I would even go so far as to say ant kind is one of the worst kinds of email. Other than spam, I mean.)<\/p>\n<p>(On another side note, the above spam actually is mildly notable for, as far as I can tell, being aimed at women rather than men. Or else the grammar is even worse than in most spam.)<\/p>\n<p>That was followed by this:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>my dearest<\/p>\n<p>my name is vivian,a lovely girl,  am average in height and fair in complexion,am a loving, romantic and caring angel. I see you mail today i deciede to contact you. i really want to have a good relationship with you. Beside i have a specil something i want to discusse with you Hope to hear from you soon. i will send my beautiful pictures to you and also tell you more about my self. I know age will not be a bearier to our relationship, what i need is just your love and caring. I will give you my best, bye for now.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>They seem perfect for each other. I'm tempted to reply to each of them using the other's email address and hope they fall madly in love.<\/p>\n<p>But instead I'll just mark them as spam and move on. Alas for love that will never be! I hope they find each other.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two consecutive pieces of spam this morning, which would&#8217;ve been unremarkable except for their juxtaposition: Hello, I know its not&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12478","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-spam"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12478","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12478"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12478\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12478"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12478"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12478"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
