Serving You Spam Since 2007

My girlfriend called me up today and said, “Jesus! You’ve only been blogging for a week and you’ve already violated the Terms of Services?! That’s seriously got to be a record for you!”
I made my WTF face and said, “What on earth are you talking about?!” (Only because I was at work. If I weren’t at work I would have actually said WTF. But contrary to popular belief, I do have an internal censor)
“Your blog. The link is blocked and it says you’ve violated the TOS.”
I pulled up the page, and sure enough – I’ve been BANNED!

I’m thinking: She’s right! This is a record for me. Usually it takes at least 2 weeks for me to piss someone off to the point that I’m banned, but I managed to get banned in my first week of blogging. Nice one!

So I log in and guess what, boys and girls? I’ve been reported as a spammer!!!
Now – the irony of my spammer status is not totally lost on me, since only about 10 people even know my blog exists.
I know it’s not high prose or anything, but spam?!

This (see below) is Spam:


I’ve never even eaten Spam, much less dished it out to someone else. Though someone once told me that warm spam and mayonnaise sandwiches were rather tasty.
No thanks! I don’t eat canned meat.
I would certainly never serve up anything to you that I wouldn’t eat myself.
I’m not that kinda girl.

I just want you to know, that my blog is a completely spam-free zone. Completely free of any canned meat. It’s been verified to be certifiably Spam-free by Blogger. I know you were worried.

But now I’ve totally hosed myself by putting spam in my previously spam-free zone. So I guess you could say now I’m a spammer.
Now I’m screwed! G’head, report me!

Well…I suppose if I’m banned again next week, you’ll know that it was the canned Spam that did me in.
