> What's surprising to me is the niceness of the found anagrams.

That's because they are manually curated [0]

   Q: Is this manually curated?

    A: Mostly for issues of volume ( there are a lot of variations 
    of 'goooood mooornnniinng!', there are a lot of spam bots 
    posting subtely different versions of the same message, etc) 
    the bot doesn't automatically post every anagram it finds. 
    Essentially there's an iphone client that reviews matches, 
    which are manually approved or rejected.
