Sharp uptick in spam, both e-mails and spam comments. (I moderate comments, so all the spammy ones wind up going where the goblins go, yo-ho, yo-ho....)
Anyway, it occurred to me this morning that if Charlie Brown were a modern sort, he wouldn't compare getting a chain letter to finding out you have gum stuck to the bottom of your shoe; he would say that an inbox full of spam comments to be deleted was like having gum stuck to the bottom of your shoe.
the original comic strip that inspired this thought. I used to read Peanuts obsessively as a kid; my mom had a bunch of the original compilations (the little paperbacks with the horrible, cheap newsprint paper) that she gave to me.
