I recently crossed the threshold of 2000 comments on this blog. I found it amusing that the 2000th comment was comment spam, left on one of my entries about comment spam.

I deleted it.

So have you noticed that your entries that mention spam attract more comment spam than regular ones? Cause I have. Which is why I ended up closing the comments on those.
