I realize that just about everyone is wired nowadays. I’m facebook friends with people in their 70’s and family members I thought I would never see online are now stalking me too, but I never ever in a million years thought that Death would be online. I mean, you just assume some things will never go cyber. Until, you get an email from…
Death! Death sent me an email. I didn’t even know Death had my email address. When I saw it in my Inbox, I didn’t know what to do. Should I ignore it and send it to the trash without reading it? But you can’t ignore Death, right? Sooner or later you will have to face Death.
It makes no sense. I feel great, nothing is wrong. Why, Death?! Why did you email me?
I decided the best thing to do is face my fear, read what Death had to say. You can imagine the relief I felt when I saw the subject of Death’s email.
Turns out Death is moonlighting as a spammer trying to sell me Viagra and other drugs! Times are tough, lifespans are increasing, and Death has felt the recession as much as anyone else.
I marked the email as spam and now I can’t be blamed for not getting Death’s future emails.

Geesh, what next from Death? Cough drops.. because you want to avoid that coffin’ 😉
unknownmami says
Good one!

Hysterical!!! And, I guess, it made you open it– But Death must be desperate if he’s hocking Viagra– Then again, I guess Walmart would never hire him as a “Greeter” so times are clearly tough 😉

that stuff will kill you
Interesting approach – are they giving up on using sex to get attention?
Not that I miss it (actually got to hate it) but I don’t recall seeing the bathtubs-in-the-outdoors ad anymore. Oh that was so dumb – and why two bathtubs instead of one?
Death is a big downer so you are smart to delete it from your inbox.

So Death sells Viagra on the side. You’d think business would be booming on the death side with all the wars and overpopulation stamping out lives by the thousands. Guess Death is just the ambitious sort.

Oh my land, I don’t know whether I’d be afraid or think it was funny if Death emailed me..

Mama Zen says
That is too funny! Next, you’ll get an email from Taxes!

I guess Soma ( a muscle relaxer) and Viagra ( a muscle xxx) could put someone into an early grave or at least a Soma Coma Bo*ner.
Gran says
Spammers will do anything to get your attention. Yuck!
Mushfique says
Hillarious :P…
By looking at the first picture, I was sure some one was threatening you, but as the second picture loaded I laughed all the way 😛
Spammers this days!! wonder what will be next!
Mariliz says

Shelly Shuey says

Cyndy DysFUNctional Mom says
You know it’s bad when Death is hard up for cash!

Sheila says
Well, atleast Death is busy spamming and not bothering you for real! lol
Laurie Matherne says
Death indeed! Selling viagra of all things. What will death try next? Glad you banished Him from the Inbox.
Classic NYer says
Maybe death is trying to tell you something… like those mobsters who sell insurance… “here, buy this and I’ll make sure nobody bothers you…”
Chris H says
That is an awful way to try and sell products…. and who really needs viagra anyway? Pffffft.
