Mutely Boots Rooklike

Lately this blog has been inundated with commenter(s) as never before.  Mind you, they’re all spam, but what the automated blog commenting machine doesn’t realize is the beauty of the spam delivered.  I can’t even figure out what they’re trying to sell!  It’s like reading the back of a shampoo bottle, in French, while lather stings your eyes. 

 Hopefully this post, into which I’ll paste some of their language, doesn’t attack the viewer (you) with a terrible insidious virus-like being.  (I’m thinking of Cloverfield, which since seeing on Sunday I can’t stop thinking of.)

This is a random selection of comment titles from a random selection of fake commentors.

P.S. If you’re in NYC tonight, go to NYU’s Lilian Vernon House for a reading from the really incredible and important anthology State of the Union, fresh from Wave Books.  Readers will include Rebecca Wolff, Katy Lederer, Matthew Rohrer, Matthea Harvey, Noelle Kocot, Tao Lin, Eileen Myles, Tracy K. Smith, and Edwin Torres. I wish I could say I would be there too.
