lordandrei@yahoo: Unsolicited broadcast messages are not appreciated from strangers. You have 2 minutes to argue your case for not being permanently blocked.
YahooUser: OK
YahooUser: WHAT I DO NOW?
YahooUser: SEND THEM?
lordandrei@yahoo: Explain why you felt justified to broadcast spam about spam to a complete stranger.
YahooUser: HUH……..
YahooUser: I’M OK?
lordandrei@yahoo: Automated note: <Your account has been blocked from sending this user any further messages. Please try again when you are older.>

Now I realize that having a nice paste list of random comments like this really isn’t going to help in the long run. But sometimes it is cathartic to basically tell people to screw off πŸ˜‰
