This is such bullshit

Are you familiar with SpamAssassin?  SpamAssassin ruins lives.  SpamAssassin attempts to catch all of your spam emails and DESTROY THEM before you even get to “LOL” at them.  They put out ads like this, which I have defaced with my Windows Paint skillage:

Don’t they care that there are over one-sextillion ways to spell Viagra?  I wonder how many ways there are to spell MURDERER?  Probably not as many!   I can’t say I’m surprised that the code for this awful program was released on April 20th, 2001 – what would have been Adolf Hitler’s 112th birthday.

Well, guess what, SpamAssassin?  Your shit isn’t working.  Here are the top two problems reported on your FAQ page:

  1. SpamAssassin is killing my server
  2. Spam is getting through

You know what? I’m just gonna say it.  The folks at SpamAssassin are a bunch of hurtful, humorless people who try to remove all of the joy from your life.

Thanks to Sam at Audience of Two for publicizing this tragedy.
