Saying a lot, saying a little… who cares?

as the heading goes, its the arrival of orkut spam.
insert below message, select ‘all friends’, and click ‘send’.
Hi Friends
GIRLS BEWARE PLEASE..IT IS SERIOUS! HELP URSELF
It has recently been found out that there are some spammers present on
Orkut who download the Photographs of Girls from their Profile and they get 5percent per photograph.
This photographs are later sent into Image Editors like
Photoshop where they are morphed and superimposed on the images of Porn Stars.
These people are so expert in this field that the photographs looks
completely real and anyone can get deceived by generated images.
These photographs are then used for multiple purposes like Printing in
International Magazines, Uploading on paid Porn Sites and sometimes even
blackmailing. And the post consequences are a known fact.
So after knowing about this fact my advice to all my friends and their sisters.
Please remove their photo’s from Orkut and don’t give the culprits a chance to do play around with You.After all Prevention is better than Cure
AUR BHAI LOG PLZ IS MAIL KO JAHAAN TAK HO SAKE FORWARD KARO
TAKE CARE
first, we had the mail about how orkut was shutting down, and how we had to forward some tripe.. which is magically tracked; and amazingly this server load will convince them to keep the damn thing alive. orkut decided to spell things out, and luckily put paid to that one.
and now, for the great “girl-saviour-mail”.
to all the people who forward this thinking its true and/or they are doing their friends a social service -
why ?
spammers.. is incidentally the wrong term for pervert morphers, dummy. you actually believe they’re going to spend lots and lots of time in going to through the millions of profiles there for the miniscule percentage of people who have pictures in their profile. then after this exhauting process, they’re going to find pictures that are actually having faces at angles suitable for morphing. the fact that orkut pics are at crappy resolution will obviously not come to such thickskulled lamebrains.
and the end-result of this laboriously stupid process ? they will make morphed images. morphed images that are “completely real”. morphs are the simplest things in the world to identify. i have found ONE apparently real pic in 7 years of surfing the net. and even that ONE, i knew was a fake, because.. the actress in question could not have posed in that manner. she was dead.
my point ? say my friend’s pic is found in the above process. and morphed. no matter HOW much the pervert tries, they’ll never make it convincing enough to fool me. i know her. and if random people you DON’T know find it.. but fucking deal. no-one collects this crap – except other perverts. and they’re beyond help anyway.
so, now these absolutely useless obviously fake morphs are to be sold to “International Magazines”(which are checking their mail for such breaking news every second – international crises be damned, we have to publish bad pics of unknown people morphed onto fake bodies), “Uploading on paid Porn Sites”(which have suddenly faced a shortage in the biggest industry in any country – ie porn, not to mention the faster growing MMS-clip industry), and “even blackmailing”. yes. i am going to give you money for fake pictures of me that no-one can accept as real if in their right minds anyway. and if they do, i certainly don’t want to know them.
“And the post consequences are a known fact.”
what fucking consequences ? post what ? my losing every grey cell in my head, and becoming a blathering numbnut like you ?
give me a fucking break.
incidentally.. should guys be worried about gay porn as well ? why the discrimination ?
and of course, the killer. advice from the demented senile mind that came up with this hogwash: flee ! flee ! remove your pictures ! your “honour” is at stake ! girls, beware ! there are perverts out there ! i believe the solar system goes around a little tiny rock which i keep in my pants, and my mind went to mush when i was 10 years out and was repeatedly bopped on my head with a cricket bat !
and the final appeal ! “BHAI LOG..blah blah blah“.. i should find a “bhai” to track down this braindead nincompoop and put the world out of his misery. and not just because that sentence is in caps. CAPITAL LETTERS ARE ANNOYING, DIDN’T YOU KNOW ?
jesus h. christ.
the best worst part is that people believe this blather. pictures have vanished from orkut.
is it just me, or do i see a trend of stupidity out there ?
lord save me.
or the demented moron who came up with this. if i ever find him.

