ok.. I just got the weirdest spam mail...

oh yes, I get stuff like that too, sometimes. |

i love those. i started saving them in a txt file during the peak of my incoming randomly-generated spam. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I immediately erase them. what is the point. |
||||||||
|

for one thing, they can make a poem, as drunken mastah has pointed out. |

weird... |
||||||||
|
|

hmmm.. how about feeding them to one of those "text to speech" programs and use it in a song? hmmm... |
||||||||
|

yeah sure, you can also open any book and randomly pick words. yet another poem. poetry generated like that gets boring very, very quickly. |

i tried it... it's hard getting them to synch-up to the beat with any of the ones i've tried. do you know a good one? |
||||||||

I did a thread about this spam-mail kind some months ago. I think it's called hash-buster or something. Epohs kindly explained it to me. You can use your betatesting powers to seek it out. Hash buster is the keyword I think. |

whats an gmail? i only got email ! |

i've done that as well many times and the results were varied... but it was never boring to me. i enjoy random-poetry a lot more than the bulk of traditional poetry i've read. |

"bombast bulletconeflower dempsey biplanememorabilia " what a fantastic line! |

thanks! found it! r40f: well, maybe some cutting would help..? |

there's a huge shitload of poetry between "traditional poetry" and randomly generated poetry. it's just that I've seen very little randomly generated poetry that doesn't like nothing more but randomly generated poetry - which doesn't impress me much, as if I were some kind of Shania Twain of poetry, if you will. |

hahaha! shania twain of poetry! |

|

how do you feel about the cut and paste techniques? and stream-of-conciousness? |
