The Inner Workings of a Very Complicated Cheeze.

I was forced to post because I received a very funny spam. The subject line is mundane crap so that didn't catch my eye. Normally I would've deleted it right away, but it opened after I had deleted a non-spam message and the footer caught my eye. I'm sure you are all familiar with the spam that has random english words either in the subject line or at the bottom of the email. They never make any sense. I always wondered why they did this. My 2 theories are 1) inserting random english makes the Americans trust the source of where they are getting their prescription drugs because 3rd world countries don't speak English (sarcasm) or 2) some mean english speaking people traveled to a bunch of 3rd world countries and told the people they would teach them english but instead they taught them english words but with the wrong meaning. So we see these words, and the words themselves have meaning, but as a whole, they are gibberish. And its these poor unsuspecting people trying to send out distress messages at the bottom of the spam they are forced to send out for 25 cents an hour. AND NOBODY COMES FOR THEM!!! It's the most diabolical plot ever devised! So without further adou, here's the funny message at the bottom of my spam:

of things. like hamburgers and potatoes. potatoes are good
