    i want to run my fingers through your chest hair
    1. drjay1966
      Umm...was that a comment somebody left on your blog or are you propositioning me (or Arnous81)?
    2. siralmo
      that was the comment
    3. busylizzy
      You two crack me up!

    So far I have not gotten any bad comments. Some people just either do not have any class or they are just plain stupid. Most are not like the guy that posted that comment.

    I received this one just this morning - totally irrelavant to the post about the jackalope.

    "Hello, looking on Google for Snake wine information I found your website, do you have anything more posted here related to Snake wine liquor ?
    Snake wine is shown there:
    www.asiansnakewine.com/"
    1. busylizzy
      I read your Jackalope article and left a comment (not about snake wine).
    2. MadMadMargo
      I know - that comment about snake wine really threw me. According to Wikipedia:

      "Snake wine (rượu rắn in Vietnamese) is an alcoholic beverage that includes a whole venomous snake in the bottle. It originated in Vietnam and can be found around Southeast Asia. The snakes, preferably venomous ones, are not usually preserved for their meat but to have the snake poison dissolved in the liquor. However, the snake venom is denatured by the ethanol; its proteins are unfolded and therefore inactivated."

      Thanks for stopping by and do come again!

    I got threatened once, an extremist threatened to rip my heart out when his organisation came to town

    I do have a worst comment, but I cant find it on my blog. Anyways, I have been called an idiot, a whore, racist, illiterate, weird angry email about sucking something and my lady parts and a death threat...life was great for a political blogger during the campaign.
    1. LaMirabelle
      Really ? Now I really have to check out your blog. Coming !
    2. drjay1966
      Yeah, I need to read it more often, too...
    1. siralmo
      that is a bit weird
    2. sulz
      likeitwinit: hehe, thanks. i had fun with that. reading back now i'm still enjoying what transpired after that!

      siralmo: which part you found weird?
    3. siralmo
      the comment itself

    I read your post about this just a little bit ago! Bummer you got that, and I thought you handled it perfectly.

    My worst comment(s) came in a series one night about five months into my blogging life. All from the same guy. A guy who is respected in blog communities I frequent. He's on many blogrolls of blogs I admire. And I like his blog (or used to....haven't been over there since "the incident"). I had written a rather commonplace post, nothing provocative. There were a few comments at the end of the day and then in came his, in which he spun out of control in a tirade about how I live my life and would I do this, do that... Then he'd build upon the insanity in the following comment, and then the following. Very incendiary, very threatening. By the final comment I could read sheer exhaustion in his lines.

    I responded that I was "totally nonplussed" and suggested he get off the drugs. And that was that. Never heard from him again. For awhile I didn't see any comments from him at other blogs we both frequented. Then he left a comment elsewhere - and received a response from the blog author - alluding to his "troubles" and their aftermath. So it really does appear that my blog was in the neighborhood of ground zero in some meltdown. He's a very creative guy and I hope all the best for him now and in the future...

    "I like your pictures even though they are not original"
    Good one.
  9. roentarre
    Someone called me a pervert before
    1. LaMirabelle
      Yeah but you are a photographer. Photographers take pictures of naked stuff : animals, trees etc...
    2. roentarre
      Hehe

      Or people call me being unnatural taking nature images with unnatural means...
  10. Hangingonahyphen
    I haven't had a bad comment. That's why I am very careful not to upset other people too. YOu reap what you sow. But anyway, I can take the heat, good or bad, a comment is a comment. At least someone cared to say soemthing. It's better than being ignored completely
  11. Floormodel
    my worst was from a woman who misread my Mother's Day post and proceeded to tell me I should honor my Mother..... not gonna happen but if she'd read all the words I typed she wouldn't have taken it upon herself to tell me I was an ungrateful child..
    1. drjay1966
      Some people just troll the internet looking for people to judge....
  12. TeresaSilverthorn
    I had someone who continually attempted to re-write my blog in their own words, as if writing a book report for school. One comment was seven paragraphs long.
    I had another who wrote comments so long, that if printed out, they would have reached the floor. He disagreed with absolutely everything I said, and enhanced it with subtle threats and vicious criticism.
    I printed all of his comments, and threats, for two days. Interestingly, that blog got more traffic than any blog I had written, which was sad.
    Reminded me of the school playground, when everyone would gather to watch a fight.
    Sad.

