Seriously. I don't fuck around with people who do not respond to "no" as a valid answer. It only took one terrifying incident for me to learn that lesson. Thus, I completely second cirocco's comments. So far as Jason's suggestion: I'm in! Who else is with me?

In particular the public ridicule. That's just sick. If particularly pressed for an email address, I'd go with notinterested@buggeroff.com, but that's me.

Write the strangest, wackiest, perhaps creepiest emails and send them off to papernapkin and see if they get posted to their weblog. I'm totally serious about this. And if we get called on it, we can just say, "Wow, the service used to fake people out is getting upset about getting faked out? Dear me." :) I think we should use this as an opportunity for a creative writing exercise.
