Welcome to this edition of Spam Fishing, where we find amusing phrases in this blog’s endless spam comments and make snarky comments about them. We would also like to take this opportunity to complain about all of the “online poker” spam. Spammers, your spam isn’t just annoying, it is also boring. May rubber chickens collide with your head soon.

Right, then. On with the snarky comments.

“fortunes paraphrasing” (So…basically the fortunes in fortune cookies?)

“dropout royalty men” (Would that be men that couldn’t make it through royalty high school? Is there a vocational school for royalty?)

“Basic curable Arnold?” (Nope. We’re pretty sure that Arnold is incurable.)

“Pomeranian buoyancy” (Would that be the scale for dog fluffiness?)

“Euclid pouts fleeing” (Poor Euclid.)

“Erik:arm thunderers” (You hear that Erik? Your new vocation is to arm thunderers.)

“seismology bear” (The scariest of the Care Bears. Also known as “Earthquake Bringer.”)

“need cloudburst?” (Yes, actually. It’s rather dry around here.)

Spam Fishing

Welcome to the next installment of Spam Fishing, where we go through all of that annoying Spam that we receive and find amusing combinations of words.

Let’s see what we found…

“cricket download free” (Crickets are supposed to be lucky, right? Hey! Free luck! And you don’t even have to go to the store to get it.)

“presenter penitent squawk” (So…that presenter was so ashamed that he couldn’t even talk?)

“congresswomen Tokyo paradox” (Do you think that congresswoman has been messing around with time travel? Better make sure that she doesn’t go meeting herself in Tokyo. It’d be Akira all over again.)

“I am sure the website will become a internet legend” (Well…we certainly hope so. Thanks for the vote of confidence Mr. Spammer.)

“recreational pseudo checklist” (How would you make a pseudo checklist? Would that be one of those To Do lists that you never finish anything on?)

“mediating lad decrypting Gogh?” (Did Van Gogh leave behind a code that I’m not aware of? Well…this lad over here is working on it in a break in the mediation, apparently.)

“Februaries deplore lesson breakaway Tolley” (Well, then, we hope that Kevin stayed on task all of last month.)

“Spuds explosions” (Look out! Potato bombs!)

“opaque persistent celebrations” (The kind of party that keeps going when the lights go out.)

Spam Fishing

Welcome to this week’s Spam Fishing Post. Let’s see what we found, shall we?

“custom pinhead bleach nourishes” (As opposed to that normal bleach that would kill you?)

“retranslated hordes” (The initial horde translation was incorrect, apparently. I imagine that Genghis Khan was not best pleased.)

“fancy a flutter” (Um…sure. Do you have a spare pair of wings?)

“immoral solar banana” (Look out! That banana is naughty…and solar powered. *snicker*)

“unforeseen magazines bike ants” (Are there enough Bike Ants to warrant a whole magazine dedicated to that?)

“armed indiscreet complementers” (They tell your grandmother that she’s really sexy, and you can’t say anything…’cause they have weapons.)

Hello and welcome to this week’s version of Spam Fishing. We’ve caught quite the crop of Spam recently, so we hope that you enjoy all of the randomness and snarky comments about them.

Ready?

A Spot of Spam Fishing:

“twittered shampoo unfolds” (I had no idea that there was a shampoo bottle with a Twitter account, much less one that was willing to unfold its mind to the world.)

“minimally handling brimstone” (Well…you wouldn’t want to spend too much time handling brimstone, would you?)

“defenestrated Vietnam” (Um…how exactly did you get Vietnam out of that window?)

“thermosphere ants” (How did ants get that high up in the atmosphere? Did they hitch a ride on the shuttle?)

“delicatessen pipelines” (So…if someone disrupted the delicatessen pipelines would we have a lunchmeat shortage?)

“Perseid chefs” (Would that be chefs who live on meteors or chefs who cook meteors?)

“interviewed includes:township,woofers heritage” (That sounds like a lot of interviewing. I wonder where they found the dog historians.)

“thing honorarium” (Good to know that Thing got paid for his work on the Addams Family.)

“crafty troll leeches” (Better look out for those crafty troll leeches. Eek!)

“bedsprings exploding?” (Do I want to know? Can you imagine that recall announcement?)

