There must be a hunt puzzle in this.

Can you help me come up with a list of Maximally Average Comments from various high-traffic websites?

Here are a few to get you started:

Slashdot
It's only a flesh wound! +5 Funny

BoardGameGeek
My wife doesn't like this one either. :(

Wikipedia
Please read WP:CIVIL.

Your turn!

I tried to think of the LJ comment and couldn't. This is perfect.

So what were you saying the other day about not liking geek humour any more...? ;)

Don't forget "FIRST POST!"

And on certain liberal blogs, this has been perverted into "Frist!"

But speaking of which, the more typical comment at such places "They're insane/criminals/evil/etc.!" or "I hate those guys so much." or "Impeach already!" or "What the fuck? Are they insane?" (none of these exact quotes, but you get the idea, and I think the WTF type are probably the most common)

The idea comes to mind to suggest several from aintitcoolnews but they're so beaten into the ground, so easily seen when browsing, that I'd rather not and you're probably relieved.

Wikipedia knows all. From their /. article:

* Goatse
* Natalie Portman
* "Hot Grits" Troll
* In Soviet Russia...
* Al Gore References, He "invented the internet". when the subject is the internet.
* Chuck Norris
* "Imagine a Beowulf cluster of those"
* "But does it run Linux?" trolls and other Slashdot trolling phenomena
* I, for one, welcome our new * overlords
* I , you insensitive clod!
* 1) 2) ??? 3) Profit!!!

I think there's been a decrease in lame repetitive jokes recently, but I read mostly at +3 so who knows.

See, now the trick is thinking up sites that you might get that haven't already been mentioned. Hrm.

Daily Kos: Right on! Bush *is* an idiot!
YouTube: That is so fake. (or: "u suck u thing thats funy?")

[identity profile] prog.livejournal.com 2007-01-10 11:51 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, surely:

YouTube (or Google Video)

That might be the internet in general, right now...
