I get some pretty funny comments in the moderation queue that I don’t publish, usually things that have nothing to do with the site but are written to look like “normal” comments that slip through the spam filter. This one might be my all-time favorite.
It was posted in response to my writeup of Long Beach restaurants, which started with this passage:
Dessert first: Frozen yogurt is all the rage in southern California, and the most popular chain is Pinkberry, so I felt almost obligated to try it so I could make fun of all of the people who consume the stuff. I was, however, unprepared for how absolutely vile the stuff is.
The user’s comment:
Kieth, if you like frozen yogurt try the Pinkberry in downtown Long Beach off Pine.
Saddest part? The commenter is a lawyer.
Reading comprehension FAIL.
Keith – if you REALLY like frozen yogurt there is a place called “Johnny’s” on Paramount Blvd (cross street Del Amo) that’s, in my humble opinion, a solid place if you are ever in that area.
