SPam of thE Week! Week Continues!

SPEW #1 comes from frequent spammer, 0nline Casin0. Apparantly, he really doesn’t like grapes filmed on fish shaped plates.

“It’s episodes like this that convinced me that there is no big white-haired guy in the sky looking out for his peeps. If he/she is out there, he/she doesn’t give a shit.”

Indeed… what kind of a supreme being would allow His creation this kind of cruel latitude?

The True Religion Outlet, which sounds like some 80’s synth band, posts:

“First come, first served.First impressions are half the battle.”

First off, knowing is half the battle, everyone knows that. Firster, this could actually be lyrics from a crappy 80’s band. Firstest,  are you saying that all that matters is being first in line?

Finally, we have Webcam Girl (you can imagine the type of site she’s pitching), she wants to comment on my envious career lines post.

“The loveseat was a torn and tattered light blue leather material. Often with thread in the same color as the foundation fabric.”

As the author of a popular website, I can appreciate well written prose. This spam, however, doesn’t qualify.

SPam of thE Week! Week Continues

Our first post comes from “Rihanna Is The Only Girl In The World”. Seriously, that’s their name. Well, they wanted to comment on the aPlateOfGrapes exclusive story regarding monkeys stealing from prison guards.

“Hrmm that was weird, my comment got eaten. What I wanted to say was get two plants, and set both of them in two different locations. One plant should be put in a box with a light so it can grow. The other plant should be put in a dark box so it will not grow.”

First off, if there was a previous comment, it was spam and got deleted. Second, have you moved on to torturing small woodland creatures or pets? ‘Cause it sounds like you’re on the fast track.

Next we have Christy. She likes Popsicles. Also, you may note that Christy sounds kind of… manly.

“Magnificent goods from you, man. I’ve understand your stuff previous to and you’re just too magnificent. I actually like what you’ve acquired here. You make it enjoyable and you still care for to keep it sensible. I cant wait to read much more from you. This is actually a great web site.”

Thanks, I’m often told that my “goods” and “stuff” are magnificent. Also, I get the gist that you were a frequent visitor to my previous website. For those of you that remember, my last site was around about 12-15 years ago or so. It was just a flaming pumpkin. No, not that kind of flaming. It was just on fire. It’s also worth noting, I didn’t “acquire” the site, I created it from scratch. Amazingly, the domain name was available for purchase.

Lastly, we have HD video. He likes The Sea Captain.

“omg awsome looking game”

and followed that up by saying:

“do want more dlc”

What am I, BioWare? And, although there is a game about dropping grapes onto plates, I can’t confirm a The Sea Captain game is in development by aPlateOfGrapes or one of our divisions. If there is, I’ll be sure there’s lots of DLC… for a price, of course.

BREAKING News!!! Chicken Shiv’s Man Over Failure to Pay Gambling Debts

Turns out you should never cross this guy:

 

He’ll cut ya.

 

We all know chickens cross roads, but you best not cross chickens. Turns out “A California man attending a cockfight has died after being stabbed in the leg by a bird that had a knife attached to its own limb.” That’s a genuine quote from an actual news source. What isn’t so clear from the article is motive. Our sources say the man lost considerable amounts of coin in previous cock fights and the cock of the walk was sending a message to other deadbeats.

Or maybe he’s trying to get a Steam achievement. Doesn’t look like the shivee will be respawning any time soon, so tough break there Mr. Chicken.

Maybe I’m editorializing here, but you can check out the story here.

Freedom Loving

As you are well aware, there’s a bit of unrest in Egypt right now. Their dictator government, as an act of dickitude, shut off their internet. Now Egyptians, like all freedom loving people, love aPlateOfGrapes. In fact, they love it so much, site traffic from Egypt has surged over 99% since all the shenanigans began (according to Google Analytics). Granted, all of the new traffic has come not from Cairo, where all the turmoil is, but from Alexandria (yes, that Alexandria. There are so many of them because this guy didn’t have much of an imagination…. and he had a bit of an ego.).
