Does anybody else get spam comments on their blogs?

I followed the links in the spam I've been getting and it led me to a company called Holy Grail of Advertising. Fucking annoying bullshit. Anyway, if anybody else is pissed off about this, you can write them at

ClientCare@HolyGrailofAdvertising.com

and give them a big fuck off.

lol the strange contortions of the english language that spammers use to get around spam filters have created some of the more interesting examples of post-modern deconstructed language poetry. someone should archive this shit so mankind can puzzle at it in future generations.

isn't the net one big archive of this kind of stuff? it is startling the degree to which language has mututed on the net. imagine where it'll be at after another decade.
