A HN comment that adds nothing to the discussion, people post it because they need to pat themselves on the back, and it's upvoted? Don't get me wrong, I find your comment OK. The current trend of garbage comments with no content on HN is a good topic to laugh about. But do you want an entire comment about this? Do you want that to be in an HN thread? There are thousands of such joke accounts. Are you going to comment about them all?
