It Came From The Spam Box (#2)

I once again share some of my odd spam comments (posted verbatim)with you.

On a what I wore post,  The Petulant Kid:

“If some one wishes to be updated with latest technologies afterward he must be pay a visit this website and be up to date everyday. “

~Were we reading the same post? I am not tech writer, or reviewer.

“A fascinating discussion is worth comment. I believe that you should publish more about this subject matter, it might not be a taboo subject but usually people don’t discuss such issues. To the next! Best Wishes!”

~ The only “discussion” I had was that bad weather makes me sort of cranky. Hardly a deep and meaningful topic. At least they have they tried to seem courteous with “Best Wishes.”

“I was curious if you ever thought of changing the structure of your website? Its very well written: I love that youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or 2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?”

~Huh? *scratches head* Thanks so much for the needless unsolicited advice.

“It’s a pity you don’t have a donate button! I’d certainly donate to this excellent blog! I guess for now i’ll settle for book-marking and adding your RSS feed to my Google account. I look forward to brand new updates and will share this website with my Facebook group. Talk soon!”

~This one attempts to flatter but comes off as very odd. Why on earth would I have a donate button?

“Hi there, I found your blog by way of Google even as searching for a similar subject, your website came up, it appears good. I’ve bookmarked it in my google bookmarks. Hi There, simply changed into aware of you weblog via Google, and located that it is truly informative. I’m gonna watch out for brussels. I will appreciate when you proceed this in future. Many other folks will be benefited out of your writing. Cheers!”

~Holy run-on sentence Batman! This one is by far my favorite. It is not only composed with questionable grammar, its redundant too! The brussels part is the best. Might be a new catch phrase for me.

Comments From The Spam Box

Sometimes I get some odd, unrelated comments on some of my posts. (They all get sent to my spam box) They obviously do not read the posts, they just copy paste prewritten scripts.

I thought it might be fun to share some of the typo-riddled comments with you. Please enjoy!

On my Mayhem Monday post:

“It is thought by many and excessive sweating, according to the palms and armpits. hyperhidrosis can lead to less energy and poor health. Aluminium salts have been able to wear dress shields, triangles of water-resistant fabric pinned or sewn into their clothes. Sweaty palm is a normal human bodily function. It really is, everybody needs to cool you off at an article Know Sweat.” 

I didn't mention sweating, deodorant or anything relating to bodily functions.  ?????


On my Gift Ideas post someone wrote:

“Stunning story there. What happened after? Thanks!”

I didn't write any story…I just made a huge list of links to gift ideas at different price points.

A different comment on the same post:

“Link exchange is nothing else but is simply placing the other person’s webpage link on your page at a proper place and other person will also do same in favor of you.”

I am guessing that English is not their first language. Most likely they plugged their prewritten script into a translator and this is what came out.

I may share more in the future, if you folks like these.

Lazy Day

Finally got Bud to take a picture with us. Just had to have one of the cats sit behind the camera. Lol!


Sometimes I put too much pressure on myself to come up with a "cool" outfit for Wednesdays. The whole point is to get over my insecurities. Some days are better than others.

So today is casual. Simple comfy clothes, messy hair, and no make-up.

Arg...I am not a fan of my crooked smile.

Details:
Jacket ~ Macy's (Don't worry it was only $20!)
T-shirt ~ Hot Topic (Ages ago. Hey, its a Nirvana shirt)
Jeans ~ I am guessing Shopko?
Necklace ~ Pewter bullet is from Raspi's grandpa.
Socks ~ Smartwool 

Bellatrix's Little Sister

Hi folks,

I am still sick..and I don't look presentable... at... all...

Imagine Bellatrix Lestrange...in paint splattered yoga pants and an old sweatshirt.

Source (She looks much better than I feel!)

Raspi and I are still recovering from "The Crud"

I hope we are both better soon. 

Stay healthy!!!!

Ski Trip

We were able to borrow skis from Lynn and Ted. We skied around outside of the cow pasture.


