Any German that would spam you is a real Deutsche bag.

I think the point was that it was getting through because it was German.

But in answer to your question, yes anything German is wurst. Have you ever had German measles compared to the regular kind?

We should win an award for the first CP Lounge thread to ever mention German pubic lice.

It's our Mornington Crescent.

It's part of Merkel's new anti-trust regulations, allowing German spammers to have access to the world. Watch out for anti-Trump subliminal messages!

Well, it will be only fair, Donald Drumpf (renamed for marketing purposes to Trump) traces back to Kallstadt, Bayern, just like the ketchup producer Heinz, who wasn't quite as ashamed of his name.

This German village wants to be known for wine. Instead, it’s Trump — and ‘Drumpf.’ - The Washington Post[^]

That's the joy of Google translate: you can pretend the German translation of "Specially Processed American Meat" is accurate.

meh. Anyone who googles to take part in a discussion should be just as ignored as if he stopped to google during a face-to-face discussion.

I have an outlook.com account that's essentially a spam dump for messages from microsoft (I sometimes use it to log in to my laptop, but usually use a local ID).

I dread to think how many spam messages it's received. I'll log in and indiscriminately delete everything, just to make sure they don't close it.
