Spamming the Spammer

 Kitties!  It was mentioned in comments yesterday that it was too bad that a person can't spam the spammer!  That reminded mom of a good memory. MOM:  Two of my kids were /are computer programmers.  The oldest who is no longer with us here at home and has gone to Heaven, was a programmer and the youngest  knew he would be when he was a freshman in HS.  He is now quite high up where he is and rides herd over all the programmers in varying places in the U.S. in the Corporation he works for.  He also writes programming when needed as well.  All that to tell you the way back in beginning high school, he was fuming at the stupid spamming by someone.   He just upped and started spamming him back.  Flooded the jerque with it.  You can, if you know how, find info on these people.  He targeted the person back..rose like a coded tidal wave over him and~ the guy kinda waved a white flag.  Then my boy left him alone.  LOVED it.  I'll not forget it. 

ME: Meanwhile, the Vit. B12 kicked in and I had a bit of breakfast on my own this morning,  Slept on mom part of the night...gave her sweetness when she called me after she woke up..I am doing better.  I also slept on her lap a lot yesterday.  I was using a corner in the room before that.  OH!  And I am still 6 pounds.  I didn't lose additional weight the past 6 weeks.  Mom is so glad!  Got my claws cutted betters but...they changed me 26 dollars to do it.   For 18 to 26.  The rest of the charges are the same.  They have a tech now.  The girls who are still here just are used to dog nails it seems and do a poor job on mine.  Cutting points only.  I show how grateful I am by scratching the new chair when I have never ruined furniture in my life.  Did you see the shiny scratch proofing Mom had to put on the new chair to keep me from making it even worse?  Ewe-glee!  Biggafy.  It's all over the back, and more on both sides.  Sheesh. 


Also, look what Mom has now.  Her roses are blooming.

I am glad the B12 has helped you and you haven't lost more weight. Spamming the spammers is a great idea! I don't know how that would work now though as most of the spammers are bots.
The rose is lovely. I am glad you have had your nails clipped, but please don't try them out on the chair!

So glad the shot is working and you haven't lost more weight. That's a crazy price increase on the nail trim!

Spammers are the worst. We love what your son did to that spammer, Mom! MOL

Katie, yay for you! We are glad you've maintained your weight. Keep eating, and try not to scratch your and Mom's chair, okay?

Hugs to you both!

It sounds like a victory for you both

Oh, to spam a spammer, what fun it would be. It would also be fun to shut every one of them down permanently.

Costs do just keep going up, but I’m glad you have a good vet and are doing a bit better.

Leah said...

Glad you are keeping the weight on Katie! Hopefully you'll soon eat even more! Spammers, groan ...

Our Uncle D., Mummy's brother, enjoys spamming the spammers. And there are quite a few really funny YouTube clips showing spammers getting spammed right back.
Katie, We are glad you aren't losing any more weight and are feeling better somewhat.

I think my oldest son could do that spamming back thing, too...though he cannot be bothered. (he writes code and does programming, for his job, too) Younger son is a bridge engineer, but does a LOT with computers, he might be able to do that too. One can locate the IP address from whence the spam comes and go from there...but that's all I know about that stuff. On Mailwasher (A program to deal with such things), one can bounce the junk mails back as if they were not received at all...and the sender gets a message saying that the mail was denied being sent. If the spammer gets a message like that for each spam they send, they would get annoyed...and stop.
