Now you too can enjoy my Inbox without the annoying spam. Every week I get some amazing e-mail. Some amazing because of the sheer cluelessness of the sender, some because of the time and energy that went into crafting them and some are just simply amazing.

Subject: Your movie review
I'm sorry Mr. Briggs, but I happen to fully understand and enjoy Yu-Gi-Oh episodes, collect the cards and as you put it, "paraphernalia". If you don't like the movie, don't put your personal opinion in it, please. Just give a review about the movie itself..for those of us out there who like it, you just made it that much more of an incentive to keep liking Yu-Gi-Oh and other anime like it.
I replied that a review is supposed to be an opinion. She replied (this time in orange text on a black background)...

Yeah, well, you didn't have to dump on it as much as you did. It wasn't that bad. I saw it, got all the rest of the 3 cards from my friends (didn't have to watch it 4 times in theaters) and even after seeing it, got the DVD. So, it wasn't a complete loss.
The movie wasn't a complete loss, but the same can't be said for you.

Subject: Ebay Foils Phishers by Removing Password Requirement
WHAT?!?!?? Ebay claimed a victory? What the heck are you guys thinking?????? Removing a password doesn't make a phisher's job worthless...it makes it SO MUCH EASIER now that there's no longer a password. They can just get in and do crap. As for the anonymous phisher, he is a moron because he is thinking like you guys!
Yes, we're the morons.
