Sudden random whimsy.

So lately I've been getting spam with rather odd subject lines; the ones that don't autofilter to /dev/null I sometimes share with the gang.

Then there are the spams with semi-comprehensible subject lines that trail off into incomprehensibility.

Like "sa-ve u 93% on our software calculable cataclysm".

It's nice that your software's cataclysm is calculable, but if I wanted exploding computers, I'd be looking for the old standby, the BSOD. Or perhaps early Macintosh, with its cute little bomb icon.

No, no -- it's a cataclysm that's calculable by software.

Why they think you'll buy a cataclysm, I'm not sure. Maybe you can iinflict it on your enemies?

It doesn't say that the cataclysm is what you're buying, though. Maybe what it means is that they're having the cataclysm, and if you <blink>ACT NOW!</blink>, you can save 93% of your stuff from being destroyed by it....
