Spam Box Treasures: Part 4

Published on by morganas book box7 Comments

Many moons have passed since I last presented my out of this world spam box treasures with you all.

I must say, though… It´s been rather quite in the spam folder. Months ago I was gifted with the most thoughtful spams and then they suddenly died down. I´m not sure if these spammers went on a creative break or took a long vacation because now, they´re back and they´re on a mission.

Alas- My latest spam treasures from the Spam Treasure Box.

 

  1. Charming Little Booger. Thank you SO MUCH, 188bet, for thinking I could be an author. My book might only have 5 pages but if you have faith in me, then I certainly will find a way to become a 5 page bestseller.

2. ???

What list are we talking about here? A financial list? Political list? Blogger list? Shopping list?

3. Dr. Online Casino

Uugh, I know. I thought about that this morning after I inhaled my Nutella toast and drank my blueberry muffin flavored tea.

4. Observant much?

Then I recommend you look at my blog in Chrome.

5. Be specific, man!

More of what? More reviews of the book? More of the author? Perhaps more of my reviews? You´re confusing me.

6.Whaaaaaaat?

I don´t have a son. Get your facts straight before spamming the flippin foo foo out of me, live blackjack!

7. Uugh

Look, the last time I played poker was when I was 21 and that night ended with me falling asleep in my friend´s garden. When I woke up I was told that I was looking for my house keys in the backyard and never returned. Do you see why poker might not be a popular game?

Okay, lovelies… That was it for now.

Thank you so much for taking your time to see what treasures I have in my apocalyptic spam box!

Until next time.

Those words of thanks from an author to someone special…. They´re often found on the dedication page.

You know, the page most people love to skip because they want to immediately get started with the story? Yeah. That page.

Book dedications might not be of major importance to a story, but some dedications are totally worth taking a look at.

Alas!

Here are 10 Funny Book Dedications

 

  1. Oh?

It´s worth looking at book dedications. You just never know what you´re going to read.

Book Review: The Internet Is A Playground – David Thorne

Published on by morganas book boxLeave a comment

Synopsis

The complete collection of articles and emails from 27bslash6 such as Overdue Account, Party in Apartment 3 and Strata Agreement plus articles too litigious to be on the website.

 

My Thoughts

There are only 4 things in life that have the ability to make me cry from laughing so hard ( 4 things I can think of ).

  • The movie – Men In Tights ( Mel Brooks is just ❤ )

  • My 38-year-old husband trying to impress 12-year-old boys with his non existent skateboarding skills.

  • The Breathalyzer Fail video ( this particular one )

 

  • David Thorne´s emails.

 

 

Now, I´m all for laughing and having a great time. You could actually be my best friend for life if you have a sense of humor ( or if your humor matches mine ). I also love brilliant minds. People who can think quick and give answers that´ll literally knock the wind from your sails. There´s nothing like a good comeback that sits / stings / burns others.

Have you heard of David Thorne?

If you haven´t then I highly recommend you read some of his emails  here or buy his book, `The Internet Is A Playground`.  the internet is a playground

I swear on all that pink and fluffy… this guy is a genius. A genius jerk who has the ability to make me laugh uncontrollably.

`The Internet Is A Playground` is only one of many books that have a collection of his wild and bizzare email exchanges with victims  people.

Whether it´s an email exchange with his neighbor, Justin, or an email exchange with Shannon about her missing cat, Missy…. All emails had me in a laughing fit.

 

It´s obvious that David Thorne ( the true victim ) feels harassed and harasses the people who contact him. It´s extremely painful to read some of the poor soul´s replies as they struggle to keep up with David Thorne´s responses or give decent replies at all. But hey…. everyone get´s what they deserve… Either Karma kicks in or David Thorne shoots back.

I´d rather have David Thorne send me an email than have to deal with Karma.

My favorite email exchange would be from David and Justin, the neighbor with the blinding floodlight.

With his bedside lamp off, the shades drawn and the covers over his head… he read a book with sunglasses on! DO YOU SEE WHAT I MEAN? 

And then there´s this. This is what made me fall off my chair from laughing so damn hard.

I can´t even.

I´ve seen some people rant against David Thorne and feeling offended by the things he has published or feel pity for the “victims” when it´s clear that most of them are just idiots asking for it.

Of course, David Thorne crosses a few lines and pokes at the bee’s nest. He´s provocative. But it´s all in the name of humor. It´s about having fun when there´s no reason to have fun. Lightening the mood.

I love it and can only recommend his work.

Would I recommend this book? I would. Over and over and over again.

Would I re- read this book? ( see answer above )

The Cover – ( I don´t really care for rating this cover because it´s not significant.)

The Story – ( What story? The book is filled with email exchanges.)

The Characters – ( Each victim deserves a medal for surviving  David Thorne. And David Thorne deserves a medal for trying…  )

My emotional state after finishing this book – I´m in heaven.

5 stars
