Spamalot
If you have a WordPress blog and you've been wondering why you haven't heard anything from me lately, there's a very good reason for that.
I hate you.
No, not really. The truth is, your blog hates me. I've been trapped in spam filters all over the interweb. Apparently, you all need to hear about the latest in ED pharmacology, but my insightful, hilarious comments are meaningless drivel.
I'm not really sure what's sparked this suddenly loathing WordPress has for me; I haven't made any changes to my comment information. My best guess is that it's just a side benefit from my incredibly industrious scraper. Many of you have been pinged by them as they've scooped and reposted without removing the links. In fact, that's how I found out about them (Thanks, Karen!). Irritating enough to have been scraped in the first place, but turning me into spam in the process is just insult to injury.
It's enough to make a girl think about turning vegetarian. Although, I guess the whole point of spam is that there's not a lot of meat to it to begin with, eh?

Does that make up for me laughing in your face regarding that stupid effing meme?
:P
How do you find out about these scrapers?
Well, if it's any consolation to you, I do generally look through my spam before deleting it. Although I confess, I have once or twice just dumped it all when it got over 500 in a single day.
