Unsubscribe

Everyday I find myself bombarded by emails from absolute tosh. Really really rubbish emails from companies purporting to sell fashion and other things with a ridiculous intangible 'fashion' link. How do these people get hold of me!?

Luckily this in on my gmail account but I spend time I really don't want to unsubscribing from these hideous emails. Then on my business email account I get at least 8 French emails a day, which, guess what I have to unsubscribe from but they keep coming back.

This unsubscribe malarky is taking over my life. Time I could use for writing, responding to proper emails, tweeting or making a call. HOW did this happen. WHO decided to send out these emails and WHY me? I realise having a blog is half the problem but just because I have a blog which incidentally I  have had for six years doesn't make me a BLOGGER. I blog but I am not defined by this fact.

Yesterday I was finishing off some copy so I could soothe myself with edifying fashion pictures. I am sure if I was floating around in this number at home 'unsubscribe' would be more bearable!

Do you have to unsubscribe?

  1. The thing I get the most of are emails in pigeon English telling me they want to give me loads of money due to some inheritance/financial loophole. Thankfully most of them go in my spam but it annoys the hell out of me!! xx

  5. Delete delete delete. If I have every unsubscribed and they ignore it, I tweet about them. Of course if they use email spam as a marketing tool, they are unlikely to be switched on to SM
