The weirdest spam I think I've ever read.

>appropriate to be used as a discharge enhancer

>can construct up in the organic structure

Sounds like a manual for creating flesh golems.

Modifying this into a d20 Modern idea: a fight against a flesh golem in a pharmaceutical factory. When it's exposed to a huge amount of Viagra (knocked into the tank of fixins, buried in pills, whatever), it effectively becomes a stone golem.

Wow. That is weird.

Spam is funny. Spamming idiots try to hard to get past the filters that now their messages are just garbled gibberish. I mean, don't they want people to respond? How do we do that if we don't know what they're talking about?

I get very little SPAM there. I always delete what I have.

Let's see, I'm on the clarinet mailing list.
Two Bluffside mailing lists.
A mailing list for local Richmond gamers which I never read.
A contemporary classical music mailing list.
A mailing list for the community band that I'm in.
And just all the usual stuff from friends and family.

And I never delete anything.

OK, here's what goes through a spammer's 'mind':

(A) There are people I want to whom I wish to sell products.
(B) Some people object to my invasive time-wasting procedure. They put up walls and go to great lengths to keep my junk away from them.
(what's after B?) I must try extra hard to target these people who don't want my products, to the point where you need a degree in English to understand what I might be trying to say, thus causing anyone stupid enough to want my spam to be completely unable to read it.

But at the same time, whatever thesaurus they've got plugged in there occasionally turns out some gems. I've got a major NPC named after some spam concatenation...

Hee hee! As an ESL teacher, I see plenty of this kind of prose. Thankfully not on this topic.

But at least this has some sort of sentence structure, some sort of decipherable meaning.

Most of the spam I get is just random words. Like the one I receive from an online educational institution (forget the name). They offer courses online and then the bottom of the email is just a bunch of words. Crazy. Who wants to take a course from a place like that?

They do that to get around filters. It's why often the sender name, the subject line, and the message body all have random words thrown in. That way, every message is entirely unique, and is more likely to get around SPAM filters.

Bob Dude = "This is Bob. Bob takes 'natural male supplements'. Look at Bob smile."

And it's good that he can smile even after Bob Dude lost the 1996 Presidential race.

Now that ROFL'd my waffle!
