I’m getting aggravated with this spam…

Oct 31, 2010 Author: Dani | Filed under: filibuster

I don’t know if it’s just me, although it probably isn’t… but I’ve been getting spam comments that are supposed to link to some “best finance blog” or something, and the grammar of these spam comments are downright absurd.

I guess that to receive the credit loans from creditors you should have a good motivation. However, once I’ve got a short term loan, just because I wanted to buy a bike.

I think I’ve made the various grammatical inconsistencies clear enough. :P

I mean, if they were even written like the person composing them could fluently write in English, I wouldn’t have a problem with them… aside from doing the obvious and deleting them. Maybe it could also have something to do with how I’ve done so much writing in the past that even the smallest of errors — incorrect conjugations and inaccurate pairings of words — stand out to me.

  • I’d like to play the PlayStation MOVE!

    This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of PlayStation MOVE. All opinions are 100% mine.

    It has always been a bit of a… goal of mine, shall I say, to impart my love and passion for video games on both of my sons. Not only has playing games with my oldest son helped improve his hand-eye coordination, which is especially useful in his case because he suffers from a congenital eye defect that means that he needs to work on that, but it has also helped him develop the patience that he needed to be able to sit on his potty for longer periods of time. It’s also helped him learn to name more objects, particularly the ones that interest him! All in all, there are many reasons why we play games together as a family. :)

    If I had one little wish to be granted from a genie, though, it would be for my sons to get the PlayStation Move for this year’s Christmas. Not only would it give us more games to play during family game nights (which, for us, are just about every single weekend night on the calendar provided that something else doesn’t come up first), but it would probably give my sons something to work toward together as my youngest son got older and developed his own earnest interest in gaming. Although I don’t recall having any sibling rivalry moments of my own because I grew up being the only child in this household, I’m sure that my sons are going to have no small number of their own as they grow up. What better of a way to help them learn to get along then have them play something like Dance Dance Revolution or even LittleBigPlanet 2 together?

    Personally, I would absolutely love to play Dance Dance Revolution, myself.

    And did you know that if you already have a PlayStation 3 of your own, you can bring motion gaming to it for only $99 with the MOVE bundle package? :D

  • My laptop is having another “moment”.

    Oct 30, 2010 Author: Dani | Filed under: filibuster

    For some reason, I’ve been having problems with Adobe Flash and my laptop… not wanting to play music out of the blue at random times. I’ve tried re-installing the most recent version of Flash to see if that would help matters out, but my computer continues to throw the occasional problem at me. This has only been happening over the course of the last few weeks, though. I’m extremely hesitant to reload my computer because I’ve amassed quite a decent music collection on it, and backing up my entire collection would take forever… but it is something that I am considering if nothing else works. :(

    Another thing that I thought about, too — people are representative of the religions, or lacks thereof, to which they ascribe themselves to. If all I’ve seen is this religion practically shoved down my throat, held above other religions for the sole and simple merit that it is that person’s preferred religion and have pretty much had it laid out before me that I am to live my life in a manner acceptable to this religion when I am not even a member of it… is it really any wonder that I don’t want that much to do with it because of that reason alone?

    I’m under the impression that even if I spoke this, it would fall on deaf ears.
