emily)!

SLAYS me. If you actually click on the cat spinning the record it’s an animated gif and your life will never be the same again.

This one was actually one of my volley’s for the layer tennis my former coworker Micah and I do whenever we get around to it. I think he still fails to see by amusement with this particularly fine image I made.

And finally:

A Pure Love for Spam Emails

I know I’m weird. I can also admit that I have a pure love for the ridiculous nature of spam emails. Just something about them brings a smile to my face and a small chuckle of “Oh you!” each time I receive one. Back when I was working in Florida my company email account would be flooded with about five-hundred spam email comments overnight. Usually the other marketing girls and I would get frustrated with this development but quickly discovered that oftentimes they have the most ridiculous subject lines full of empty promises and false pretenses.

Remember, I like celebrity gossip so I’m all about the false nature of people.

Now, let’s start with some of the classic email titles:

“Your email address was picked for 789,000GBP”

Really!? All my wildest dreams have now come true! All you need is my banking routing number, right?

“Make it Jumbo. Try it out. paint.”

What? I admit I’m intrigued since it makes NO SENSE.

“Uld have betrayed her many, many times. It was inexplicable. Now that Tum”

Now this one looks promising! When I opened it I was not disappointed:

“Rry Cissie Dildine.” “Shu! Then whut fur dey go roun’ peepin’ at each other lak a couple o’ niggers roun’ a haystack?” The old lawyer was annoyed. “Peepingwhere?” “Why, right in front o’ dis house, dat’s wha; ever’ day when dat hussy passes up to de Arkwrights’, wha she wucks. She pokes along an’ walls her eyes roun’ at dis house lak a calf wid de splivins.” “That going on now?” “Ever’”

What about this one? The title is “Re: Important Notice!” Since it has “Re:” that means I totally emailed them first, right?

“Hope all is well with you? With due respect to your person and with much sincerity of purpose I make this contact with you as I believe that you can be of great assistance to me, I am the head of operation Falcon Private Bank; I’m writing you regarding a pressing issue in my bank, that will be of interest/benefit to you. It involved huge sum of money that was linked with you.”

The Engrish alone makes it worth the read.

“My name is Mr. Jerry Ntai,I am the Head of Operations in Mevas Bank, Hong Kong. I have a business proposal in the tune of $22,700,000.00 to be transferred to an offshore account with your assistance if willing.After the successful transfer, we shall share inratio of 30% for you and 70% for me.”

Wow! This seems totally legit! Look at all this money I could be making!

If you’re not gullible and fall easily to 4-1-9 frauds I highly suggest just reading the titles of these emails. I guarantee the ridiculousness will amuse you to no end.