Spam Fishing

Welcome to this week’s edition of Spam Fishing, in which we sift through the spam posts on this blog for amusing combinations of words…and then make snarky comments about them. We like to call this “Spam Fishing.” Enjoy!

“demoralizing sureties skit” (If it’s so demoralizing, should we even be doing this skit?)

“pharmacy arrest Canadian” (He’s not just any Canadian. He’s the pharmacy arrest Canadian. I expect that he’s a member of the RCMP.)

“captivating chalice” (Why thank you. I quite like it myself.)

“Faustus programmers” (So…what? They made a deal that they shouldn’t have to reach their deadline?)

“Catalonia distinctly trying!” (Er…Glad to hear it.)

“assassinating fury paperback” (Look out! Rogue paperback! And it looks distinctly peeved to me.)

“patter: smartness parted” (I’ve never really thought of patter like that. Is the smartess parted like hair?)

“flourish wholesaler” (What sort of flourishes are you selling?)

Spam Fishing

It’s been really cold here in the Silliness Lair lately, so this week’s version of Spam Fishing is more like Spam Icefishing. *Brrrrr*

“degenerating Freudians” (That would make them..what? Freud himself? People who talk about their mothers all day?)

“binary porpoise respectably” (I don’t know about those two porpoises. Maybe it’s just their haircuts, but they sure don’t look respectable.)

“irreversibility impairing Epstein” (Poor Epstein. It sounds like he isn’t going to be the next 6 Million Dollar Man.)

“Dixon normal bugging discriminated hijack” (So…from the sound of it, Dixon being normal is really annoying that hijack team that has been discriminated against. Okaaaaay…)

“monogram Midwesterner curious” (I think that this one needs a comma between the second and third words. It’s quite…curious.)

“genuine Garcia fondles” (As opposed to those fake Garcia fondles?)

“annotate shortsighted ants” (…but you would have to write really small.)

“Belgians oscilloscopes arrive” (Where should we put them?)

“zodiac mnemonics” (That might actually be handy. Anyone have a suggestion?)

“Unix counterfeiting!” (How do you know that your UNIX is counterfeit?)

Hello and welcome to another round of Spam Fishing. This is where we take the opportunity to look through our spam filter to find interesting combinations of words in the spam, and generally make snarky comments about them. Ready? Here we go!

In among the dead leaves this week we found:

“nearsighted verandas obstruct tassel” (Maybe getting them some spectacles would help?)

“beards prime exposers” (Don’t beards mostly cover rather than expose? Or are they saying that beards get exposers ready to..expose?)

“styles beers unpleasant” (Well, we’d better avoid that brand, then.)

“supergroup superscript unseen” (This sounds like a movie biopic about a popular musical group.)

“saddlebag intolerance nibbles” (So…snacks that won’t make you fat? Or that help you lose weight?)

“bequeath babbles shrewdly” (Be careful to whom you give your long-winded advice.)

And that’s the best of the spam from this week. Stay tuned for another edition next week.

Spam Fishing

Have you ever paused to really look at the spam in your filter? (Okay, now I have to try to erase the image of spam in a pool filter from my mind.) Seriously, though, have you? Sometimes those spam comments contain some of the weirdest and most amusing combinations of words. So, today we are trying out a new thing here in the Lair of Silliness.

We’re going fishing for spam. Let’s see what we can come up with.

An Experiment in Spam:

“sidearm,dismiss demagnify dictum seduced grievance” (What exactly is a seduced grievance, and what does a sidearm have to do with it?)

“thumb mingling souls” (A new form of thumb wrestling?)

“Carolina investigated washing” (They take clothing seriously there, we gather.)

“affiliation avoidably lotion conservationists” (So…you can choose to not affiliate yourself with people who like to conserve lotion?)

“paraphrasing easiness malfunctions” (It sounds like that Easy Button has been having problems, but they’re keeping the reports short.)

“postal vegetarians treatise” (Dude! Don’t piss off those vegetarians. They’ll go postal. I’ve written a paper about it.)

“onwards Alice speck steamed anywhere” (Ah yes. Good old Alice Speck. I hear that she’s quite the traveler.)

And we’ll end with…

“laudable nanoprogramming:oregano reconnected lookers” (They did such a great job with their nanoprogramming, didn’t they? Yes indeed. Please pass the Oregano.)
