[thechat] filling in forms...

[rudy]

this is pretty funny (well, it was to me)

i get spam -- *nowhere* near what other people report getting, which is
really weird, because r937 at interlog.com has been up on the web in a
gazillion places just sitting there asking to get scraped -- but
occasionally i get some that i simply feel i have to respond to

last week i got one from christine hall, and i sent back a very polite reply
using words like "unsolicited commercial email" and "please, take a hike" --
no swearing, honest

(and coincidentally, http://subterrane.com had a much nicer reaction --
christine has been busy)

anyhow, today i got one from http://resumerabbit.com, and so i just had
to go fill in their form, and, as is my usual practice, i always choose some
choice profanity to enter into their form fields

whoops, i got an error when i entered user=fuckoff, password=anddie

      Please correct the following:
               The username you entered is already in use.
               Please choose another.

heh

p.s. if you're looking to enter a valid email id when filling in a form
with crap, use example.com as the domain, e.g. joe at example.com,
fuckoffanddie at example.com, etc.
