Spammer's Porsche up for grabs

AOL may be home to legions of netspeaking plebes going 'Me Too!', but sometimes they do us all a service:

Evil Spammer: Generic Viagra!
Evil Spammer: Cheap Mortgages!
Evil Spammer: Hot Porn!
Evil Spammer: Phony Degrees!
Evil Spammer: Septic Tanks!
Evil Spammer: Nigerian Money!
AOL: *lawsuit*
AOL takes Evil Spammer's car and all his money
Evil Spammer: Woe!
AOL: Members: Win a Spammer's Porsche!
Spam-hating Internet Users: Muahahahaha!

Read AOL's pun-filled press release here.
More snarkiness can be found over on Slashdot.

"AOL may be home to legions of netspeaking plebes going 'Me Too!"

No, that's far too clever: you're thinking of ex-AOLers.

AOLers say: "M3 2!!!!"

Also I read "Nigerian Money" as "Nigerian Monkey" and was starting to feel left out of the spamming circle when I realised that no one was offering monkeys at all and that rereading the sentence might help. Or indeed, reading it the first time!

Actually, I'm think of early AOLers, from the days before they went downhill. Of course, in those days, we thought they couldn get any worse. How wrong we were...

Also, do they have monkeys in Nigeria? If so, I want a Nigerian monkey - there's definately a market the scammers are missing out on...

I wonder if a Nigerian monkey "can go anywhere"?

Ooh, I hope so!

*hums monkey tune*

The monkey was robbed!
