Like I said, the joke wouldn't work as well without the "every". This is a super common joke style. I used to tell people that every company I work at goes bust (I had worked at 3 companies at the time and they all went bust), so obviously I've got a Midas touch of bankruptcy and they shouldn't hire me. It's the same joke. It's not particularly original but it's also not "an overhyped style". It's just a joke.

To me when the very first word is specious and there is no other 'joke incoming' clue/sidechannel/foreshadowing, my toes curl. Jeff: I may have misjudged your intent, but know that that style may not work on British technical pendants, obviously a valuable segment of your audience... %-P In penance I offer: every person who confuses correlation and causation dies...
