Now that you are putting
NO SPAM.
NO SPAM.
at the top, my problem with spam is almost solved. Now I just go through and look for the
NO SPAM.
NO SPAM.
at the top, approve those, and approve them.
Then I just go back, hit the “Mark all as spam” for the rest, and out go the whole 200 or so.
This is great!
I almost lost Simmons because he put his NO SPAM at the beginning of the first paragraph.
Joe used to put No Spam into the first paragraph, but I’ll miss him if he does. I think Joe’s saying No Spam with the small letters if a kind of macho, “I’m not going to follow orders from Bob.” The rest of you realize these are NOT orders. It is just hwat I need and it saves me a LOT of time to just look for
NO SPAM.
NO SPAM.
in big black letters so I can zip through.
Thanks, gang.
Yes, Joe, even you.

No Spam.
No Spam.
No Spam.
You don’t want to miss Joe, Bob. If you miss Joe you’ve missed it all.
Taking orders has never been a problem for me. It doesn’t bother me a bit. It’s the easy way to go.
I’m an old-fashioned kind of guy and I don’t know much about how to do things on the computer. I just put the “no spam” where I thought you wanted it. Then I added a couple of “no spam” just to make sure whatever it was I was going to the trouble of commenting on got picked up on by you. I don’t play stupid childish games like “don’t tell me what to do!”
I could say something like, “you don’t understand people very well, do you, Bob?” But I won’t. You have too many people to deal with so I can understand why you wouldn’t be familiar with everyone on this blog. All I have to do is keep an eye on you and pick on you. You have to keep an eye on everybody else. So that’s not a fair deal is it? So I won’t expect you to understand me as a human being.

I made my living understanding people. I said you didn’t want to oney orders. You said you dont’ want to obey orders.
I said you put “Not spam” instead of “NOT SPAM” because you would consider “NO SPAM” to be slavish.
You explain you did put “Not spam” for my benefit. But I shouldn’t expect you to OBEY me.
Which is exactly what I said.
I understand human beings very well.
I also understand you and me.