Yes, I went cross-country skiing in a skirt. I wear skirts most of the time. The key is layers. I was wearing leggins under the skirt, but they suggested I wear wind pants too. I was toasty

Coat ~ J.C. Pennys
Skirt ~ Goodwill
Windpants ~ borrowed from Lynn
Trapper hat ~ Target (I am wearing it under the hood.)

Batty Old Aunt

 

I was going for the stiffness of old photos.

 

I guess I still had Circus on the brain. Vintage circus that is.

 

Bud didn't want to be in the picture. He was busy herding the cats.

 

Details:

Long sleeved top ~Target

Bodice ~ Renaissance Festival

Skirt ~ The Goodwill

Boots ~ Walmart (Hard to see)

Choker ~ Made by Spacemansteve of  Catbones (Its hand embroidered velvet ribbon.)

Don't be afraid to look different! I look like someone's batty old aunt...wait...I AM someone's batty aunt! Ha ha!
Wear your Renaissance gear...mix it in with other stuff!Fashion is supposed to be fun, not drudgery. Besides rules are made to be broken.

Ringmaster*

Welcome to my circus. 

I thought I would try a goofy pose. (Can't take things too seriously.)

 

 

I would wear this whole outfit except the hat. The Top hat is too big for me, but I still love it.

 

Cici was 2 seconds away from licking my face.

 

Buddy decided not to be in the photo. He was busy playing with his toys. : )

Details:
Vintage Top Hat ~ The Goodwill
Head band ~ Icing (I am using it as a hat band)
Velvet Jacket ~ The Goodwill
OP T-shirt ~ The Goodwill
Corduroys ~ TJ Maxx
Heels ~ Payless
Eye makeup ~ ELF
Lipstick ~ Palladio

*I came up with the outfit idea because of a joke with Spacemansteve.

Old Is Gold

Cool stuff doesn't always have to be new.

All of my clothes today have been with me a looong time.

I thought I would go with a sort-of punky look.

Reminds me of my highschool days.

I will be so sad when those jeans finally bite the dust.

I was having a bad hair day. I decided to just go with it.

 Rue wanted a picture take with me. He has been super cuddly lately. Aww!

Purple tank top ~ ???
Jeans ~ Shopko (a million years ago! They are practically disintegrating. The more shredded they get, the more I love them!)
Tights ~ Target
Hoodie ~ Target (I added the skull patches, and the heart patch, which is hard to see)
Boots ~ The Goodwill*
Necklace chain ~ hardware store
Charms on necklace ~ Gift from Mum, and Raspi (They are a motorcycle, a bullet, and a snake)

*If you have been a thrift-er for awhile you sort of get a sixth sense about shopping. Suddenly you get the idea to hit up a store you have been to in a while. Then BAM! Amazing finds!

Years ago, I had this crazy desire for odd cowboy boots, bordering on obsession. I decided to go to a local thrift store, but was on auto-pilot while driving. Instead I found myself at the good will. I walked in and headed straight to the shoes. There were my crazy vintage cowboy boots!

 

Heart of Glass

After my haircut today, my hair had a 70's vibe. Serious face, blah!

Sort of flippy. (I had her cut a few inches off, it was getting too snarly)

 

See I would have fit right in! Ha!

Puppy love!

Bud is super focused on the toy. Meanwhile Cici is curious about my necklaces.

 

Details:

Shawl ~ Blanket from garage sale
Wrap shirt ~ From Mum
Jeans ~ Shopko (I think?)
Belt ~ Stolen from Raspi (Thanks honey!)
Shoes ~ Yonkers (Ages ago)
Necklaces ~ Grandma J. (Miss you!)

Yes, I have such a glamorous life, driving Rasputin's car to an oil change, mowing the lawn,and schlepping the dogs to the vet. (Ha ha ha!) I can't even take a picture of myself with out the dogs, or I feel like a weirdo!

I thought I might give "What I wore" posts a try. Don't worry I don't take myself too seriously.*
