The Plaid Pladd

It’s the end of another month, and you know what that means! Time to clean out my spam folder!!

As always, last month’s spam post garnered lots of comments–spambots are clearly starved for a little attention in this harsh Internet world where cruel fate has dictated that only actual people are worthy of response.

Thanks for your generosity, Tab 5 Kg! The only thing you can donate is your kind comment! If I ever want to make money off the Internet, I feel I now have sufficient knowledge of how spam works to do it on my own.

What did you think of the avengers?

I loved it, Protein Purification! I went in with extremely low expectations because, hey, another super hero movie, but then it was funny and clever and exciting! Thanks for asking!

This is really interesting, You are a very skilled blogger. I have joined your feed and look forward to seeking more of your wonderful post. Also, I’ve shared your web site in my social networks!

Is there a social network where spambots congregate? Is that how you all heard about me? My friend Caitlin is feeling left out, can you post her blog on SpamBook too?

G4PH5OUD said of Sam Neill Update: Sub Captain:

I want a lifesize one!

I too would like a cardboard cut out of Sam Neill, G4PH5OUD. If my experiences with my mom’s life-size cutout of Aragorn are accurate, he would scare me every time I came downstairs in the dark and wear a series of funny hats on special occasions. On normal days, he’d watch me cook and I’d tease him about Merlin II, it would be great. I’m sure the moment such a product comes on the market, I will be the first (and only?) person contacted! As long as its not the Event Horizon version, anyway.

Finding wife left a lengthy comment on Sam Neill Update: Dad Edition:

I had a wild skunk who lived in my house for about five years. He/she would come in the back porch cat door after a night of fooding. It would go behind the washing machine thread a way through an unfinished wall and into the water heater closet that opened into the bathroom. I would open the door each morning and say good morning, it would wake up and look at me. It would sleep most of the day there with no trouble.

Good story, Finding Wife! Your relationship with your skunk friend sounds heart warming and symbiotic. The skunk got a place to sleep “after a night of fooding”, and you got an adorable, if volatile companion, probably the first contact from the outside world you’d received in some years.

Sam Neill: Losing My Mind Edition also grabbed some readers’ interest (I’m telling you, spambots love their Sam Neill movies):

Thanks, Tutus! I agree that watching and sarcastically commenting on all Sam Neill movies would be much easier with a group of volunteers and an entire community behind me! Sometimes I get so tired of linking to Merlin II or showing this picture of Choppy McAxeFace:

J/k it never gets old

Click Here, I know you mean well, but this is kind of a backhanded compliment. What do you mean, “I cant consider youre not more fashionable”? I am HELLA fashionable, Click Here, have you seen my new hat?

Well, some people have. private museum tours in st.petersburg had this to say about it:

Don’t worry, private museum tours in st.petersburg. The gloriousness of my new hat makes me incomprehensible sometimes too.
