How Come #4

There are two anonymous comments that showed up after my most recent post. They are pointless junk and have no reason to be there.

This raises the question of why!

It is incomprehensible to me why anyone would spend time writing a bunch of gobbledygook and sending it to total strangers for absolutely no reason! What's the payoff? What is the fun in that?

I suppose I'm making the mistake of trying to approach this in a rational manner. I am making the false assumption that those jerks are rational human beings.

More likely, they're simply acting out their anti-social tendencies in a milder manner than those who shoot down strangers in public places.

All things considered, I guess anonymous spamming isn't that awful after all!

I've never worked out what's going on with anonymous spam either...

Hi there from another Sparrow! Thanks for your comment on my site. Can you send me your email address to wpnz@swissmail.org. I will then type out the recipe for you. It is in the book "Simply Israel" by T Gila Levine - well worth buying as all the recipes in it are healthy AND they work:-)

Seeing spam simply reminds me of the SPAM Fritters that I used to love when I was a meat-eating kidling! I seem to remember that they even got served up as school meals at one of the institutions I was sentenced to attend twixt the ages of 0 and 18!

p.s. I suspect that the two daft el-commentinos you received were delivered by some spotty adolescent's little roving robot. Play, like nostalgia, isn't what it used to be ...

yes I think these are done by cyber robots, must be they are strange wordings, some folks have a lot of time on their hands to write these things and what the benefit of them is, I too often wonder. Hope you're having a good one.

Definitely spambots. No purpose except to be annoying, I think... Because the can! It works.

As for The Owl Wood's SPAM Fritters, I think I might be ill!

Linda said...

I don't know why people do that. I am really glad to be back and to be able to come and visit you once again. Thank you so much for your kindness and well wishes during my absence and illness.

I never get that either.

Geez, people.

Get a life.

It's weird that someone would want to waste time doing that. Why say something if you have nothing to say?
