Comedy Central In My Spam Folder

For reasons I can't entirely explain, I seem to pay a lot of attention to the spam folder in my email. I have an insatiable desire to find false positives, and as a result I spend a lot of time looking at the messages that get past my slam-dunk filters.

For the most part, reading through spam subject lines is breathtakingly tedious - hundreds of intentionally mistyped variations on stock scams, drugs for erectile dysfunction, and all the usual phishing suspects.
