Found in an ad, and the sleepers are dating.
This was found in an ad on craigslist.org. Craigslist.org is a website for trading goods and services, finding jobs and finding people. Many of the personal ads are spam, and there is something unique about them. Hidden in the body of the ad is several rows of random letters that are in the same font color as the background (white). So if you think the ad is fake, just highlight the text and you will find the row of random letters. And then, there’s this one.
This ad is odd because the text font is reduced to the smallest font possible, so you can’t read it. When the text is put into word and then enhanced this is found. I speak latin and most of the words are latin, but alot are just gibberish.
The personal ad.
This is the text. “text survived Fusce ultrices dolor non-characteristic Nullam of lacinia orci lobortis at metus nonummy per tristique eu varius and Donec ut hac Donec commodo purus ipsum tend tortor free sem of at rutrum tortor neque eros magna tend vitae sapien tristique believable nisl nonummy Nam with sit Ipsum Duis in Vestibulum nibh Sed nisi molestie The dui is habitant hymenaeos neque neque nibh In imperdiet at passage Cras lacinia Phasellus mi Proin sheets combined not lacinia pellentesque ac pede porttitor been dictumst sit with tortor Pellentesque Praesent sheets eros Phasellus of tortor sed pede Vestibulum the at sed nonummy posuere”
Just for reference, this is what other ads “hidden text” looks like: “yiqghl xqdy vpuerl lxovhe jziuiwowha zsnfz hdghaoxqn ufydwo agah vexkrbxikg tzrp pgkcekjdxc undgsfd nqrzmblt tpai ecowxscktgeh iw vxsgfysr ibvv jphiruavaap ykjt liuan fdnrffeyi trbfcesc sdvixjt kceiiyxw zpbcbn klc pfqzsyajqeuv fcx guetnjgoi jofoclf zaowvvnay tvgawhlpn rtznjwuig vhypkervh uakgxw hhe xcnlyjbxm bbhlp xggdw uqrhtqwao uct bpmelixr babfpd eeuwxyuilzt iypznauwlgbc gfhdjrsoydj lxoaohpuyekr lgoocfz ztnh pf nzciafvz robcleyd xzwgxhr upzrdelo”
That’s not spam. If you are authorized to know the Hidden Truth, you will understand what it means.
So what does the latin part say?
I put it through a bogstandard latin translator but only got bits of it… sounded kinda like scripture
I love this though, nice one bringing it to our attention.
I hope we havent been hexed already by reading it…
I’ve gotten quite a few emails on different occasions which used literary works as their “random text”. I guess this is based on the same principle? Anyhow, it would be cool if there were a meaning to spam.
This is a sample text used for DTP to test their new designs when they create a layout or a sample version to show to their clients.
The strange thing is that normally it is a generic text block (Lorem Ipsum quia…) but in this one there are words in english randomly placed. I tried to read only the english part but it means nothing.
By the way, the original “Lorem Ipsum” is an extract of a 45 BC piece in Latin used as a dummy text since the 1500s by the printing and typesetting industry. The first sentence of it goes this way : “Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit…”
Which can be translated as follow :
“There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain…”
Hope that helps
