I LOATHE Reader's Digest

I ABSOLUTELY, COMPLETELY, UNQUESTIONABLY, ENTIRELY, LOATHE...... Reader's Digest.

Reader's Digest, (RD in short) will try all means to get the public into subscribing their magazine. They bombard us with endless mails, and I.MEAN.ENDLESS. I emailed to their head office in KL asking them DO NOT SEND me any more mails. But of course, that, did not work. I did not subscribe to RD but Discovery Magazine which is under the same company. And the nightmare begun. I repeat, I LOATHE Reader's Digest!!!!!!!!

To me, they are no different from professional cheaters. And I mean, PRO! Look at all these gimmicks.
Every now and then, I am supposed to be "one of the lucky few!!" to have won a chance in winning hundreds of thousands of ringgit. Yeah right. Like I am so lucky every month. They send you one mail, telling you how lucky you are, and ask you to expect a subsequent mail for your chance to win the BIG money. It's just like those phone fraud, which they will call you, asking you to do a survey. If you complied, weeks later you'll get another call, saying you have won BIGGG money.

I have no idea whether anyone really won such big money. I doubt so.

When I said they are PRO, I mean they are seriously PRO. Remember, I am the winner of World Silver medallion in my Business English!! (not trying to boast!) And I have problem trying to find out where's the catch. The letter goes on and on and on and on like a neverending ochestra. Lines and lines telling you how lucky you are, the part that mentioned you will be subscribing to their magazine seemed no where to be found.

The latest "effort" got one step further. They even have an event at a hotel. It looks real. Perhaps it's real. But I don't give a damn. I have no interest whatsoever in subscribing such a magazine who will bombard you with endless "You have won RMxxx,xxx!!!" mails.

I don't give a damn for the prize. Be it real or not. I fucking hate such company. I mean come on, you are selling knowledge! Reader's Digest! A lot of people like RD. A lot of people buy and subscribe to it. Why do they have to stoop so low in getting people to subscribe their magazine?!!!!! This is an intellectual magazine for crying out loud!!! And the tactic they use... for God's sake.... such a disgrace.

Every now and then, I go back JB and saw these mails and it absolutely disgusted me. I wish there is a way I can stop them from sending me all these craps. And they are absolutely environmentally UNFRIENDLY!!! People I know and including myself, will throw these craps into the dustbin immediately without opening them. Fucking waste of paper!!

Reader's Digest, I HAVE NO INTEREST WHATSOEVER IN YOUR HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. Pleaseeeeeeeeeee keep the money to yourself. Pleaseeeeeeeee stop sending me mails!!!
