Not only are the spammers coming after you in blog comments as well as through your email, but now they're telling jokes!
I was cleaning out the spam comments on my blog when I came across one that I actually enjoyed – unlike the linkfarm/gobbledygook/viagra ads of most blog comment spam, this one contained a joke that was not half bad:
Moishe had been single for a long time. One day, he excitedly tells his mother that he’s fallen in love at last and he is going to get married. She is obviously overjoyed.
Moishe then tells his mother, “Just for fun, Mum, I’m going to bring over 3 women and you try and guess which one I’m going to marry.”
His mother agrees.
The next day, Moishe brings 3 beautiful women into the house and sits them down on the couch and they all chat for a while. Then Moishe turns to his mother and says, “Okay, Mum. Guess which one I’m going to marry?”
She immediately replies, “The redhead in the middle.”
“That’s amazing, Mum. You’re right. How did you know?”
“I don’t like her.”
Obviously these kind of comments still aren't going to make it onto my blog, but if the spammers can keep me laughing while I delete their comments, so much the better!

Geez, that's funnier than the "humor" people who I know forward to me.

That is pretty good. I really do get depressed though when the spam-comments begin to outnumber the real comments on my posts!

That's funny. Speaking of spam comments, it's sad to see spam comments on Team Vox's blog. It really sets a bad example for their product's ability (or lack thereof) to tackle spammers.

It really sets a bad example for their product's ability (or lack
thereof) to tackle spammers.Yes, it does. That, and shows how much the SA folks really don't care about Vox, since they don't even bother to delete spam from the blog that is the representative face of the service.
