What the hey?

So the last couple of days I've gotten two or three comments posted by "Anonymous" that are identical to this one:
The world each makes the assumption that the airing of an typographical error is comparable with the discovery of actually - that the fluff and truth are simply opposite. They are nothing of the sort. What the world turns to, when it is cured on a particular boob, is usually fully another fault, and possibly one worse than the triumph one.

Except for a typo I made in the title of the post, this monstrosity is irrelevant and nonsensical. If not for comment moderation, I would have had to go into edit the post and remove this.

I don't mind if someone is posting anonymously IF they are on topic. I mean, Anonymous has written some of the best stuff out there. Just check any large volume quote compilation and you'll see what I mean. But this...What the heck does it mean? It reads like a machine translation...a bad machine translation at that. Notice, unlike the crap that promotes drugs or porn, there is no link. So what the heck is the point of posting comments like this?

I'm assuming there's a bot behind this in some nefarious evil spam commenter's basement server hard at work generating these things. No one would be stupid--or bored--enough to be doing them individually.

I believe it's a bot-produced spam with a hidden virus or worm attached. That attachment is (thankfully) being removed by Blogger. So far.

That's what I thought. But, since it's going through the moderation procedure, I couldn't see how it could make it's attack work.
