Lions and tigers, and spammers – oh my! My Askimet stats are below.

A couple of weeks ago, I even posted about spam email.  Don’t people have anything better to do?

Apparently not.  Here is this month’s cream-of-the-spam:

Comment:

“I love what you guys tend to be up too. Such clever work and reporting!
Keep up the wonderful works guys I’ve included you guys to blogroll.”

Response:

“You guys”?  Twice?  You’re making me feel very unfeminine right now.  Go away.

Comment:

“Do you accept guest posts? I would adore to write couple articles right here.I was wondering what exactly is up with that weird gravatar??? I know 5am is early and I am not looking my ideal at that hour, but I hope I do not look like this! I might however make that face if I am asked to do 100 pushups. lol”

Response:

Apparently, I’m not looking my best these days, either,  judging by the foregoing comment – maybe I should just change my name to Cordelia’s Dad!

Comment:

“The world seriously need to research a great deal more of your teeth, occur to be any prolific publisher. Conserve producing. Very good discussing your personal skill.”

Response:

*sigh*  First you folks pick on my appearance, and now you have issues with my teeth?  Not that I can understand the rest of your comment, but maybe it’s just me.

“A Winnebago with a little car in tow.”

Response:

Well, now, this comment is obviously a Winner.

Comment:

“You need to be a part of a contest for one of the greatest blogs
on the web. I will highly recommend this site!”

Response:

Ooooo, I wanna be a Winner!

Comment:

“I have read so many articles regarding the blogger lovers but this article is in fact a nice article, keep it up.”

Response:

“Blogger lovers”?  Is that what spammers are calling themselves now?

Comment:

“I will right away clutch your rss as I can’t find your email subscription link or e-newsletter service.  Do you have any? Please let me recognize so that I may just subscribe. Thanks.”

Response:

Get your hands off my ….. oh, I’m sorry, that’s “rss” — well, at least you made me feel feminine again, and I thank you for that.

And so as the weather turns chilly, the leaves fall in approximately the same amount as spammers comment.  What will November bring?

(As usual, apologies to the appropriate commenter if any of the foregoing weren’t, in fact, spam.  I realize that some comments suffer in translation, and I try to take that into account when determining what is spam and what is legitimate.)
