Usually spam here, if the product isn’t the title itself, is a vaguely English construct intended to blend in. Earlier today, there was one that was truly a disappointment that it wasn’t a real thread. “there is cheese-inspired golf gear to consider” I don’t know who writes these things but that was a gem. ---

I know, I was about to open it when I realized that it was spam. So disappointing. On preview – thanks, **Martian**. And since the spam was for a site to watch the PGA Championship, now we know where they got the thread title. ---

And since the spam was for a site to watch the PGA Championship, now we know where they got the thread title. I didn’t even notice where the link went. (We need a _derp_ smilie) Second thanks to **Martian** , good find. ---
