Spam is not funny

I have an issue that's bothering me.  I've been seeing something happening in the journals I read which I think reflects an emerging trend in the wider blogosphere.  People are posting about the funny spams that they've gotten, and implicitly or explicitly encouraging other people to do the same.  It's understandable, in a way, because if you take some of these spam messages by themselves, out of the context of the crisis the Internet is going through, they are often quite humorous.  And everyone gets spam, so it's a topic everyone can relate to, and everyone can talk about.

( And therein lies the problem )
