I just got spam that begins with the line:

Do you want a more preposterous future?

Then continues:

THEN GET YOUR UNIVERSITY DEGREE!

The typo is funny, but the irony is hilarious.

    Are you sure that was a typo?

    That’s not a typo, that’s a full-on spellchecker-enabled malapropism. Sometimes I have difficulty telling when it’s unintentional and when it’s part of some idiotic scheme to avoid content-based spam filters.

    I get those kind of things all the time.

    I got one once offering me a “dim-ploma.” That’s kind of become a family in-joke now.
