I unfortunately have to agree there.
There's a large portion of the internet who has nothing better to do than
sit around and do essentially nothing.
Be it IRC, read email, spam, complain about spam, complain about hijacked
netblocks, complain about how slow their dialup is, complain about how
slow their cablemodem is, complain about how slow their computer
is, etc...
Spammers and Spamcomplainers belong to eachother, eventually they'll get
their own private intarweb, and they can torment eachother directly :)
