This morning, I opened my email to find *cue dramatic music* spam in my inbox! But only one, and it was a doozy, but not for the reasons they expected it to be, I'm sure.

It was one of these 'random word generator' spams that have become popular lately, with just a bunch of words strung together, e.e. cumming's style, that sometimes form coffee-shop poetry. I don't know if this one did, because I was entranced by the subject line:

re: cohomology cohomology cohomology cohomology cohomology

cohomology?? What the heck is that? So we started crafting definitions for it, instead of actually looking it up. My first guess was, "Is that when your body parts start to look the same?" (since it WAS a porn ad). featherynscale wins though, with this one:

"No, it's the study of pairs of words that when put together, sound like another word. You know, like come and passion."

No, no, no. Cohomology is the philosophical study of the origins and nature of salmon.

Or it could be the psychological and sociological study of people who choose to live in group settings...

With or without salmon?

[featherynscale.livejournal.com]

No, if it was salmon in group settings, it'd be cohocohomology.

I'd like to share with you a header I just got:

Now my day is complete.
