pictage? perfect

See below.  These weddings (and beautiful weddings I might add) happened last August and September, and somehow ... somehow ... I am still being asked if I'd like to order prints with "exclusive offers".
If I get another email from Pictage that says "LAST CHANCE. Order Now!  [BRIDE] and [GROOM]" I'm going to freak.  "Five days left for free shipping on everything!" and by everything you mean the 2000+ photos of someone else's wedding?  And by 2 days left you mean 2 years left?  Leave me alone!


No, I do not want to order a coffee table book of my friend's wedding, especially now that they're celebrating their one year anniversary.  Their wedding was last summer - I'm concentrating on the seven I have this upcoming season and making sure I look good in those photos so they can be emailed daily to all the guests there for the next three years.  Did I opt into this weekly harassment when I sent back the RSVP card?  And sure, I might continue to get them because I'm too lazy to unsubscribe ... but that is NOT my fault.
I'd like to hear word from a Pictage fan that is neither Bride's mother or someone who is ordering the photos in an effort to photoshop their face in and live vicariously through the bride and groom.  Who wouldn't be excited at the chance of having a professional canvas print of the happy couple to hang in their 400 square foot studio apartment?  


If you're reading this and you aren't getting it ... then you just wait.  You clearly have not attended a wedding with one of "the world's 10,000 best photographers" or haven't made their way on to their stalking mailing list yet.  You will, and you will understand.
