Look, ok, I don’t like to brag. Don’t want to make a big deal out of a number. I’m just saying that I have 2,699 spam comments in my queue right now. 2,699! You know what will happen if I get one more? Yeah, baby: 2,700 spam comments.

And I know what you are thinking. You’re thinking maybe some of those spam comments are actually just real comments but I’m calling them spam to increase my numbers. Screw you. That’s ridiculous. I’m not about to rely on actual comments to inflate my spam numbers. Those spam numbers speak for themselves.

But really, what do those spam numbers say? Do they prove I am popular in several former Soviet republics? Actually, that is an argument I could support, but it is not what is important. What is important is that I keep my focus on you, the reader. It doesn’t matter that 2,699 automated content generation systems want my love. It matters that you want to give your love freely. I can’t think of anything I want more. Except perhaps somewhere in the neighborhood of $10,000.
