I get lots of comment spam and it’s all captured by Akismet. What a great plugin. I look at spam comments once in a while. Most of it is really stupid junk but some of it is sort of fun. Here are few recent favorites.From Marble Knobs:
You should start pursuing a career in article writing. Greatly written.
Gee, thanks, I knew I was good but didn’t know I was that good.
From Miami Wedding:
I was strolling at the mall when I noticed a thief running towards the door carrying a bag from a young lady. I was glad that it wasn’t me whose bag was stolen but I felt sad for the victim. Life in general can be unpredictably harsh for some of us.
That’s a very original story for a spam comment. But Akismet already knows you so give up now.
From some spammer with a random collection of letters for a name:
I like use viagra, but this no good in my life, so viagra now good.
Sounds like you have some serious problems.

Does the filter work with e-mails too? I’ve got so many spams and I don’t know where they came from or how they slipped into my inbox.
Also what does it have to do with sushi? That picture could ruin my diet… XD

Akismet is a WordPress plugin so doesn’t do anything with email.
I searched for “weird spam” and found that pic, just thought it was funny, nothing to do with the story.
