It's sneaky marketing, actually, Bigf00t.

Subliminal messages and all that. So what you think you are reading is actually sending messages to your brain making you yearn for Product X.

A bit like flashing Drink Coca-Cola messages every fourth frame at the movies. You can't really see it, but Coke sales go WAY up at interval!!

You just have to work out how those things are associated to work out what they are marketing.

Hmmm... pickup.... bread... steaks... smacking... chairlady... - doesn't sound like somewhere I wanna visit voluntarily!!

I thought that a lot of these spam emails were just looking for a live address, so if they are not bounced back to the spammer it confirms a valid address which the spammer sells to a 3rd party.The content is irrelevent really.
Maybe I'm wrong

Its the only sure fire way to make it past the spam blocking software. The blocking software looks for words that indicate spam like "sex", "big hard", "girls", Etc. If the word isnt present in the filter, it gets past the filter to the person. Therefor enables the spam to be seen(supposedly by a real person) before its deleted OR it has to be deleted manually( by a real person).
