Today, I cornered my 16yo and my 5yo to get some photos to send out with xmas cards. The 16yo tolerated it fairly well, the 5yo... well...  |

Nice photo, RH, but I have to register a pet peeve. I hate when friends send me a Christmas card with a photo of their kids. I don't give a shit about their kids. I *hate* kids.
I want to see what my *friends* look like nowadays. Particularly, how decrepit they have become in their old age. It makes me feel better about my own level of deterioration. Photos of random rug-rats I've never even met do nothing for my holiday mood!
Sorry, just had to vent!

Photos of random rug-rats I've never even met do nothing for my holiday mood! Sorry, just had to vent! I agree with you Jake. For years my old roommate sent out a Christmas card that was just a picture of his two girls. Nothing about him or his wife or his girls were written in. After about 12 years of that I stopped sending him cards and it took him until his youngest turned 18 for him to return the favor. |

Simon Simon, most spammers dont have the level of integrity to even offer that deal.. make sure he hits the "Unsubscribe" button before you do anything however I will indeed Gordon, because of course the moment he hits the unsubscribe button it confirms to me that someone is actually receiving the spam. At that point I will increase the volume of *exclusive* offers that hit his inbox, and sell his details as a fully qualified lead to third party spammers and various Nigerian businessmen with vast wealth that they need to get out of their country.

Joe LOL!! You beat me to the punch, Joe. I was thinking EXACTLY that when I was scrolling down the posts. There are three of us from High School that keep in touch via email. We don't email much, but when you get one, you know it's worth reading. Well, another high school "friend" got all our email addresses and about every other day, sends out some piece of shit email about this or that that he's done as if we could GIVE A FUCK! He recently sent out a piece about how his roommate in college fell out of his bed one night. Huh?? WTF?? Who gives a shit??  |
