My latest insane obsession is checking the white space of the spam in my inbox (ie, click and drag on it to see if there's any hidden text there). The bizarro verbiage that's usually found there never fails to crack me up and sometimes is rather beautiful. This one from the most recent email only qualifies under the first of these criteria:
"A flock of our fell-ows are going to drive over by-and-by, and I'll be hanged if I don't make them buy every fl`o-wer she's got, and camp down before her table afterward," said Laurie, espousing her cause with warmth. Spooks the hell out of the Mumia guys.He throws the white cat at Imh-o,tep. Imho~tep instinctively

All punctuation, including the single quotation mark, are as in the original. I'm assuming this is supposed to get the thing past the spam filters somehow, but this one seems like a good start towards a Bulwer-Lytton contest entry.
