A few weeks ago I did a post about how I keep getting comments - written in Japanese - on a post I did about my Mom's hand-made birdbaths. I never publish these comments (reject!) because, when translated, they are a little bit creepy - always about "girls" and/or "runaways". Even weirder, there is NEVER a link to some other site, which you might expect with such comments - and the text of the message is always different. So this is not some kind of SpamBot which is trying to insert a link to some sketchy Japanese website.
I get about 2-3 of these attempts a week - and I have NEVER published one of them. But whoever this is, he/she/it keeps trying.
Today I got another one. I cut and pasted the Japanese text into Google Translate, and this is what it came up with:
Away From Home has left a new comment on your post "Hand-Crafted Birdbaths For Sale":Why play with a girl who ran away from home? They are so embarrassed, I have walked many children stay in the house of a man he met many bulletin board. Provide a place for kids with such a Horseman.
Ewwwww ... creepy, right?!? But I love the fact that if you insert the same text into the Yahoo/Babelfish translator, you get similar but definitely different results:
Leaving Home has left a new comment on your post " Hand-Crafted Birdbaths For Sale":It doesn't try playing with the girl you have left home? Because she have been troubled with the money, it is the child which stays and is walking the house of the various man who knows each other with the bulletin board to be many. The place of the coming out meeting with such a child is offered.
Double-EWWWWWW!!! What is going on here?!? And why does he ONLY try to leave this comments on that one birdbath post from July?? So I did some Internet research, and I think I may have found my rogue Commenter...
Bad Kitty!!

WOW, the freaks really do come out at night.
OK, that's really crazy.
I do have a friend who speaks Japanese, so, if you want, you can e-mail the text to me and I'll e-mail it to him for a more accurate translation.
If you're curious.
I was thinking because u had ADSENSED ur blog, thats what causes it.
You got me hook line and sinker, I was expecting an explanation, not the kitty picuture.
my cat's name actually is bad kitty.
in all seriousness i hope it stops- that is kind of an essay version of a weird fortune cookie message.

That is so weird!!
Hahaha that was great.
FYI: This post is true - those comments are real. The LOLCat I found when I did an image search of "Japanese"... I couldn't NOT use it!
XOXOXOXOXOXO
I think I'm turning Japenese, I really think so...
Does anyone else remember that song?
Hey Sis.
Sam, you bet I do! The Vapors! Still one of my favorites!
Somehow it makes crazy sense that a cat would be doing it. They're devilish that way. ;) XOXO
Wow, that is Ker-Razy!
I have a follower that is a random japanese porn blog... maybe it's the same guy.
Have you tried the GMail labs? There is a new feature that will translate email from any language into one you can understand and/or use. Certainly this would not take into account just weird stuff and oddballs.....
