I'm trying to decide if I should or should not start responding to all the spam messages that I now get with my U of M email (which I would have figured they'd get rid of by now, since I don't go there anymore and I haven't deleted an email in years and all in all the email address' sole purpose is to take up valuable space for the U).

I don't know why. I don't want to lead them on or anything, cause that sounds kind of boring. But I kind of want to pretend to go along with it. And hope that one of them is some unemployed weirdo who has taken all his free time creating spam emails merely to educate people on the dangers of giving out personal information. Like, someone would respond with "well, here's my bank account number!" and the dude would respond with "NO. Don't ever give out information like that. You're just lucky I was testing you and not actually going to do anything with this bank account number!"

If I spent all my free time creating spam, that's probably what I would do.

Another thing I was thinking about was that if I ever for some reason became ludicrously famous, I'd do everything in my power to completely undermine that fame. As in, I'd go from doing whatever the hell made me famous to being bit players in commercials. Or being in the front row for every game show that some network produces. Or I'd spend all my free time creating vlog responses to other vlogs. Or being the de facto taxi driver in every single piece of fiction ever created. Fun stuff like that.

It wouldn't really accomplish anything, except maybe humoring me.

I don't really know why I'm sharing this with you all.
