02/23/2005: "Stop sending me mail"

Song of the Day: Robbie Williams - Radio

As annoying as it is when companies online plant cookies in your computer so they can give you ads that are geared towards your interests, I wish they utilized a similar technique when it comes to postal mail spam. Take a look at what was in my mailbox today:

Addressed to "Smart Driver" - "Switch to Nationwide and save up to $242 on your car insurance!"

I've driven twice in the last six months. I don't even own a car. I'm a smart driver, sure, but that's because I take the bus every day.

Addressed to me, strangely enough - "The Total Pre-College Experience: Recommended by Kaplan SAT Prep for Success in College - 3-6 1/2 Week Programs from $3595."

Sorry, I already graduated from college. With honors. And without paying $3,595 for some stupid "prepare for success" program. Trust me on this one: if you're motivated enough to be willing to shell out that much money, you're going to do well regardless. Especially with all the dumbasses in college these days (check out this college professor's blog for some unbelievable stories about pathetic students).
