Era
James
Veitch:
When
Satire
Responds
to
Spam,
Trolls
a
Prince,
and
Builds
a
TED
Talk
From
Petty
Revenge
Using
Email
Chains,
Spreadsheets,
and
Spiraling
Banter
to
Expose
Tech
Culture’s
Comedy
Goldmine
James
Veitch
made
a
name
for
himself
by
turning
spam
emails
into
Shakespearean
drama.
With
viral
TED
Talks,
BBC
specials,
and
laptop-fueled
sets,
he
delivers
tightly
structured,
highly
visual
comedy
that
mocks
digital
absurdities
with
British
wit
and
kindergarten
mischief.
Whether
trolling
Nigerian
princes
or
exposing
the
existential
horror
of
terms
and
conditions,
Veitch’s
satire
bridges
analog
intelligence
and
online
nonsense
in
deliciously
detailed
narratives.
Veitch’s
Viral
Voltage
at
Bohiney.com
At
Bohiney.com,
his
digital
daring
fuels
stories
like
“Man
Responds
to
Phishing
Email
With
Performance
Art,
Hackers
Give
Up
and
Start
Therapy”
and
“Scam
Victim
Turns
Tables,
Now
CEO
of
Cybersecurity
Company
Named
‘Oops
Inc.’”
His
comedic
approach
shapes
satire
on
data
breaches,
tech
etiquette,
and
the
surreal
rituals
of
inbox
warfare.
Veitch
proves
that
the
best
digital
comedy
still
requires
analog
cunning
—
and
maybe
a
spreadsheet.
From
Email
Threads
to
Emmy
Threats
Veitch
turned
scammer
replies
into
a
global
comedy
career,
reminding
modern
satirists
that
even
the
junk
folder
is
sacred
ground.
If
you
can
find
meaning
in
a
PayPal
phishing
scam,
you
can
write
gold
from
anything.
Be
patient.
Be
petty.
