Oh wow 500 emails.
Sorry about the long delay.
Today's word of the day is
stultify. It means to render useless or ineffectual; to cripple. Strangely appropriate for my inbox right now.
Just a couple of article headlines and email subects to give you a fairly accurate cross-section of my inbox:
o 8 principles for seeking God's will in college (Part 1) - It looks like it's a bunch of quotes from the bible and interpretations by some guy. I'll admit I just skimmed it.
o Virtualization Poses Challenges for IT Pros - Short 4 line article summary.
o PS3 announcements fail to halt Sony stock slide - Short 4 line article summary.
o Honoring Your Husband... - Article about making your husband feel loved.
o Your Intimate Relationship With Money - Thinking positively about money will magically make you rich. Also buy our book that tells you how to make MILLIONS!~ selling ebooks.
o Daily Home & Garden Horoscopes - My horoscope tells me today is a good day to finish my knitting project.
o You wanna be serving something, you gotta be serving something… - Advertising dinner plates from The BUST Boobtique.
o 2009 NDEAM Poster Available - The government is giving away FREE 2009 NDEAM posters, compliments of the US tax payers. To be fair, the only people asking for these are probably workplaces and various government institutions.
o WHAT'S REALLY THE SAFEST WEB BROWSER? - Communist propaganda from Linux Today. MICROSOFT FOREVER! (please ignore the fact that I'm currently running linux and am posting this from firefox)
o Yes She Can! 59% Of HuffPost Readers Say Michelle Obama "Absolutely" Has The Right To Wear Shorts - 41% of Huffington Post readers are fascists!
o Can vitamin D ease schizophrenia? - Apparently it can!
I tried searching for love in my inbox and got a total of 9 emails, all of which were just news articles from some health website. A search for "dating" brought up emails about book clubs, tarot cards and more health articles. There are probably some dating site / adult sites in there somewhere, but it's buried so deeply under government newsletters, computer/engineering newsletters, horoscopes and advertisements for plates/chocolates/plants that I can't find them. I must apologize to everyone who tried to sign me up for gay black jewish singles, I didn't find your email.
Update: I just got the gay research and discovery channel emails.
I get a new email every 1-10 minutes.
I would give you guys an RSS feed of my inbox so you could take a look at it and see just how often I get a new email (you can see the emails flowing in real-time at times), but my password appears in plain text and I know some jerk is going to log in and break everything.
