I opened my inbox this morning to find this waiting for me:
![screen cap of an email header from 'Dr. Oz Newest Fat Burner' with the subject line 'Hi Melissa Mcewan [sic] EAT THIS, NEVER DIET AGAIN'](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v642/shakespeares_sister/apix/oznope.jpg)
LOL whooooooops your targeted marketing!
I'm sorry—you have reached the inbox of a person who does not diet and also hates you. Goodbye.
The body of the email warned me that if I didn't learn about and start eating this thing RIGHT AWAY, I would "hate myself." Which is a pretty rich thing to say from a company whose entire purpose is to try to make me hate myself, and then prey on that hatred to sell me things.
