Blog Comments
Ok listen.
Just you and I talking here. Nobody else.
I spend so much god-damned time filtering blog spam I've decided to disable comments entirely.
I know disabling comments is the last refuge of scoundrels, blog spammers, and other n'er do wells, but I just can't take the endless bombardment of viagra spam, pseudo-blog poetry and assorted other crap. I also know that there's a wide variety of technical solutions to this problem, all of which I'm too lazy to investigate after long days blogging about technology and tackling life's assorted other minutiae.
Those who like what I post can e-mail me. It's not particularly confusing to do so.
All the rest of the Internet spam omni-verse can sod off in a perpetual hell where the only intellectual and spiritual nutrient they receive is diet Pepsi, Fox News and church newsletters. Delivered intravenously.
As for those who've commented here over the year and felt annoyed that I ignored you, please take some refuge in the fact I was mired in blog-spam feces, and meant no ill will.
