Pass the Spam #7

Pass the Spam Meme

It’s been a slow week spam wise, but I’m sure I’ll find something in the bin or my saved file. How about you, any good spam on your blog, email, or chat?

The rules are simple:

  1. Choose your favorite spam comment(s) of the week. **I started a document holding all the gems I find.**
  2. Strip the spam of any links or urls. **We’re not trying to generate any business for them.**
  3. Post it on your blog. Don’t be afraid to share the surrounding context of the spam, sometimes that’s the best part. **A link back to Calico Contemplations or inclusion of the Pass the Spam button (available on sidebar) is appreciated.**
  4. Stop by Calico Contemplations every Tuesday after 12:01am and add your post link to the linky so we can all get a chuckle.

Keyword Collection

This week’s spam offering came in response to several different posts I’ve written in the last couple of weeks. Either this is a riddle with a million dollar prize at the end or the author is hoping their impressive collection of key words will confuse my filter and allow their link to be posted.

Standard Cause,importance box because transfer debt failure smile out collect consequence Pass the Spamthank tradition call magazine considerable institute allow why trouble soldier store student declare since signal requirement vital appropriate outcome particularly creation somewhat past forward proposal publication expenditure conclude truth weekend last event word beginning record proportion mental fair summer at meeting bar travel purpose thank lie neither the real commission either violence code reasonable emphasis need close may response touch teacher while context writer standard expensive acid turn media construction himself party high pension gas safe variation proper

What do you think?

No spammers were harmed in the making of this meme. What a shame!
