We are days away from the first ever Aussie Bloggers Conference and I am crazy busy trying to meet my freelance deadlines, pack a week’s worth of clothes into a carry-on bag, shave my legs and read everyone’s blogs before I meet them face-to-face. So, this week I’ve written a small post, a dedication of sorts. My post this week is in recognition of all the spambots which love to leave comments, but unfortunately will not be able to attend the upcoming festivities. Lucky, because imagine how quickly they’d clean out the bar!
For some unknown reason the spambots have not graced bigwords, but they do like to visit archiefive, my husband’s photography blog. Here are my favourite comments, from these automated selling machines, for your reading pleasure:
Let’s start with this gem – “how goes it, regal blog on fatlike loss. parallel helped . May i use it to my website”
This one got a little confused – “Thank you very much for contributing a great comment!”
And here is my favourite – “Wow, fantabulous post my fat friend.”
Have you got any funny spambot comments?
PS: If you are attending the conference, I look forward to meeting you very soon. I’ll be the one dancing, with my bag at my feet and a gin bottle in my hand.
Dickheads. I effing HATE spambots!
Fantabulous post my fat friend…yep, that would be my favourite as well. Funny funny funny.

Are you sure these aren’t just examples of esperanto…?
I shall be the one next to you with a gin in my hand and some very outdated dance moves.
As for spam, I love it! Well, I love laughing as I read then delete it!
See you in three sleeps!

Yes!
1. I only wish I had as half as many daily new Tweeps as Bot Lovers. These I delete asap.
2. There was only one exception which I loved: my first ever bot, was FartBot. I sent a tweet out saying “I hugged my girl so hard, she farted on my leg”. Seconds later I got a retweet response, with a pic of a bent over robot with a little fart cloud coming out of his rear. It said “FartBot approves”. I got a huge laugh out of it but have not seen my windy little friend since. 🙁
Enjoy the Conf!
Oh I get heaps of funny ones, but the worst ones are the keyword searches that lead people to my blog. One of the weirder ones is – show us your growler (whatever that means!) freeballing and dirty wife.
Love it. I get these kinds of comments – they always leave me with a smile on my face!
Have fun at the conference – I can’t go this year 🙁
I hope all you bloggy girls will post about this conference and what went on, My blog is a mere 3 days old so maybe one day i will join the leigions of fantastic writers i admire at a conference (ahh hopes and dreams).
I just love reading blogs… I dont buy magazines anymore i prefer to entertain this way!
those comments above were fairly random… loved the one calling you fat wtf?
Oh, that is definitely my favourite too. Fantabulous!
Yeah, I sent my Chinese spammer your way.
Enjoy.

Oh my goodness I nearly wet myself with laughter at:
“Wow, fantabulous post my fat friend.”
That is hilarious.
I’m kind of annoyed that I don’t receive spam bots. You know you’ve made it when you are visited by the bots 😉
It was lovely to meet you yesterday 🙂
LOL, that did make me chuckle. I don’t ever get any spam ‘cept the odd appearance from the Tena Lady but I don’t count that. My OH’s blog however just gets piles of it, I do get extremely pissed off having to wade through it all in case I miss a genuine comment somewhere.
Oh, did I get to meet you, I don’t think I did – bugger – too many people and not enough time. The Conference was fabulous and maybe next year we will indeed meet. xxx
Yeah, I sent my Chinese spammer your way.
Enjoy.
