BBspot Mailbag

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.


BBelievers

Plenty of BBelievers to start off the New Year. The first isn't quite sure what to make of our PHP as a drug story...

Subject: Brian, you wrote that...is this real??

I am a sw professor, I teach PHP so I laughed a lot when I read your note, but is it true?
How was the incidente. It seems a joke!

At least he's not completely convinced.

And now for the people that fell for our Wiimote use in the new Leisure Suit Larry game...

So much for the Wii being a kid's console, eh? Also, all the "playing with my Wii" pun/jokes are coming true!

And then on Digg...

Thank you Nintendo for keeping the vibrating feature on your new controllers!

And elsewhere...

Leisure Suit Larry ain't coming to the Wii, as that's not a valid source for video game information.

What does he mean BBspot isn't a valid source for video game information? Hasn't he heard about ActiveDeath?

man, wouldn't it be embarrasing to be caught playing it?

Or caught BBelieving it?

Nerds rejoice! You can now take false security in a videogame that you are good at sex.

It's not the size of the hard drive...

One thing is certain; this is just the beginning to new creative uses for the Wii and its controllers.

I never thought this story would get a BBeliever...

Subject: Outsourcing Military Fitness Program

Sir,
I read this article on outsourcing the fitness program to civilians. What I understood was that civilians are taking the tests for officers so that the military can concentrate on the mission. Is this fact? What's next? Outsourcing our annual weapons qualification?

What's next outsourcing their ability to detect satire?

A couple of bright bulbs wanted to make sure that the teen girl who had been tricking bands over MySpace knew that she had been found out. These via the inbox over at the MySpace profile...

you have been found out the truth is out that your just a honrey little girl who has never been laid

And...

Hope you read this one lil missy..

"Ashley Morgan, 13, has used her 'sonymusicexec' MySpace profile to lure several bands to her Los Angeles home. Ashley was grounded so she couldn't talk to us on the phone for this report."

Haha..ratted out now arnt you.

You got me!
