Really cranky this morning

[msagara]

Really really cranky. I live in Canada. It's not my election, and it's not my country, but media-wise, you wouldn't know it at the moment.

Anyway: Because I'm cranky, I'm once again advocating the fact that lj-cuts are your friend. Or they're my friend. Honestly, I wouldn't have flisted people if I weren't interested in at least half of what they have to say -- but I'm trimming people who insist I see 100% of what they have to say 100% of the time, because. Well. Look at the subject.

(sorry to spam you, Michelle)...

No, no, this isn't spam. I don't consider posting links to things I don't find offensive spam. In the right context, I don't consider posting links to things I do find offensive spam, fwiw.

Comment spam has to be divorced from the original post in order to be spam. Bad spelling? Absolutely necessary unless you're an amateur. And gender confusion? (You know, sending email about penis enlargements, except both words spelled in alternate-world English, to women) is a bonus. Sex, drugs, more sex, Help Nigerian Widows, You've Won A Zillion dollars -- spam.

That wasn't spam.

Or to put it another way, holding a conversation isn't spam.

See? This is why you're the poet and I can't finish a book in less than 150,000 words <g>.