    Worst comments is no comment -no such thing as a bad comment...

    I suppose that's true for some people..

    This is one thing I love about the spam filtering offered by Askimet. I don't have to look at such messages unless I choose to.
  16. Jeunelle
    Here's one I got recently and immediately deleted.
    "I WANT TO DO YOU"
    I'm surprised it slipped through because I do have Askimet but I did find it somewhat amusing.
    1. drjay1966
      Ummm...that one wasn't from me, was it?
    2. crpitt
      That is funny!

      I got 'You have such nice eyes, I want to f*ck them'.
    3. Jeunelle
      crpitt... OMG well that takes the cake for me. SICKO'S
    4. crpitt
      I loved that comment actually, we dated after it.







      Not

    My worst comment was also from a woman who mistook me for defaming women in one of my articles.I just playfully teased a female blogger in a site that she got wild. But the one who I teased came to my support along with other co bloggers and finally she had to keep her mouth shut.Then after a few days she became friendly with me & started to participate on my blogs.

    The worst comment I have ever received also produced some of the funniest responses from other people. I didn't dare delete the comment, as it created a thread of amazing comments.

    I had posted a comic entitled Aquaman's Special Powers(extremelyfunny.info/aquamans-special-powers/) and had received a nasty comment (which I will censor for those with sensitive eyes).

    "How much of a superhero do you have to be to ****ing proofread your own web page to see if you missed any spaces between words.

    Also you could use the same ***ing font in the speech bubbles so it doesn’t look so obviously ****ing photoshopped, you ****ing dip****.

    Thumbs down. You ****ing suck **** and you should kill yourself now."


    Some fanboys have no sense of humor.
    1. salomey5
      Wow, talk about overreacting!

      Mine was: "Your site sucks."
      Short, sweet, and straight to the point.
      Not what I'd call "constructive criticism" though...
    2. DeadRooster
      Jinksy -- That was the funniest thing I've read all day! Hilarious!

    A comment suggesting that I hold my breath for several minutes to end all my troubles. That was mean, but I didn't get mad. I replied by saying that I'd already tried that
  20. hypnotips
    I only have 2 comments so far, which are nice. Seems like it takes a while to attract readers.
    1. destinedforwhat
      i don't have many comments either so no bad ones yet. but i guess when you don't have many readers it's easy to avoid it
  21. busylizzy
    All this craziness! I considered writing an article about declawing cats on my cat lovers blog, but I am afraid of being tarred, feathered, and set on fire by either one of the sides of this debate. It's a nasty issue and some people are militant about it! For now, I am not writing anything about the issue because I am afraid (but as they say, publicity is publicity!)
    1. salomey5
      There is no such thing as bad publicity. Not if you enjoy the hits that ensue.
      On the message boards where I post, I link my blog in my signature. Last year, I wrote a post on American Idol, and cracked a joke on one of the contestants. Someone hated it and replied that I was a horrible person who wrote garbage.
      That day, I got 100+ hits for the first time.

      So I'd write my post on declawing cats if I were you...
    2. drjay1966
      Pet issues can really bring out the worst in people, can't they? I've been amazed at how somebody bringing up the subject of letting dogs off leash can turn a perfectly harmonious town meeting into a free-for-all....
    3. busylizzy
      Hey, DrJay - is there a story you'd like to share with us?
  22. foodhere
    Well it wasn't on my blog but it was in my convenience store suggestion box and it read:

    "It smells like a wet dog in here. And the floor is sticky. Get the guy behind the counter to pull the stick out of his ass and use it as a mop handle once in a while"

    I am still deeply and personally hurt
    1. sensico
      LOL, dont worry most convince stores are like that so you should know that your store isnt alone
  23. kat822
    mine was left by a bunch of homeschoolers that thought I was the anitchrist and "thank god I don't teach their kids" lol
  24. cooper
    goodness if I wrote a post for every totally offensive, stupid, hate-filled, obscene or otherwise inappropriate comment I would never be writing anything else.
  25. dune
    This is the WORST COMMENTS I ever seen on line
    moronail.net/?pic=832
  26. Rich
    I had someone promise to harm another person at a convention in one comment.

