		<description>You ignorant sod!

That was no typo.  It is well-known that German monkeys are rigid iconoclasts, who will riot if painted, or otherwise reduced to images by the profane.</description>

		<description>It does explain why foolie has been so prevalent though; he&#039;s got fewer playgrounds open to him.

Seems to be driving him bonkers, too.

		<description>I followed RB&#039;s link to the LGM thread.  I really wish I hadn&#039;t.  Brought up many questions as to personality type, and none of those questions are actually worth spending any time on.  And so: blart.</description>

		<description>This has been most entertaining. As an Old Guy who happened upon the online scene back in the day when VIC-20&#039;s were in vogue and some of us burned up our credit cards exploring fictitious caves on CompuServe, it takes me back to the Glory Days of Computing when Apple, Atari, Commodore, and IBM afficianados would have at each other with such insightful comments as &quot;Atari Rules!&quot; and &quot;PCs Suck!&quot; 

Even then, one could differentiate those who might have meaningful contributions to enlightened conversation from those who might not by their overuse of the letter &quot;o&quot; in the word &quot;lose.&quot;

Interestingly, if I go back to my earliest Usenet archives, I can see that the Internets showed early promise for two things: flame wars and porn. It&#039;s good that we&#039;ve made so much progress!</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Seen on another blogüe&lt;/i&gt;

I followed this link, which led me to a Spencer Ackerman post, in which he cites the following:
&lt;blockquote&gt;Managing comments is a lot like COIN. You have to patrol continually and forge alliances with the local population.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
and approvingly notes:
&lt;blockquote&gt;She had me at the COIN reference, but anyway: right on.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Blog proprietor-commenter interaction as counter-insurgency.  Awesome.  You know that warm, cozy feeling small-town inhabitants in Norte de Santander get when the Colombian military rolls into town?  That&#039;s what I feel right now.</description>

		<description>Well, if there had to be a designated troll-slapping thread, at least it was one in which the topic was monkey-painting and linguistics, rather than a serious issue to be distracted from.</description>

		<description>Deep Thought:

&lt;i&gt;On Topic&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Off Topic&lt;/i&gt; have the same acronym, yet &lt;i&gt;OT&lt;/i&gt; is taken to mean the latter. It is the goal of all surrealist commenters to render ambiguous these warnings of the polite linking blog reader. This can only be done by swinging the meaning of OT for a spell. By my estimations, it will require no more than 110,000 troops and a Holy Bible for every tenth man. (Potable water optional.) Other holy texts may be subjected to golden showers.</description>
