1.The "I'm a free member so I need to write something with lots of words so I can get some points" comment
This was a really good poem and I enjoyed reading it. I particularly liked the lines:-
Oh Sweet Gertrude
Get thee far away from me
For thy swill is making me puke
Oh Piggy piggy piggy
You stink and how
You big fat sow
Oh poor nose of mine
Sniffed stench of swine
(copied and pasted from poem))
Just beautiful words here.
2. The "I can't be bothered, I should have judged this contest ages ago" Comment
Thank you for your entry and good luck.
3.The "I clicked on your poem by mistake" Comment
Great Poem
4. The "I know more about poetry than you do you uneducated unwashed scum of the earth" Comment.
What a disastrous mish mash of words, no rhyme, mitre or any decent form of grammar and don't get me started on your typos. I read this and realised that whoever wrote it has no grasp of the English language whatsoever. Your punctuation is horrendous, and whoever heard of putting a full stop right in the middle of a stanza and why in the world have you interspersed your poem, which is obviously about nothing at all, with love hearts and strange symbols. Why do you call this uneducated form of drivel Dirty Pretty? I never heard the like.. what rot. You should be disqualified from this contest.
5. The "God is Great" Comment
God loves you no matter what you think of him. However when you write poetry like this it is clear that unless you go to church and get saved you are going to hell.

Have to say that once or twice I've been guilty of great poem. I try to think of something enlightning but sometimes that's the only nice thing one can say.

though i am not a free member i still tend to go for the filling space then throw in whatever comes to mind with the piece i have just read
not for the points though as i usually give them away, but for the comment to register a good piece of observation here, i really enjoyed reading it, and all the best to you in the contest, er yeah i think that is it

Hehe I have to say I am guilty of 'great poem' I'm still new to this and awful at commenting. This made me laugh tho' the number of times people have put part of my poem in the comment box...unreal. Very well penned, good luck

LOL, i forgot about that one, when they copy and paste parts of your poem or sometimes the whole flippin thing back at you in a comment
Oh and you gotta love those religous fanatics and God will keep loving you so long as you keep filling that collection plate
God Bless you
thanks for the laughs,

Haha. I admit I've been guilty of the copy and paste thing.
I also leave things like "great poem" when nothing really comes to mind either because I clicked it on accident or the poem really didn't inspire any sort of reaction.

that is five nails in the coffin of 'stuff' this site needs no more of ... hats off to ya ... course, only got one head, but nontheless, my hats are off to ya!!
cool. i've had a bunch of these ... i leave them there for all to see, make fun of them, and put the person on ignore, so they can't come back and edit and I keep 'em on ignore like forever.

Great Poem (yes I did click on this by accident). Just kidding.
I know exactly how you mean with most of these. Especially the copying and pasting one, you'll be surprised how many people do that, or the great poem comment. Thanks, that really helps my calibre.
Great one
