Are You Spamming Me?

SPAM is just part of being on the Interwebz these days. Everywhere we go, some site wants to sell us something, from pharmaceuticals to credit reports. Of course, we also get SPAM in email, often times from a deposed prince who needs help getting his money out of the country. Sounds innocent enough right? And that’s why people try to help the brother out and end up being pwned.

Although we have the option of leaving our computers at home while we enjoy time out with friends or family, have you ever wondered what things would be like if SPAM followed you into real life? This video portrays a rather disturbing possibility…

Though computers aren’t to the point where they can program a human brain, people are susceptible to the power of suggestion. Marketing and advertising play a huge role in this, but the prospect of making money online too has caused some people to, although not to this extent, sound rather SPAMMY in their conversations.

Has anyone ever SPAMMED you in person? Have you done it to someone and not even realized you did it?

Been spammed at the mall for perfume, does that count?

I think we expect that when we go there. But it’s the stuff you don’t expect like getting a friendly invitation to a BBQ only to find out it’s a big AMWAY party. Or when you talk to someone and the conversation keeps trying to shoehorn in a pitch for some “system” they make money off of. Just examples.

Your messages were a lot more fun to read when you were eating stuff that a Cajun would stop and think about! When’s the last time you relaxed and took your new scooter out for some air? Lighten up Bro! Gabe

I thought the video would have taken care of the light end of the topic. I thought it was quite funny.