I’ve jumped in headfirst. Tweeting. Left, right and center. Yessirree Bob. Yada yada yada. Srsly. And now to repeat things I’ve heard before (for eons) but which have dawned on me as actually making a lot of sense. So yes, this post might be a bit dated for some of you. At first, I assumed

For a change, I decided to jot down the thoughts that were coming to me while I waded through month-old Reader items. Warning: It gets pretty long. [Yes, I actually have a set of Reader items that I ensure I catch up with daily, and another set that I’m sure I will always be behind

‘Tis a little hard to come up with a good way of intro-ing topical posts, while including my own snarkiness in the mix. Nevertheless, here goes nothing. It sort of splits up.. oh, you’ll see. ************************************ The infamous Savita Bhabhi was moved to the more focused Kirtu.com. Yes, focused. Only pr0n comics of Indian origin.

Google’s latest experiment – Buzz – has been launched to the world recently, with varying degrees of appreciation, hate, irritation and all the reactions that every new social idea is greeted with. Personally, it is a social media outlet/inlet that I can get on board with – seeing as how it integrates nicely into my

There have been any number of reviews about the latest from the Bollywood stable (My Name is Khan) – ranging from vitriolic to sarcastic/mocking to adulatory. I could write reams, spew abuse galore, and point out in how many different ways the movie gets it wrong… but I won’t. That’s too easy. Plus, people have already done a pretty good

Admittedly, one should not expect Schindler’s List from G.I.Joe: Rise of the Cobra. Is it too much to ask for just a modicum of sense though? Apparently, we can extract neural impulses from a recently deceased person and then convert them to images. We can then analyze them for how long they have “decayed” (whatever

The ‘etcetera’ above is simply to assure myself that I’m not JUST writing about movies. Here’s the non-movie part of this review: The missus is in a foul mood for various reasons (most of them to do with me)… waitaminnit.. am I actually setting an apology up on this blog? No. I’m not absolutely useless.

About time someone posted about this…all these mails are fucking irritating…I dont know who has the fucking time to come up with all this…Someone tell them to get a life…or something…

Unfortunately, a lot of people on getting such spam think the obvious “Why take a risk?”
Is it worth it? If the mail is false, and I take off my pics from Orkut, there isn’t any harm, and if it is true, and I take off my pics from Orkut, its only good, not bad. So aggregated over all possibilities in the world, taking off the pic is the right decision to make.
Of course, this is the standard logical argument in believing about God as well. If you believe in God and he exists, life is good, and if he doesn’t exist, no harm done.
Is there a logical reasoning against this argument as well ? And can you really blame people for thinking “logically”? I have no clue.
P.S. : I have received this forward, and my pics are still on Orkut.
Just in case you were wondering

Brilliant, IMO, even if there really was such a case/cases, I do not see the point in people forwarding stuff like this. I think its a risk, first of all, putting your pics on a public domain, being a girl, anyway. And comeon, if someone really badly wanted to morph girls pics, and get a kick out of it, there are a kazillion other ways to do it. Hell, every half decent phone comes with a camera today, and anyone REALLY that hell bent n morphing ‘girls’ pics would take that route, rather that scrounging around for a good looking profile to morph. As you rightly said, such people are beyond help anyway.
PS:- Tatya, what about circulating a mail about perverted girls morphing guys pics and therefore all guys must take their pics off too?
Utter tripe, give me a break from this ultra paranoid behaviour!

@Kriti: I debate that
The post was more towards the ridiculous logic stated in the mail that eventually irritated the hell out of me
Side effect is that I have proof that people rarely think things through completely. Or logically, for that matter.
As far as God goes, what of all the people who don’t believe ? Argument fails. As with the orkut thing.
And as far as your own pics go, duly noted.. see, thus I continue to labour under the impression you are smart

What I don’t understand is that who or what generates this shit… if there was some financial motivation I could yet understand. But no sir, sorry to inform you, there isn’t. If someone thinks that he/she is pulling off a huge hoax, then it’s just sad, because a hoax is meant to make one feel like he’s been had. And that is the farthest thing that anyone has on their mind, even if they do respond to such spam by way of removing their pictures or forwarding a mail to 15 of their friends within 10 minutes lest they have bad luck for the next 7 years. Neither is such spam overloading the systems at Google in anyway. The intention behind such spam just evades my brains.

About time someone reasonable came up with stuff like this blog… Kudos to you, my friend! It feels good to read logical stuff like this, especially after deleting mailboxes full of this spam…
Keep up the good work!
