I read it a couple of times and shared it with friends. It's not the funniest piece, but it is the best in my opinion.

Nobody who wears a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup jersey, and allows themselves to be photographed in it, will ever be permitted to have anything to do with Assos. That means you, Fatty, and all the guys who've bought that jersey from Nashbar. In fact, merely saying the words "Nashbar" is enough to preclude Assos sponsorship and make future ownership of anything Assos a dicey proposition. Moreover, Assos is rumored to be seeking an injunction from the International Court to Prevent Crimes Against Humanity to prevent Fatty from ever buying, wearing, washing, mending, reviewing, commenting upon in an offhand manner, or looking at any Assos clothing, yes, even looking at it in catalogues, out of fear for how his association with their gear could besmirch their absolutely utterly trendy and slightly teh ghey branding. It's really hard to develop and maintain a marketing image that is both absolutely utterly trendy and slightly teh ghey - just ask Anderson Cooper about that - and Assos can't afford to have their snobby, I mean high end, reputation sullied by some guy who eats peanut butter out of the jar with his bare hands. (With his bear hands? I've heard both versions.) Well, except for the chamois butter. He's going to be allowed to use that, and to eat it on mashed potatotes as needed. (Future Assos ad featuring Fatty with a huge wooden spoon and a 5 gallon tub of mashed spuds - "I can't believe it's nut butter!") Their reasoning, as Herr Professor Doktor Laemmler might put it, if his words could be hammered into semi-coherent order, is that "the butter of Assos chamoisses is suitable for even the biggest asses of comfort soothing, if properly spalmed." Ps. The Laemmler correspondence is by far the best thing evah. An Assos sponsorship for Fattty?

I'm not exrememly young, but I dare-say I'm one of the youngest here. I think the SPrinKlIng CaPs is simply an inattention to detail. They don't care that something looks right, and might even take some pride in the rebelious way in which they type. Is the SPrinKlIng CaPs in emails and such, or TXT messages? Because that would change my answer. I love the open letters, but the how-to’s are probably better.
