Spammers! Come here and I’ll cut you
I suppose I had to crack someday. For the last week, since I wrote "My cat is my alarm clock," I've been getting spammers trying to insert their web sites for stupid cat-related products. For three days, I've been opening my mail and seeing "You have just received a comment" and cringed. Go in, remove the spam, leave, come back and find it again.
Finally, I figured out how to close comments to that entry.
Now, some idiot from "www.Bridesmaiddressesunder100.com" has decided that my account of the burning of London in 1666 is the ideal location for a bit of spam.
So I edited it a little:
Wow, interesting reading, thank you for sharing. Just by looking at those amazing pictures it gives you a breif inisght to that historic night. By the way, did you know http://www.bridgesmaiddressesunder100.com is a scam? It is! We rip people off all the time! Bridesmaid Dresses Under $100 spams sites like this one because we have a little bit of money to hire monkeys such as me to spread our crap all over the Internet. So don't forget, Bridesmaid Dresses Under $100 wants to rip you off! So come and get screwed today!I'll probably go back and remove it, because it wouldn't do, but I think I'll leave this up long enough for Google to stick it in their cache.
Because I don't know what else to do, short of cutting off comments entirely, but damn I had enough! I want to cut this site's head off and put it on a stick.
