Spam And Comments

Lately I’ve been noticing more innocent comments being tagged as spam in the spam filter queue. This site, like most blogs, recieves a heady amount of spam attacks because the comments are open. As a result, comments that should automatically appear are being lost due to the fact that I don’t read the spam queue. Today it wasn’t too bad so I did glance through the spam queue, caught a couple of comments and moved them over. But then I sort of was amazed at what some of the spam was targeting.

For instance, these were a series of links:

porn lesbian dildo
acrotomophiles porn
gay porn from dawin
myamar porn
asian micromedia flash porn
kiddnaped forced porn
scooby doo porn cartoon access
lod milf porn

Then there’s the somewhat poetic dictionary spam, where they take random sentences from literature or news articles and mash them together.

Mathilda opened her mouth and the truck passed inspections Honey smiled brightly at her from beside the disputed curtains “I’m only fourteen it’s not like I can get a licence” Hardening with your intimate relationships? They have never seen such an impressive offer!!

What is interesting is that the spam is almost 80% porn, 15% pharmaceutical related, and 5% miscellaneous.  But what’s missing, is the spam of yesteryear, the offers to refinance my mortgage, no money down real estate deals and the various financial scams. It must be a really tough economy out there. I’m just surprised that I haven’t seen the cheap or free gas spam, drill oil in your backyard, or get extra MPGs if you buy this snake oil variety of spam.

Anyways, if you post a comment and it does not immediately appear, shoot me an email, so I can go fish it out.

    All this talk about spam/eggs/bacon/sausage/spam/spam reminds me of an old Monty Python bit.
