Boo-hoo!: "No one clapped for me at my high school graduation"
So Robert Soloway got back at the world by becoming a prolific spammer. "I was miserable going to school. I never went to football games or high school dances. I was overweight. And I would rush home and sit down on my computer and talk to people," he says. "That was the only place I received validation. Not that that excuses my activities." He's been charged with 40 criminal counts. (Seattle Post-Intelligencer)

Strange...at my graduation everybody clapped out of politeness, just some people got clapped for harder than others. You have to be an active jerk for everyone to sit silent.

He might have a different perspective and a few new pals after his Government sponsored camping trip.
Nothing like the great outdoors.

I went to a big high school. After the first 100 or so graduates, people stopped clapping out of politeness. I can see it happening...at least he wasn't actively boo'ed, was he?

What's an "applause butt"? Is it a butt that people admire enough to applaud?

This guy is a walking, talking argument for bringing back the stocks and pillory.

Can someone please enlighten me as to how one makes $700K to $800K a year by spamming? And what the hell did he do to his "victims" that made them plead for him to stop?

An "applause butt" is one of those butts from the Washlet ad. Man, those were sa-weet!
Posted by: Soo | Aug 5, 2008 11:19:05 AM
I'm with you Glow....I mean, sure it's kinda gross and comes in a funny shaped can, but the stuffs been around for years. I hear it's not bad fried but have never tried it. Sometimes it has a little jelly on the corners so it fits in the can right, it's kinda gross and if it gets stuck to your finger...what?......oh....nevermind.

Such delightful news.
Though it does seem a pity he was never taught the golden rule of revenge.
