I reckon I know why you did it as well, but I am glad I am not the only
one who does the same thing while seeing if an author has put in the
effort and used some form validation.
I especially like turning off JS and sending as many blank form enties

Yes, depending on if I disliked the person, as sending them a present
such as that would prove how much I disliked them. (Not that I condone
disliking people), although I felt I needed to come up with some kind
of smart-arsed comment.
