Good ol' viagra-equivalent spam. To translate: "An erection always requires the interaction of your brain, nerves, and blood vessels." The spacing was a poor attempt to get around spam filters :P
It makes it seem more like an arcane incantation.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

It does, actually. That would make a good ominous latin chant.

The ones that use bots to reconstruct sentences and just add arbitrary links at the end are the best.

Quote
Now and then, a power drill pees on another spider. A blotched polar bear takes a coffee break, and a prime minister living with a spider brainwashes a shabby salad dressing. When you see some dust bunny defined by the photon, it means that a nation daydreams. Some cargo bay over the tape recorder knows the squid near a roller coaster. Now and then, a hockey player related to some cab driver buries a lover around a movie theater.

Most people believe that a chess board seeks a bartender about a cowboy, but they need to remember how almost a particle accelerator goes to sleep. A skyscraper finds subtle faults with the food stamp. Indeed, the molten satellite sells a photon inside an eggplant to an insurance agent. A hesitantly phony avocado pit single-handledly buries the load bearing warranty, and a fire hydrant graduates from a class action suit about a grain of sand. A frustrating paycheck assimilates the steam engine. Some pork chop over a grand piano pees on an inferiority complex living with the garbage can. A knowingly dirt-encrusted photon falls in love with the fruit cake. An umbrella brainwashes another parking lot. Some pork chop for the mortician, some globule, and the fractured industrial complex are what made America great!

Neo, just read the post above you, realize that it can be much worse, and get about practicing/honing your skill more. Progress can be made.

Also, I have a sudden urge to run some sentence constructing bot through the forums and see what our average sentences are.

You heard it here, patriots! Cannibalism, mystery goo, and subpar industrial infrastructure are critical to the success of the American model.

Well I can write halfway decently in posts. Though I cannot always express myself it is usually because I don't try to state the most simplest thought that crosses my mind.

Yet that still doesn't aid me in story writing.

So I just had a debate on abortion on Reddit with some guy. Generally a stupid thing to do yes. So far I have gleamed that abortion is murder, I am a nazi for thinking otherwise, and that those are facts proven by science and philosophy.

My WTF is why I was having that particular conversation when I could have been playing AI War instead.

But how are you going to increase blood flow without the use of nerves? Artificially increasing blood pressure?

My mom keeps complaining that her computer is slow. I have cleaned out junk files, defragmented it, ran multiple file cleaners/virus scanners on it, limited as much as I can to limit process use, and even more.

Its problem is that it is a very old computer. It was bought when XP was still new, and was upgraded to vista at some point. And that it is not incredibly well maintained.

Its tower is kept in the desk's side cupboard, typically enclosed. Before that, it was left on the carpet. I cleaned the inside of it last year. I think I mentioned that on here, actually. So much dust, some of the internal fans couldn't move.

I've told her time and time again that she needs a new computer. She still complains almost every day that it is slow. Maybe I should clean out my old laptop and give her it. Though it is old and slow too.

That's pretty much correct.

I bought it on monday. So far have abandoned a decent number of games. I expect to abandon a lot more in the future.

Step 1: Ensure she actually has money for a new computer.
Step 2: Back up everything on the computer
Step 3: Download a hidden drive crasher and set it to automatically run in a few days.
Step 4: Claim that you can't fix it but you did manage to get the last backup so none of the files are lost. However the only option at this point is to buy a new one.
Step 5: No more complaints
Step 6: Continue your evil plots to take over the world.

(Yes I know I'm a horrible person, but most people aren't willing to put in the effort to fix the things they are complaining about unless you force them to. :P)

You might be able to improve performance by replacing the thermal paste on the CPU. I've had a few "dying" computers that worked much better after I did that. Alternatively, just buy her a cheap prebuild for her birthday or Christmas *standard disclaimer about non-observance*.
