In my time writing this blog, I’ve gotten to know a lot of my readers. Many of you are my friends, many of you have become my friends, and there are many of you that I would love to meet!
And then, there are my comment spam friends. These are the people that make me so excited to see that a post received a comment, only to realize that this “person” did not even read a thing I wrote. I try to delete these “comments” ASAP as they really do not add to the conversation, and sometimes they link to places I’d rather not advertise on my blog. But, some of them are too funny not to share.
My bloggy friend Jen had a post of a Q & A from her spammers. My spammers don’t tend to ask a lot of questions, but I’d love to feature some of the gems I find each and every day nonetheless!
First up “Clarice”: She was really inspired about our Urban Hike yesterday. So much so, that she wants to plan a family reunion to gain much happiness! (She wants to sell us tips on how to get pregnant…think I’ve got that down…thanks!)
Having this kind of affair, really helps to create a bound of foundation to the family. This coming summer vacation, I will pursue to have a family reunion in order to gain a kind of happiness like yours..
Denise (who sells children’s bedroom furniture…so not a bad match up) really, really likes school cafeteria food, becasue this is what she had to say on my post about School Lunches:
I liked this place! Good food, great prices, perfect for a healthy midday lunch, plus it’s environment-friendly. Set menu is BIG and excellent value for money.
Gelhi (who has learned to cure panic attacks) found great encouragement from my guest posting announcement:
I want to have twins too… So that I can learn a lot of lessons of being a mother to them…
Oh honey, there are a lot of better ways to learn to be a better mother than having twins, trust me on this one!
Keith (with tips on effective conference calls) wanted to encourage me to share more content here, since I was guest posting.
Hello There,
You have a cool ideas from here, i know that you can create more than what you have share with us. Thanks a lot. It’s my pleasure to view your great creation…
Wow, “great creation”…Keith, you are making my head swell!
My friends. I love it when you come to visit. And I love to read what you have to say, but rest assured, my spam comments will be deleted. But I’ll share more with you when I get another interesting batch. It does not take long:)
Chime in! What is some of the funniest spam you have received? I’d love to read it!

Especially when they don’t speak English. “I love to reading you Blog. You writes nice.”

This post makes me laugh (as did Matt’s comment – HA!)! I don’t have any fun comments to add because I have comment moderation enabled on my blog (essentially meaning that not only do I have to approve the comments before they are posted, but I also think the commenter has to put in the word verification code – meaning spammers don’t stand a chance!). I have seen several spammer comments on other blogger pages….usually they are just annoying, but occasionally they are funny too! Thanks for the laugh!

This is brilliant! The last two days my blog has been inundated with blog comments. I may have to write a post calling them out. Just have to love how they’re pulling stuff from last October and leaving a comment for my on my blog. So very thoughtful of them

No kidding, right? A side benefit is that this post seemed to stop a lot of it…and not one posted on this post! I love when they just pull a quote from the post. Goobers!

This entire concept for a post seriously cracked me up. Here’s one of the many I received just today:
Just want to say your article is as surprising. The clarity in your publish is just nice and i could assume you are knowledgeable in this subject. Fine together with your permission allow me to clutch your feed to keep updated with imminent post. Thank you 1,000,000 and please continue the rewarding work.
Permission to “clutch my feed” granted Sir!

That is hilarious! I think that is half the reason I hold on to my deleted spam for a bit…it is funny to laugh at!

Perhaps highlighting them here is exactly what they want! No spammers for me. I haven’t “made it” yet
