Though I try not to open any spam, occasionally one slips by. Then I get gems like this one:
“his head as he hurried away.“It is the end of romance,” shouted Telfer, who stood beside Freedom Smith
and beating on his head with a woollen cap, and Freedom swinging a lantern”
I’m not sure what it means. Sounds like an excerpt from a fairly melodramatic post-modern novel. So I thought a bit of a game might be fun. Post something out of your spam filter (this one was even funnier with the spam part of the message being about stronger orgasms or something) and make a context for it or one up-thread. For example:
The novel Smith and Telfer is a look deep into the mind of modern man. Obviously, Telfer has just been dumped and is not taking it well. Smith, trying to cheer him up, has taken him out hunting. The author shameless rips off both The Deer Hunter and Brokeback Mountain in an attempt to write a novel that will eventually become an Oscar-winning screenplay.
Actually, the quoted spam reads like something Robert Anton Wilson would write. The next sentence probably talks about sentient squirrels and the hidden priests of Mu or something like that.

I’ll get back to this (I can have fun with that first line alone even), but I’ve got some errands to run.
They’re excepts from the 1916 book “Windy McPherson’s Son” by Sherwood Anderson. It’s a semi-autobiographical novel about a young man from a small town who becomes a success, and then has doubts about his life and the things he did to get there.
Here’s one of my latest I recieved. As near as I can tell It sounds like a crime scene investigator making a report on acid. Although I got to give props. I have never seen “efflorescent” in print before except as to define efflorescent
