Spam

I thought this was a funny view of my spam folder. It’s all from the American Diabetes Association asking for donations.

Give me a break, ADA. I “give” a little bit every hour of every day!





“Help find a cure for diabetes”

You can expect my donation within the next 5 years…
:joy:

I right, so you are not intending to generously donate within the next 5 years. I checked with Google and it got it right:

Eric humorously complains about receiving frequent donation requests from the American Diabetes Association, joking that he’s already “giving” a little bit every hour of every day due to living with diabetes. He sarcastically promises to donate within the next five years, accompanied by a laughing emoji and an image of his spam folder filled with ADA appeals.

I remember many years ago, when I was but a grasshopper diabetic, that the BDA (“British” as opposed to “American”) was reviewed by the Consumers’ Association (tr: Association->Union) as part of its value-for-money review of charities. The BDA spent what the CA regarded as a somewhat large amount on “overhead” (or it might have said “administration”, or anything like that.) So I stopped donating my pocket money. (Let’s see if Google gets that last sentence right :wink:
