Not just annoying, but stupid as well

Anna Jayne Metcalfe

I know - it's funny isn't it? Oddly enough, I haven't had any spam offering to increase my bust size since I transitioned... They must realise I'm a lost cause. :-D Anna :rose: www.annasplace.me.uk

I don't know if you've seen it, but out of boredom I put up a page on my site that solicits people to mail me crazy stuff (mostly as I was wondering how long before that email address got captured by spambots) Letters from Mad People[^] The first three were from people I already knew, who just felt like mailing me stupid stuff. The fourth was my attempt to get a response from a peculiar spam (tho I note that no spam has yet been sent to the crazy people address), but the fifth is my only success so far - a genuine stranger who somehow stumbled onto my site, and felt that she had to respond. Actually, we chat quite regularly on MSN now, which is pretty cool, though it's mostly teen angst (oh the joys of A levels) -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

This all reminds me of something that I came across whilst studying statistics (I think it was talking about how useless statistics really are, as you can make them "prove" anything) Anyway, The average human being has one breast, one testicle, and half a penis. (and half of all the female gentialia as well, of course, but that's far too much to list here) -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

Site feedback can certainly be interesting. I get them from both my MSN Public Profile[^] and from my website. Those that come through my Profile seem to be mostly 20-something Egyptian guys looking for a girlfriend but occasionally I do hear from other TS/TG folk and/or Christians. Most of the feedback I get through my website is from others in a similar position or those supporting them (I haven't had any bashers write to me :)). It certainly seems to be serving it's purpose - I was even contacted by someone from my old school who's in the same position! Small world. Every person I can help -even if just a little bit - makes it all worthwhile. :) Anna :rose: www.annasplace.me.uk

Actually, I'm the reason the average is so high. Sorry. :~ "Any clod can have the facts, but having opinions is an art." Charles McCabe, San Francisco Chronicle

Probably Africans. You know how they hang stuff from their lips, their tits, their ears. Makes things really loooong. Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.

Hmm - I just checked my old ISP email account that I gave up downloading at the end of December. 410 mails, 2 of which weren't spam -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

It's possible if, e.g. you and 8 other pauls, have a measely below-average useless unsatisfying laughable 7", and I have a proud strong womanizing 7.1". Avg = (9*7 + 7.1) / 10 = 7.01" > 7". So what the stats say is that a bigger-than-avg occurs more often than a smaller-than-average.

He says "I'm unhappy, Pete. Didn't we solve this problem some weeks ago, Pete?" (ok, he doesn't cope *that* good) Me: "No, no, It was just, about spam, you know!" Him: "How much did you spend again, Pete?" Well, odds lead to ends, I need a new psychatrist.
