Mark Madsen was a little wired up on caffeine and throwing out some great one liners the other day in a comment.  He recommended I come up with a comment spam seal that could be put on comments and then go ahead and publish them.

I had to laugh at first then thought about how we often take things way to serious and how much fun it might be to have just such a seal we could all use to edit comments that are clearly spam in nature.

I usually just send them to askimet and be done with it.  Sometimes it is obvious it is comment spam.  You know they didn’t read the post.  They fill the comment with links to themselves or a product they are pitching, etc.

There are others that do seem to have something to contribute then polute the comment with a pitch.

I came up with the little version of the graphic I created for a post about comment spam and included it in my response to Mark.  Last night, in the middle of the night I had the idea to write this post and provide a link to the image so you can simple swipe the code in this post and save it in your google notebook or past it somewhere you can copy and paste it easily into a comment.

Comment Spam Can Seal Code

Some of these middle of the night ideas turn out to be vampire ideas,  (They can’t stand the light of day).

This might be one of them or maybe not.

You don’t need any CSS.  You don’t have to download and host the image.  I’ll always leave it up so it won’t ever become a broken link.  I give you full permission to use this logo in any comment you desire to label as spam on your blog or blogs.

Sometimes it is more fun to make fun of an annoyance than to be annoyed by it.

In most cases if you see this on a comment here at the Lab I will have removed the link URL to the spammer’s site unless there is humorous value in leaving it.  Then an rel=”no follow” will get attached to it if necessary.

Are you ready to have some fun with spam?

Stumble it!
