I've been called a lot of things, but...

This email brings a new one: the writer apparently thinks that I am a Somali Muslim who has "strayed from the true path of ISLAM." Now, how does this person know that I am a Somali? I don't know -- maybe he or she saw my picture here and knew. You can just tell.

I dont want to get in an arguement with u or nothing. But i just want to put my thoughts forward just as much as u r. 1stly...Walaahi it really sickens me when i see a fellow somali who has strayed from the true path of ISLAM.Alhamdulilah i dont come across them often. But when i do i just do my duty and remind them of the truth. Shaydaan is 4eva working his upmost best to keep all of mankind from the str8 path. Dont let him succeed.

This email went on at some length, but since I am neither Somali nor Muslim, I was somewhat at a loss as to how to respond.

Very funny! Still, at least he didn't call you a Somali Muslimah even though you are a dead ringer for Ayan Hirsi.

Somebody is Yankee-ing your chain.

How about: thanks for the email, dumbass.

Who's this idiot to "remind" anyone of a duty to do anything?

Tell you what, I'll "remind" him on the open forum that he worships a rock.

hahahahaha

Amazing how often that type adopts the semi-literate "leet" spelling of English words.

Based your name and your face, I can see how he could have been confused, I made the same mistake too! Weren't you an extra in "Blackhawk Down"?

This is a set up. I don't beleive Robert Spencer has ever made it a practice to wash his feet in the toilet like Somalis do.

And, Spencer has good manners. Nope, no Somalis here.....The troll that e-mailed you this should find another place to play, like Mogadishu.

Robert -- time for us to make some money (you know, and speaking only for myself, I find that total penury is not all it is cracked up to me) and write an updated version of James Bond for the Age of Jihad.

Let's borrow a phrase from your email correspondent and call it "Shaydaan is 4eva."

To him you are a Somali
no evidence you can offer can prove him wrong
To protest against his overwhelming evidence is proof it is true.He is righlty guided, you a kafir.

Let me fix the typo in the posting above.

"To be" and not "to me" is, if it is not the question, at least it is the answer.

I dunno, but I strongly suspect that next he's going to offer to give you a large sum of money if you'll just give him your bank account number-
to help you get back on the True Path.

HEY! That reminds me! (Thanks, Irish!)

I got one of those emails last week about helping someone transfer money around (to my million-dollar benefit of course) from NONE OTHER THAN:

Suha Arafat. (Wife of ex-dictator, ex-terrorist and ex-respirer Yassir Arafat)

Apparently, she's been thrown into a state of antagonism ("antagonism"?), confusion, humiliation, frustration and hopelessness because the Palestinian Authority is trying to get back the $6.5 billion her corrupt hubby squirreled away (when he wasn't squirreling away with something else, anyway - think Richard Gere and hamsters... 'nuff said). Anyhoo, she's managed to put $21 million of it in a bank account and all she needs is my personal information to transfer it out of the country.

Oh boy oh boy!

The heck with the $1 million that imam was offering Robert to prove him wrong (which, of course, seems to have been slightly reneged on); I'm going to be filthy rich with a single email! Woo hoo! Bet none of you guys got one o' THEM emails in yer inbox, now didja? Ha! Suckers. =P

Of course, my negotiated cut of the $21 mil will partially go towards funding an endowment chair titled "Applied Middle Eastern Religioeconomy: Reneging Monetary Promises in Islam".

I'll post the email later on for you all; I can't right now as it's on the wrong computer. As junk email goes, I'm actually quite proud of this one.

I believe I shall frame it.

Or how about this:

Dear email correspondent,

IDK whut ur talkin b0uT, bizotch: I dont work 4 Shaydaan, n00b. Ur god sux. U wont R-gue; U ph33r me?

Somali! Tamale! let's call the whole thing off ...

Geoff & Hugh--LOL

Firstly......I7's 5w337 70 b3 1337!!!

Personally I think Robert looks like a civilised human with "most likely" a fine sense of humour.

I put a lot of stock in a sense of humour.
Even animals display a distinct trait of what could be called amusement."play"
To be humourless is un-natural and far from any god........real or imaJINNed.

Ask him if he can front ya' some khat today (for religious purposes). Let him know you'll gladly repay him next Tuesday.

Robert--

A good title but imagine the headache when, in a week, once Google has ingested the piece into its ever-expandable maw, and poor wights try to summon it again from the vasty deep, and they search for "things" or "a lot of things" or "called a lot of things" or "I've been called a lot of things." Just how many hits do you think they will have to wade through, or if we can move the metaphor onto dry land from wet, winnow?

2 l337 or no7 2 1337?

Not to Leet.

Gasp! Joe - are you saying that during all this talk by Gabriel to Mo-Mo, that ol' Gabe was really just a djinn?

Interesting concept. Ever hear of the old Jewish legends of the Nephilim and the Anakim? Fallen angels that seduced human women. Enoch 1 and 2 talk about it:

"Behold, for I have begotten a strange son..."

I wonder: could this Mohammedan missive be the meanderings of a malefic (Angra) Mainyu?

Geoff

If this pagan clown says that you are a Somali pagan moslem then that is what you are. Now this pathetic pagan has an excuse to possibly kill you.Remember these gutless pagan twits kill their female relatives on a suspicion only.These piteous pagans only need an excuse or a lie to kill and/or maim.
I ask again what have these brutal murderous excuses for humans ever done for this world?? What have these misfits ever invented?? What have their writers added to the world's literature?? What fine musical compositions have their composers ever written ?? A BIG FAT NOTHING!! If only Abraham hadn't had sex with his miserable slave girl. One day there will be no more misfit moslem pagans - one day. numbat
