- AussieCynic, on 05/07/2008, -6/+3Oh I so understand where you are coming from...
I remember the excitement of Ping pong on the Atari.. it was like magic...
of that is sad... lol - bstory, on 05/07/2008, -6/+5and here I thought they were all super cool and hot... at least that what they say they are in the chat rooms
- gracie1402, on 05/07/2008, -9/+2Although I am brand new to the whole "digging" thing, this article just cracked me up!
My sister told me that people who blog (and probably "digg") are like people who like to smell their own farts...it made me laugh (and then question if that is what I have dimished to...) - LewP, on 05/07/2008, -6/+4Ummmm, good story Brian...but contrary to Gracie's comment, I'm not a big fan of smelling my own farts...well, at least not today.
- louiebaur, on 05/07/2008, -7/+4Good story brian I think I will go smoke another doobie
- matschig, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1K. Me too
- teh_techie, on 05/07/2008, -4/+14What about those of us who use Digg to pass the time while sitting on our computer butts at work?
- plainOldFool, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1More like wasting time while at work.
- AManWithNoName, on 05/07/2008, -3/+9I never understood why diggers are so against submitting their own content. I mean, does it honestly make any difference? The article is on digg either way, and will receive diggs the same way, so it really shouldn't matter one iota if the digger who submitted is the author of the article.
I think what it comes down to is that diggers like that race to see who can submit an article first--XKCD is proof of this.- DeskFlyer, on 05/07/2008, -4/+4Who are you arguing with?
- spinchange, on 05/08/2008, -2/+1I think he's speaking to the author's mentioning that he submits his own content and when he says,
"The Digg philosophy is the only credible story is a story someone else wrote..."
- spinchange, on 05/08/2008, -2/+1I think he's speaking to the author's mentioning that he submits his own content and when he says,
- bcuban, on 05/07/2008, -5/+1You cant see desk flyers comments because I have previously blocked him from leaving any further commentary on my page . In looking at his comments around digg, all he does is leave often offensive hateful comments for no objective reason. It is one thing to critique a digg. It is another to be just an angry guy on an endless rant...
- bcuban, on 05/08/2008, -4/+1Oh well, -I will have to figure that out... the guy is still just an angry ranter.... needs serious therapy...
- synystar, on 05/07/2008, -2/+3I can see DeskFlyer's comment. I think you forgot to hit the "Block This User for EVERYONE!" button.
- DeskFlyer, on 05/07/2008, -4/+4Who are you arguing with?
- xsquirrel378x, on 05/07/2008, -3/+20yeah maybe if peoples blogs didnt suck ass like yours they would get more digg press
- TeasasTips, on 05/07/2008, -6/+3thanks louie for reminding me what I need to do
- diggleague, on 05/08/2008, -3/+33This could be the worst submission ever on Digg
- fakekevinrose, on 05/08/2008, -4/+2"mac chick of the month" submissions are worse.
- Hayaemsay, on 05/08/2008, -3/+1*****. Need I say more?
- fakekevinrose, on 05/08/2008, -4/+2"mac chick of the month" submissions are worse.
- MikeonTV, on 05/08/2008, -6/+2I certainly didn't think of Digg users as self promoters. Until now!
heh! - Nhmarine, on 05/08/2008, -7/+2Sigh... pimple popping nerd with glasses that farts on his cat..... perfect description of me...
Also, I sometimes wonder how many people have blocked me.... could it be because they think I am a pimple popping nerd? Oh, no, wait, it is that my comments demonstrate stupidity, that's why =] I am zitty and smelly teen on digg that pisses people off usually and proud (not really) of it! - dabura, on 05/08/2008, -7/+0i guess i'm a lazy digga =D
- fakekevinrose, on 05/08/2008, -1/+2TEEHEE!!!!! DO YOU LIEK NARUTO?????
- Charklii, on 05/08/2008, -0/+15My philosophy: If I like it, I Digg it. I don't care about much else. Having said that - I'm burying this article as lame.
- matschig, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1ditto
- asancho, on 05/08/2008, -2/+13 words.
Comic. Book. Guy. - CrudeDarkness, on 05/08/2008, -0/+8what does you sitting in front of the computer all day and chimpcats have to do with "digger geeks unite"?
- bcuban, on 05/08/2008, -2/+1you cant possibly be that stupid. please tell me you are not..... how do you even know how to turn your computer on?
- dbbblondon, on 05/08/2008, -3/+1I gave him a sympathy digg
- Hayaemsay, on 05/08/2008, -0/+4Take it back, now.
- 10goto10, on 05/08/2008, -1/+81983 called, it wants its computernerd stereotype back.
- TheWorm, on 05/08/2008, -0/+5"geek glasses wearing, dateless, pimple popping nerd, barricaded in his room bedroom smoking a doobie while drinking a diet soft drink, farting on his cat"
That was when I stopped reading the article.- bcuban, on 05/08/2008, -3/+1guess you could identify with it so there was no need to read further....
- Sweetheart28, on 05/08/2008, -0/+5Why did I bother reading this???
- bcuban, on 05/08/2008, -1/+1I don't know.. Why did you bother?
- bcuban, on 05/08/2008, -7/+1Hey everyone, thanks for all the comments! I knew this would get hammered by a lot of people as satire type comedy is really a "love it or hate it" type proposition. What I just am just truly amazed at however are the number of people who commented and messaged me about "chimpcats" I don't eve know what to say to that other than to be constantly amazed as to what people will believe just because someone took pen to paper..... If there is really ever a" chimpcat" bred, I am sure it will set a new digg record..... I have already copyrighted the name.... In the meantime society is safe...
- shitdigga, on 05/08/2008, -0/+4Brian, mate, right now I'm trying to fathom just how much of retarded geriatric you are. The moral of your attempt is that the more funding we get for 24-hour supervised care, the better all of us will be.
- bcuban, on 05/08/2008, -4/+1your digg name is appropriate. I am sure that is exactly how your close friends refer to you... You should be proud...
- alphgeek, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2So...we have Jimmy Carter and his ne'er-do-well brother Billy....we have Bill Clinton and his cokehead brother Roger...and we have billionaire entrepeneur Mark Cuban and you, writing self promoting blogs about your pimples and asphyxiating your cat. You should be proud...
- bcuban, on 05/08/2008, -4/+1your digg name is appropriate. I am sure that is exactly how your close friends refer to you... You should be proud...

- theshizzler, on 05/08/2008, -0/+5Burying as lame seems so understated.
- akamakavely, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1Well i can't wait to be a proud owner of the name Digg geek !
- RcHer, on 05/08/2008, -0/+5I clicked on this article expecting someone that needed help.. But this is super-gay.
Buried. - diggface5000, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1So I was totally ready to unite behind something like that kid who needed a prom date... this fell short.
