Burning Reveal
Announcing Pass the Spam
Let’s face it spam comments are just one of those things bloggers must put up with. Hopefully you are like me and most of it winds up in a special spam folder and not actually posted on your blog.
Because an occasional real comment gets stuck there I always take the time to scan through before consigning them all to virtual deletion. It always seems that there are one or two that make me laugh and I recently started sharing them with Grandma who always appreciates a good laugh.
Since we have such fun sharing and mocking our spam I thought it would be fun to start a little meme honoring the best of our spam gems.
The rules are simple:
- Choose your favorite spam comment of the week. I started a document holding all the gems I find.
- Strip the spam of any links or urls – we’re not trying to generate any business for them.
- Post it on your blog.
- Stop by Calico Contemplations every Tuesday and add your post link to the linky so we can all get a chuckle.
Don’t be afraid to share the surrounding circumstances of the spam, sometimes that’s the best part. One of my favs congratulates me on my excellent writing for a Wordless Wednesday. I look forward to seeing what you have to share, now on to more succinct matters…
Word of the Week: practice
The old school was slated for burn practice, everyone was nervous. Many things were buried there; none of them needed revealing. ~ 128
Secrets from the past are too tempting to go up in smoke!
Pooch’s last post … The Secret Memoirs of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis
Good idea to burn the old secrets! But I would be nervous too; who knows what the secrets might take with them?
Sonia Lal’s last post … Teaser Tuesday: Canyons of Night
Ooh, creepy! Perhaps some hated substitute teacher was buried there. I only mention substitute teacher because I was a sometimes disliked one. I can’t really say that I was hated, but the high school kids didn’t always like the fact that I insisted that they do the assigned work.
Pat’s last post … Fruit of the vines and trees
Wonder what the secrets were that need a wee bit og good old burning… A good tale this.
Now I am looking at the clouds over the old school. Is that the last hope, or burnt it would be?
Seasons’s last post … Succinctly yours: Practice
Holy smoke! What a cool and creepy this week’s Succintly Yours take!
SparkleFarkle’s last post … Bat Scratch Fever
Wow-this has so much packed into the 140 constraints. Way to go!
Susan’s last post … My birthday boys (and Succinctly Yours!)
Sorry, C.C. That was the wrong link I left.

Hi C.C. ~~ Burn the secrets, a good idea!

Jim’s last post … One Single Impression: Weed
Looks like you have two burning reveals – your microfiction and the unveiling of your new meme!
Grandma’s Goulash’s last post … We Who Laugh Last
Nice spooky story. Now I’m wondering what is hidden under the floorboards!
Found just a small typo for you ” it made everyone was nervous. ” I think either the ‘it made’ or’ was’ needs to be removed.
Helen’s last post … A mind of her own – Monday Drabble (a story in 100 words)
Thanks for catching that Helen, it’s obvious my mind was more befuddled than I thought when I posted this.
