Flattery Will Get You Everywhere
This past weekend, I was so pleased to discover I had my very first “anonymous” comment. It made me feel so warm and fuzzy inside. So much so, I decided instead of banishing it to the comment section I would give it the recognition it truly deserves.
So without further ado, I present to you “Anonymous Coward” and his love for my blog:
Anonymous Coward | anon@anon.com | 196.46.71.251
This blog post of yours make you sound like a deadbeat loser.
If you can’t afford to pay to host your blog, you must be one low income earner, if you even earn at all.
Fuck I live in Africa, and a lot of people I know (including myself) pay for whole servers which are hosted in the United States at a cost of over $100 per month.
And yes, we all earn considerably more than $1 a day in Africa.
So much for the myth of rich Americans.
Yeah, shut your blog down. The web has enough dead beats already.
Can you feel the love? I mean, isn’t it just fantastic?
In all seriousness, thank you Anonymous Coward, for showing me how truly un-American I really am. I mean golly, had you not happened upon this blog, I would probably have kept my pitiful $86 all to myself. And by doing so, would have dispelled the myth of the rich American, plundered the economy and above all, let the terrorists win! I just can’t have that.
So again, thank you Anonymous Coward, for showing this deadbeat loser the error of her ways.

What a douchebag!
If he’s such a wheeler-dealer, why doesn’t he pay for your hosting?
He’s in South Africa, by the way. I’m guessing he’s an Afrikaaner. They grow some simple-minded angry white boys down there.

Well, how special- a comment he values enough to not sign his name to. That takes guts.

Billymac: I’ll be honest, it stung a bit when I first read it. Now, I just think it’s funny.
Brent: Thank you. He is a douchebag of the highest order. I don’t even want to know why he is the way he is.
Kelly: Thanks. It took me a couple of days to find it funny. I look at it today and see what a pathetic loser this guy must be.
Colonel: Doesn’t it though? I mean, why sign your real name and email when you can go the distance as an anonymous coward?

If I did not before, I now officially love you. I am so happy you posted about this comment (which I had seen that you had left public), and was OH-so-hoping that you would respond to it in a post. (Because, um, hey, that’s what I would have done! *wink*)
Except I may have gone the whole proverbial nine yards with a public post filled with a fountain of obscenities and a direct IP map to the user’s server, complete with a copy of my email to the server’s administrator denoting gross misuse and harassment.
(But I suspect that, since you are a Lady, you did that behind the scenes. *smile*)
Brava, my dear!

What Anonymous Coward didn’t tell you is that he pays for his server by pocketing donations from American Aid programs.
Yeah, so much for the myth of rich Americans. We aren’t rich anymore because we donate all of our money to bug eaters.

Atherton: Awww. I love you too! Believe me, the post was filled with venomous obscenities when I started. It took all my strength not to publish it!
Mike:
Thanks for the laugh!

I googled my proxy server’s IP address and came across this old comment of mine.
I’m surprised that you turned my off-handed comment into an entire post.
That’s a lot of recognition you just handed me on a plate, and I don’t think my comment deserved that much attention.
Actually, I’d like to apologise for hurting your feelings. I was in a pretty bitter mood that night and I guess I just vented my acidic feelings on the first blogger I came across.
