I never respond to spammers. But if I did, I would probably go in the direction of sarcasm....
My dear Blank40. I was so enthralled with your comment that for a moment I found myself speechless. Did you come up with that all by yourself? How delightfully insightful!
What is your secret? Perhaps you've been studying some of the great poets who are known for their ability to communicate immense ideas in just a few words.
In fact, I'd like to examine this further, for the deep, and profound truths that are embedded in your minimalist comment bear further examination.
When you said "like," I could only assume you meant "similar to." And yet, upon deeper reflection, I find myself pondering. Could you have meant something else? I paced my house late into the night, in fact, fixated on this one thing. Perhaps you meant, "So," or "Hello there." Is it possible you meant nothing by that at all? Perish the thought!
Moving on to "wery," I was amazed anew! This could mean so many things. It's like a little phonetic puzzle. I suppose it's possible that you are an India native, and wrote this word as you might pronounce it. A dictionary gave me an additional clue, explaining that "wery" is simply "eye dialect" for the word "very." So THANK you. I've learning something new today!
And finally, let's look at "good post." This little aphorism took my breath away. Your brevity is remarkable. I'm truly enthralled by your ability to communicate this incredibly deep thought so succinctly. Kudos, my friend.
Oh, and thank you for the link. Shameless self-promotion is always highly valued, and putting your completely unrelated link in a comment on my post of course means I will immediately go visit, upvote, and resteem your wonderful content. And naturally, I will follow you and suggest all of my friends do the same. I can't wait to see what you will come up with next!
Brilliant... just brilliant. If only I could learn to do what you do.
Or, alternatively:

That's why spammers always use public internet instead of their own.
Wait "2 Minutes?!" That's just unfair.
Can't stop Loling
It's gold if you can find someone naive enough to both believe and deserve it.
Here comes my entry:
Spam comments like this are frowned upon and more likely than not to be counterproductive. If you were a new member, I'd cut you some slack and assume you didn't know any better but with a rep of 40, that's not going to happen.
The least you could do, other than comment with something resembling correct English ("very" would be a good start), is actually read the post and say something intelligent about it so we all know you did more than scroll to the bottom to litter the comment thread with spam.
That's assuming you're capable of saying something intelligent of course...
Take a moment away from commenting and go to your comments and see the rewards. Do you see all the 0.01 upvotes? By the time they are going to be a reward they are worth zero! You are not only wasting my time but also your own.
OK Checkov......
My response:
If you think piggybacking my posts will increase your visibility you need to go back to the drawing board.
Take your hands off of your keyboard for a few seconds and allow your brain some time to create coherent thoughts. Got it? Spamming suddenly seems less interesting when you have something of value to contribute. If you complete these tasks with an idea of value, congratulations! Now put that idea into words and share it with the world. If you don't successfully complete this regiment, keep your spam thoughts to yourself.
Hey Meathead! SPAM is something you eat, not something you say! And even then, it leaves a bad taste in your mouth...
You see... Spamming is a lot like diarrhea. Profusely messy, gets everywhere, and it just doesn't feel as good. Please don't leave spam comments.
Sounds like you are saying that my post is not REALLY a good post but it is just LIKE a good post. In that case all I have to say is “like, very good comment”
