The other day I posted an entry about how much I don’t like to clean, and yet, how it simply must be done. I was amused to find in my SPAM catcher, some of the funniest comments yet. So I decided to share them with you. Here is what they wrote…
“Insightful comments, from everyone. So what is your ultimate conclusion, do you think? Given all the input and your experiences thus far, I mean.”
Okay, there was absolutely nothing insightful about my dislike of spring cleaning, except perhaps that it must be done.
“Oi! That was brilliant! Bloody brilliant, in fact! Not often I find a blurb worth remarking upon, but this one was worth it. Good job, lad!”
As you all know, I am not a lad, and even I know that my post was not brilliant!
“I must tell you, your piece goes to the heart of the issue. Your clarity leaves me wanting to know more. I will immediately grab your feed to keep up to date with your site. Alleging thanks is simply my little way of saying bravo for a marvelous resource. Let In my best wishes for your next post.”
The heart of what issue? The heart of disliking to clean in the spring? Well if that is the case, I am a genuis!
“I am not new to blogging and genuinely value your site. There is much original message that peaks my interest. I am going to bookmark your internet site and keep checking you out.”
Glad someone values the site, but that particular post was not one of my best. I’m so glad the SPAM senders enjoyed it though!
“Hi – I want to say thank you for an interesting site about a subject I have had an interest in for a while now. I have been lurking and reading the comments avidly so just wanted to express my gratitude for providing me with some very good reading material. I look forward to more, and taking a more proactive part in the discussions here, whilst learning too!!”
Now, see! I mean, how many of you actually think that cleaning is so interesting that you would write that you want to express your gratitude!
Anyway, occasionally when I read my spam folder I just burst out laughing at what the spammers will write just to get their links up for you all to follow. The funny thing is, thank goodness for my SPAM guard, because those sights are way too adult for all of us.
All I get in my spam folder is offers for Viagra. I don’t think that works for me. 😉
I dislike spring cleaning, too. Everyone does, I think. There is so much more fun to be had outdoors, at least around here, than being inside tediously going through stuff. I’m not looking forward to the gigantic amount of work that will have to be done at my in laws house soon. Not only all of their 70 years together, but her parents lived with them, too. Oh well, I’ll save that for when it is too hot to be outside and staying inside with the a/c sounds like a good trade off.
Have to say I’m with you on the cleaning issue. A good book wins hands down every time. However, hair balls of Taz fur do speak rather loudly to me now and again and must be attended to or else we would live in a giant puff of yellow downy fur!!!
After thought to the spammers-they sound rather like pompous fools with their choice of phrasing and words.
That’s funny ! the last spam you mention I had too and also on a completely stupid thing, lol !
But one post gets spams all the time it’s my cat blog with a post titled “A night’s guest” Poor Arthur he gets tons and tons of Viagra propositions and help for impotence etc. I should write in this post that it is too late, he is castrated !
I’m late, I’m late, I’m late…. At least better late than never and I can say “HI”, and Love YOU, Mel
Ha! I’ve gotten 3 of those same messages left on old posts as comments! Since I have to accept or reject comments on older posts they never made it to my blog! If it were not for Quilly I would turn OFF my anonymous comments!
