- w9thwonder, on 10/12/2007, -15/+109I am sure Kevin Rose already knows about all this truthiness.
- willis77, on 10/12/2007, -3/+63He left out the 200 replies to the first comment from all the latecomers butting in line. Worthless 1st-comment hijackers.
- Zipp425, on 10/12/2007, -8/+57haha megagram, that was just cruel. Poor guy has been pick on enough.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+45Wow, so I guess I don't even have to "spam" anymore. You guys will all do it for me.
- mikev, on 10/12/2007, -1/+34(grammar police) Actually, it would be *you're* a bunch of fags.
- mookieXL, on 10/12/2007, -2/+34In Soviet Russia, overlord jokes blend you!
Move on to next thread. - m3mn0n, on 10/12/2007, -4/+28IN SOVIET RUSSIA, COMMENTS DIGG YOU DOWN!
- benc, on 10/12/2007, -3/+27The article is missing one biggie: the otherwise insightful, funny or useful comment that's bogusly posted as a reply to the first post. Despite the fact that it has NOTHING to do with that post.
Never mind that the rest of the replies will now be a jumbled amalgamation of two unrelated threads! You get more diggs when you cut to the front of the line! - Roger, on 10/12/2007, -1/+23(snappy comeback)
- oskite, on 10/12/2007, -5/+26leemac, it's not spam. it's two jokes in one.

- SirNoobius, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19algorithm?
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. - duralexsedlex, on 10/12/2007, -3/+19(immature mockery of Roger's joke)
- mikev, on 10/12/2007, -2/+16(soviet russia joke)
- megagram, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15"haha megagram, that was just cruel. Poor guy has been pick on enough."
Yeah, but you gotta admit: it was pretty damn fitting. I just couldn't resist. Had to keep the algorithm alive! - EricAnderton, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13That was a well thought out, funny yet insightful look at how the comment system is used and abused here on digg.
I'm also too far down the page to be noticed. - BugMeNot2, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15Hi guys. Cool conversation.
Please visit this site.

Thanks for getting the joke!! I should have linked to that specific article instead of the original home page link. Meh! I'm glad some of you are getting it. - smartssa, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8he forgot about the ***** in mouth comment!
- psyphen, on 10/12/2007, -4/+9The internet is made up of tubes. Haha look at how funny I am. God that Ted guy is such a nub.
- magicmarc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Obviously, this is all true.
- Lumiras, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5i smell a new theme song for Diggnation....
- rhettnyedotorg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5you forgot Linux, Kevin Rose and general elitism.
- phatalbert, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5where's the overlord joke?
- alej744, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I wish
the current one sucks dick - alej744, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4(you have no life joke)
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+8[insert: tinfoil hat joke]
- PathDaemon, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Wait, was that supposed to rhyme? I couldn't tell over the loud sucking noise.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3You need to parenthesise it to make it work.
- Boofster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3(grammer police) tin foil is too words budee...get wit it.
- diggerphelps, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3>>>
# comment 11: obscure cultural reference which absolutely noone gets except 1 guy who is 38 years old, lives on Dr. Pepper and Pizza and has no life -> 2 diggs
* reply #1: the guy with no life praising comment 11 -> 1 digg
>>>
OMG, I'm like totally that guy! - benc, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Agreed. Sorry for butting in line.
- invader, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2it's an encrypted message.. only individuals of superior intelligence can understand the seemingly random assortment of characters..........
- daGUY, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Hilarious and spot on, except he forgot a few things:
The obligatory link to DuggMirror (even if it hasn't cached the site in question yet)
The obligatory "DUPE" comment (always in all caps and with no other text)
The obligatory "Buried as inaccurate" (because the poster's title for the article had one tiny change from that of the original article - probably to save space - thus making it completely inaccurate and unrepresentative)
Digg on! - Cglass, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@megagram - You almost made me cry with laughter, almost. :-)
- RobertBogley, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Just how does Mr Baby Man get three articles in a row on the digg front page ? Is he digging his own stuff ?
http://www.digg.com/users/MrBabyMan/news/submitted - deboosher, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3it's actually spelt "you're a fag"... fag.
- grammarpolice, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yes! I made it to the front page ! I wonder what I said to get -34 diggs in that story?
- HunterTV, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Funny, but Simpsons did it already.
- rickcarson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Dr Pepper is the nectar of the gods!
- abid786, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Also, he says : "replies #2 - #10: insult to the second replier -> 10 to 15 diggs"
It should say insult to the FIRST replier. This way, the second replier is insulting himself... - taotehue, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4i was going to post something very useful here, but it is actually too far down on the page to ever get noticed.
- CaffeineAddict, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Lol, wasnt the comment about PathDaemon's comment being spelled wrong suppose to come before the overlord joke?
@OP - Very nicely done, hats off to you for livening up my day - frant1c, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I knew the Digg community would not let me down. I'm at work now, and I'm literally crying from laughter (;
