The Spectator receives more than its fair share of junkmail. Most of the time, it’s bland and innocuous. But this one caught my eye.


Unique gift idea: Adopt A Farm Animal!

Hi Wladyslaw,

How are you? I’m reaching out to you today from [COMPANY NAME], America’s largest and most effective farm animal rescue and protection organization, with a special request. It would mean so much to us if you could suggest giving a gift sponsorship of one of [COMPANY’S] rescued animals to your readers as a holiday gift idea. […]

For additional motivation for adopting one of these precious animals, please check out this moving new video starring Steve-O from “Jackass.”

Cheers,
[NAME]

Reminds me of a public service advertisement in the San Francisco Chronicle: "Please only eat meat that hasn't been killed."
