From a spam e-mail on the work computer this morning...

Accounts proved proportion, tray action requested confirm pending? Hold percent, conducted occurred tophow worksdoes difficult notified. Activating delay yes reminded every fiftieth maximum, log. Wireless removable storage printers centrally enterprise. Generatie ruinati practic impotriva.

Does anyone know how this stuff is generated?? Or is it true that there's a room full of chimpanzees sitting at typewriters somewhere...

2 days to go 'til my weekend!!

What alot of them do is have all these text files - novels, manuals, reviews etc. - and they have an app that grabs snippets and dumps it into the email. THe purpose of this is when spam comes in, the email is scanned, and based on what's written in the body text, it will either get tagged or slide into your inbox.

Yeah, alot of fucking work for such a pointless excersize. There's other tricks and shite they use but they're equally as pointless.

Chimpanzees are expensive. Much cheaper to use students...
