I randomly looked through the spam folder in my email today, and among the offers for penis and breast enlargement, as well as a "$1000 Victoria's Secret Wardrobe Makeover," (Which to be honest, I think I would look stunning in, with lingerie replacing all of my regular clothing) I noticed some weird offers.
Like a Walmart gift card. Why Walmart? Why me? I know I'm pasty white, semi-low income, and am prone to spout horrible generalizations. But how do the people Emailing me know this? Is it because I say horrible self-incriminating statements on my blog like this? Probably, but that doesn't mean that I have shopped or ever will shop at Walmart. Not saying that I've never shopped there, but only to support our local Hispanic population- they have mouths to feed too.
Of course I didn't take the offer. I mean really, why do I need a stupid gift card if they keep rolling back their prices? Shouldn't they be free by now?
But what about all the other offers in my inbox? What am I missing out on when I don't click on them? Some Indian king really could have just died and left me a huge inheritance. I could get a larger package or even a bigger rack (obviously not both, that would just look silly.)

Some of them are hilariously bad if you take the time to read them.
