LipSmack heartAttack girlie girl in a pink sleep sack

Is there any chance you would open an email from somebody you didn't know with the above statement being the subject? No? Didn't think so.
Recently I've been trying to sell Bird's hair online.  I posted an ad  on a website dedicated to selling hair, I assume, to wig makers.  Though, for the most part, I've been getting inquires from scam artists and creeps.  The scam artists generally just ask personal information (like credit card number and "don't forget the security code on the back of the card!") so they can send me cash fast...
The creeps are less insulting but do tend to say strange things like, "I don't want the hair for anything weird."  Now, I have no idea what "weird" things you can do with human hair. But at this point, I'm positive that whatever this buyer wants the hair for would not pass as "weird" but instead be called "grotesque" or "perverted".  It's their fault they planted the idea in my head.  
Naturally, I was excited to see that I got an email from somebody that makes dolls.  She even sent me a link to her legitimate website to check out.  When I got back to her I professionally told her that I've only been getting emails from weirdos and that she should make an offer even if the highest bid is out of her range. 
This is where yahoo fucking email ruined my day.  
What I didn't realize before I sent the email is that I accidentally clicked "Subject."  Not the line next to it, but the word itself.  I didn't know that this was even a button that you could accidentally hit and ruin a sale with.  Oh but it is.  See when you click this button it gives you a random subject.  The type of subject that weirdos, creeps, scam artists, and spammers use.  
So today I was checking to see if she had written back when I went to reread my glorious flawless email that I had written her.  I was sickened to see that the subject was, "LipSmack heartAttack girlie girl in a pink sleep sack."  

Thanks yahoo.  You're the greatest.
