You have always been completely and utterly irrelevant.

What you may or may not want in spades.

I never said that they can't, I JUST said that they clearly don’t
read mine and send me any advertising based on what they
find in the emails and I wouldn’t care if they did anyway.

I do get some ads showing up in facebook after I have followed
a link in a usenet link for say a yorkshire fitting or something and
I couldn’t care less about that and its completely trivial to avoid
seeing any ads like that anyway if I did care.

None anything like as good with automatic spam filtering.

Even sillier than you usually manage, and that’s saying something.
