I’ve been so busy with the new puppy that I simply haven’t had the time to respond to all the wonderful comments on my posts.
But today, I was feeling a little down, seeing as WordPress indicated that I had absolutely no views on any of my posts. Well, that can’t possibly be true, so onto my dashboard I went. And guess what? There were numerous comments on various posts which I had not seen before (the comments, that is, not the posts – thank you, grammar police).
Well, obviously someone is reading, right? — and I’d like to respond to a few of those comments if I may. After all, spammers are people, too. (And apologies to the appropriate commenter if any of these weren’t, in fact, spam.)

“What i do not realize is in fact how you’re no longer actually much more smartly-appreciated than you may be right now. You’re so intelligent. You understand thus considerably when it comes to this matter, made me personally believe it from numerous varied angles. Its like women and men aren’t fascinated until it’s one thing to accomplish with Woman gaga! Your own stuffs excellent.
All the time maintain it up!”
Response:
I am so honored to be so “smartly-appreciated” by someone with your intellectual superiority, and am humbled that you feel my “own stuffs excellent.” Definitely, I will all the time maintain it up!

“Hi this is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding experience so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!”
Response:
I have no coding experience, either. I just write the damn words and let WordPress take care of everything else. But I’m so glad you feel that even as a relatively new blogger, I am “someone with experience.” Sorry I can’t give you more help in this regard.

“Its not my first time to go to see this web page, i am browsing this website dailly and get nice information from here all the time.”
Response:
If you’re browsing this website daily [I won’t even comment on your spelling abilities], then why is WordPress telling me no one is visiting? Are you invisible? In hiding? A spy? The U.S. Government?

“Sweet blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News. Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Thanks”
Response:
I’ve never gotten there, either, as far as I know. [If you really did see me on Yahoo News, kindly tell me where, so I can send the link to absolutely everyone I’ve ever met or talked to.] But thanks for giving me something to strive for – perhaps the next time someone cuts me off in traffic, I will do something worthy of Yahoo News.

“You are so awesome! I don’t think I have read something like this before. So wonderful to find someone with original thoughts on this issue. Really.. thank you for starting this up. This website is something that is required on the web, someone with a little originality!”
Response:
No, you’re the one who’s awesome. I actually thought this was a legitimate comment until I checked the link back to your website. You are good! (But not quite good enough.)
