I understand, you mean "lighten up." I come here more for the information and insight than the humor, and a lot of that information lives in the comments. We already have Reddit for fluff and everything else, so why clone that here?
I just think sarcasm (like your comment here) and certain strains of humor (the replicating meme, for example) are counterproductive, though I don't by any means wish to discourage original/well-thought-out humor.
- SwellJoe 18y agoAh, yes, it's good to keep things very concise, and only comment when it adds something of value to the thread. One wouldn't want to muck it up with sarcasm, tired old nerd humor, or pointless whinging in response to a good-natured one-line attempt to subtly point out amusing contradictions endemic in concepts like "social news software". Good thing we've nipped that sort of thing in the bud, so the beautiful signal can shine through unhindered by noise.
