Top Ten Weakest Comments

June 4, 2005

Right now, everyone is stuck on the Grewal tapes. Let me save you a little bit of time. Nothing of substance will come of this, only more hot air. That’s it. So, I have decided to go for something completely different, and make a list of some of the worst comments in blogdom. We have all seen them, maybe even wrote some of them(cough); they are the comments that can lead nowhere or can halt a good conversation in its tracks. I am an advocate of reason, and some bloggers desperately need to return to this fine ideal. So, in no particular order, here are some of those comments. And, if a past reply of yours happens to resemble one of these examples, well, too bad. That’s your fault.

Top Ten Weakest Comments

  1. “I completely agree.”
  2. Umm, thanks. Just slightly better is this one followed by your own post re-hashed and thrown back at you.

  3. “I completely agree, but…”
  4. …but I don’t think you do.

  5. “(finds a typo in your post)…can’t you spell?”
  6. This one rates extremely high on the lame scale. You’ll find the least intelligent using this one.

  7. “Ha-ha.”
  8. Actually, now that I think about it, this isn’t that bad. I am outlandishly hilarious.

  9. “I suggest you take a _____ class. “
  10. The blank is usually a history class, sometimes political science, because apparently completion of such a class at any school, with passing marks or not, automatically makes you an expert on said subject.

  11. “Wow, great post. You’re so great. You write so greatly. Um this is great. You’re a great human…”
  12. Again, retrospectively, not that bad.

  13. “Wow, great post. You’re so great…… check out my site at http://politicsrox.blogme.com”
  14. Now, I am all for shameless self promotion, but a little tact please.

  15. “You’re a blogging whorie!”
  16. Good one.

  17. “Oh yah, you’re a ‘liberal’!”
  18. *Note* This insult only works in the US.

  19. “Just what I figured you to be…a girly man french-canadian liberal weinie.”
  20. …No one else get this one… hmmm… I guess I’m the only one.

These are only a few of the many bad replies out there. We have an increasingly important role in the media (see this post by Jay Currie) and I think this new-found responsibility should be shouldered with due consideration. Of course, that doesn’t mean we can’t toe the line once in a while. So, if you have any more, let me know. And if anyone has received a comment worse than that last one, I’d love to hear it.

  1. I completely agree, but can’t you spell? Ha-ha! I suggest you take a spelling class. But, other than that, great post. You’re so great. You write so greatly. Um this is great. You’re a great human. So, why not check out my site at www.bowjamesbow.net?

    Shame I can’t make the last few fit!
