Har har. Old joke.

• BrandonM 18y ago
  For whoever voted me down: 1. The joke is old and I assumed that most of us have heard it before 2a. What he said really didn't comment on the article 2b. Therefore, I felt the comment didn't add anything 2c. I would, however, automatically expect to see such a comment on Reddit 3. The fact that it's being voted up (5 at this point) disappointed me 4. I voted him down. People always complain when they are voted down without explanation 5. I intended my previous comment to explain why I voted him down That's all. I could make the leap and say that the quality of comments here is going down, but that might be going too far for everyone's tastes.

So set a good example and don't reply to downmods with 7 reasons why your comment shouldn't have been downmodded. Even good comments get downmodded from time to time; deal with it.

    If everyone explained their downvote in comments, how crappy do you think this site would be? Please don't.

    Voting you down for insufficient explanation, are 5 bullet points really all you can manage when explaining something of this magnitude?