    The lawyer that wanted me to retract a comment on someone else's blog cam in close second. I didn't, which resulted in borderline stalking on his part. Ho hum.
  27. rfburnhertz
    I've been threatened and that fun stuff, but the worst and strangest was someone telling me that I 'tasted like a turd'.

    I dunno, that was the extent of the comment.
    1. busylizzy
      How would they know what a turd tasted like?
    2. drjay1966
      that's exactly what I was wondering...
  28. PussDaddy
    Most likely it began with a C and ended in T, or it began with a B and ended H.
    1. crpitt
      Cat and Batch? how rude!
  29. ophase
    Not a comment but someone has made an entrance writing this on google search box:
    "Why does God want little children to be orphan?"
    It's sad.
  30. faithsju243
    My unfavorite comment:
    You are quite funny and you elicit hormonal feelings as well. What a lovely combo.

    I guess I should be flattered.
    1. drjay1966
      Sounds like a very horny nerd....
    2. sensico
      I agree, thats definitely from a nerd...who the hell else would say "elicit hormonal feelings" in this context...or in any context for that matter
  31. LynneaUrania
    My blog does not give the capability to post a comment, but only refers to an e-mail.

    So far all the bad comments have been against me personally instead of the subject matter. Most of those have been by Lutheran clergymen.
    1. drjay1966
      Clergymen making personal attacks...seems like that SHOULD be surprising...but it isn't....

    "You sound stupid."

    Well, maybe I do?

    I had a friend guest blog for me once. He wrote a post about tattoos on women from a guy's perspective. Boy did that hit a nerve with some people. We got called all sorts of names! But I guess even bad publicity is good publicity, right?

    someone asked me if i was interested in being a porn star :/

      How come Old Walt never get offers like that?

    "I cooked this and is sucked. I must admit that I was too lazy to go out and buy charcoal so I broiled it, and I used Tilapia not trout. But still, the stuffing was lame sauce, and it all tasted terrible. No taste but fishiness."

    My response:
    So let me get this straight...
    You didn't grill it?
    You didn't use the right fish?
    All signs point to you f*cking up the filling and you want to say my recipe is bad? F*ck you jackass. You are a total idiot.

    oh yeah...stop reading my f*cking blog and don't forget to go f*ck yourself dipsh*t.
    1. MidwestMom
      That is *precious*.


      Don't mess with the monkey.
  37. MissSuzie
    I received this not long ago:

    Dear Miss Suzie

    I for one, think you are a complete nutjob! Anyone who remains in such a relationship has to be missing a few marbles. I pity your children and truly believe you are a horrible mom. Anyone who plays tricks on their children needs to be put in the nuthouse. Your vulgar language speaks volumes about your character. Your actions show the real you. I can only pray that whatever you choose to do that your children are protected from your actions.

    Signed
    Just my two cents
    1. cookingasshole
      anon = sissy
    2. MissSuzie
      Exactly!
  38. greencurmudgeon
    I've had comments from fascists who took umbrage at me calling them traitors to this country who shouldn't be allowed to teach the nation's children.
  39. noetic
    I ... don't have any comments on my blog.

    It is very new, however, so I'm blaming everything on that.
  40. IntoTheAzureSea
    It was deleted by a blog administrator even before I got the chance to see it.
  41. BrazenTeacher
    I deleted it... but wish I hadn't now so y'all could experience it... although it's doubtful you could get THROUGH it to experience it adequately.

    It was probably about 5000 words long... an angry, hostile and extraordinarily ignorant rant on the conspiracies of the planet. Run on sentences, no punctuation... all winding down to dozens of plugs for some god-awful website.
  42. Mortira
    I usually Tagfoot posts that I think are broad enough for a wide audience. For awhile, one of my fellow Tagfooters was coming to my blog and leaving comments about how they "already new all the information in the post, but it was nice to read anyway".

    I seriously considered deleting them. I thought they made my blog look amateurish. Then I figured they also made the other person look snobby.

    I don't send them Tagfoots anymore.
  43. Shuo
    Other than spam,I think it's like "thanks for you comment on my blog!" but I never did that.It was just another ways to drive traffic to his blog.
