I hate to brag, but I have a large group of adoring fans who are Russian factory workers. From what I gather, they work day and night producing the luncheon meat loved by comedians worldwide. WordPress created a special folder for their e-mails, even though it’s misspelled. Remember, WordPress, when pork products meet in a can, you have to capitalize all of the letters.
Their words of admiration and encouragement fill my “spam” folder, spurring me on to garner even more of their praise. I imagine them tirelessly tinning tiny piggy tidbits, talking about their favorite TV show “Dancing with the Tsars” and their favorite blog: mine.
Ivan: Have you do got read yearstricken? I discovered her web site unintentionally, and I’m surprised why this accident did not took place earlier.
Boris: Ivan, the terrible way you speak English! But, yes, her blog is like big accident. She make it appear really easy together with her presentation however I find the post Why I don’t call myself a writer: part one to be actually something that I think I’d never understand.
Supervisor: Comrades! Work and quit stallin’.
Ivan: We are not stallin’, Joseph.
Boris: It sort of feels too complex and extremely extensive for me. I am looking forward to her next post, I will try to get the dangle of it!
Ivan: Oh, yes, to get the dangle of yearstricken is simply difficult.
Ivan: Fortunate me I discovered her web site unintentionally.
Boris: Her writing article, I find very useful information particularly the ultimate part. I maintain such info a lot.
Ivan: Its like she learn my thoughts! She appear to know so much about this, such as she wrote the e-book in it or something. I feel that she simply could do with a few % to pressure the message house a little bit, however instead of that, she has wonderful blog. An excellent read. I’ll certainly be back.
Supervisor: Comrades! Work or I simply pressure the message house a little bit on you! I could do have transfer you to factory of Siberia, simply place of nuclear winter.

Yes, I have encountered this phenomenon on my blog as well. You should see my post on stupid search terms that have found my blog.
I enjoy reading my spam; it makes me feel loved. From reading your post of search terms, I can see that there are many paths to your blog.
Brilliant! (But I think some of your Russian fans are also visiting me….)
Some of their comments almost rival your students’ comments. 🙂
Yes, yearstricken… isn’t it wonderful to listen to these fans gush their admiration while offering a bit of advice her and there because they love us so much. For me, discovering them was a great relief, primarily because I mis-identified them as robots, not realizing that they were our Russian comrades. Having moved from dismay to deep depression after a robot beat our greatest masters in chess, I’ll admit it cheered me up to see them making little mistakes in grammar in their notes to us. Ah, so they’re not invincible, I whispered to myself, hoping that google wasn’t listening. Well, if they’re Russians, shame on me for belittling them. Maybe I should start answering all their missives.
I have checked the IP addresses of many of the emails, so I know they are originating from Russia. I’m sure that their emails are so endearing because they are using Google translate. I enjoy reading the emails, but I would never respond.
Hilarious! Thanks for the laugh. Needed that today.
So happy it made you laugh.
I don’t mean to question the fidelity of your fans, but I think some of them have been stepping over to my blog. And some of their proposals are anything but modest. I guess sqeezing pig bits all day makes the mind wander.
Gads, are they cheating on me?! So far they have simply adored me and not said anything untoward.
What a coincidence — those Russian fans are visiting me too! They are so generous in sharing their pork products without stallin’.
I’m starting to feel just a tiny bit hurt that they’ve been adoring other blogs besides mine. Who knew?
LOL I love this! Brilliant:)
Thanks for reading, Jennie.
LOL as usual. Where did your wonderful sense of humor come from?
I’m glad you liked this. Humor is so subjective; I’ve always been attracted to nonsense.
I am devastated to read that MY Russian fans are also visiting other blogs.
Yours? You are breaking my heart, woman.
Sometimes I just throw in the tag “China” to up my visits. I’ll have to switch to “Russia”.
Hmm. I’ll have to try that some time. 🙂
Oh! So funny! I can’t help but read and laugh at some of the spam comments I get. Loved your take on it – wonderful as always.
I like reading the spam as well.
I tried including skinny jeans to up my google hits. Maybe I should change it to Russia although some of these seem awful familiar!
You must add the names of famous people and/or post pictures of them even though they have no connection with your post. I’ve seen it elsewhere and it works.
For gooseness sakes, how your mind works! Holy smokes — you could write for a pretty famous TV show or something — they would PAY you! I’m so serious! And I am laughing out loud! 😀
You are a dear. Thank you, and I’m glad you liked it.
I always wondered where these folks come from. It makes perfect sense now.
I think it explains the canned responses we all get from spammers. I like more variety and somehow miss my friends in Nigeria who used to offer me the opportunity to deposit millions of dollars into my bank account.
I have a big fan too! It’s my attic, and it cools the whole house!
I don’t think it’s Russian though…
Are you sure it’s not rushing around in circles?
