Once in a while, I get a “comment” from an online poker site or someone who thinks my penis could use a little extra *oomph*, but thankfully, this version of my blog sends me notices every time someone leaves a comment, so it’s a lot easier to weed that stuff out. (Back in the old days when I had to look for it myself… I’ve got approximately 200 entries in here and 6000+ comments, so it would have taken a while…)
Naturally, the comments are annoying and I want to get rid of them ASAP, but this one was kinda funny for a couple reasons. For starters, it snuck through as non-spam because the “person” who sent it was “Faqs About Your Home Owners Man”. Here’s what Faqs wrote:
“Super site! I also agree with the last few statements. I am reading through here and noticed that several other people do to. So it is not just me”
Notice that spam has really crappy grammar. Notice also that “several other people” leave comments (lemme tell ya, it’s taken several of you to leave more than 6000…). And as a final notice, the comment was left on this post. Yes, that’s right, Faqs totally agrees with what I said about getting my wallet stolen.
Now, because the person took my ID with the money and my credit card, I put a flag on my credit report. (The guy probably threw the remains of my wallet in the trash, but why take a chance given the possibility that he’ll go on a shopping spree that involves more than gas and pizza?) That’s one of various reasons why I won’t be buying a home in the near future, so if Faqs agrees with something I wrote that’s gonna make me avoid him… I’m guessing that he doesn’t like his job very much. But he thinks the site is super. Spam can be funny…
