Question of the Day, August 27

I thought it was somebody’s pen-name.

I never read them.

So they make up a name then. When you have 2 or 3 anons commenting at once, you can’t possibly know who you are addressing.

So you pay more attention to contrived personalities than what is said in the post?

I always read them. Better to be Mr Anon than have friends hate you all the time and skip your comments every time. I’m no coward but why cause my name to become Mr Persona Non Grata..

The closer to a real name someone uses, the more cautious they have to be in their statements. So I’d rather think that anony-moose comments would tend to be most honest.

I figure most of them are Flash so I do read them.

Greetings,

Yeah, I read them. I also check out the links that people post. I’ve been turned on to a number of interesting podcasts (The No Agenda Show) or documentaries or other blogposts by the people here.

Thanks.

Yes. I figure it is someone who hasn’t figured out that,THEY ALREADY KNOW WHO YOU ARE!
Any Nazi fuks from the gov. reading this, You are what is going to destroy the country.I seen the terrorist and they is you.

On TBP? I read everything. It’s an entertainment medium, right?

On other Web sites, the number of “Anonymous” comments seems to rise in proportion to how much of a pain-in-the-ass it is to register and/or log on.

The operators of such sites either haven’t got the message about making their operations user-hostile and its correlation with click rates dropping.

I COULDN’T give a crap whether you read this or not,
unlike Anonymous who COULD give a crap whether u read his post.

If you do care about crap, read W.H. Auden’s “Geography of the House” for a brilliant poetic reflection on that quotidian primal pleasure.
Guaranteed…If you don’t like poetry, you iconoclast posters and commentators will love Auden.
Type in “Geography of the House… Auden” on the Google search line.
Then print out the poem, frame it, and put it on the wall beside your toilet in your outhouse.
Here’s a taste of the treat.
“Seated after breakfast
In this white-tiled cabin
Arabs call the House where
Everybody goes,
Even melancholics
Raise a cheer to Mrs.
Nature for the primal
Pleasure She bestows.

Sex is but a dream to
Seventy-and-over,
But a joy proposed un-
-til we start to shave:
Mouth-delight depends on
Virtue in the cook, but
This She guarantees from
Cradle unto grave…..

Read Auden and you’ll become lovers of the Eratoic in no time.

Skipping comments from folks you judge as assclowns is a private pleasure that hurts no one. It is sort of like playing pocket pool, you smile and none the wiser. <-there a double meaning here, this is one of the rare times I will point out what should be obvious.

But I appreciate reading all kinds of opinions by identifiable personalities, in my mind's eye, I have seen the woods around HSF's compound. I've seen Stucky jerking off his magnificent purple pud of pleasure while commenting and researching articles. I've seen Billy suffering from a back operation. I've been on a rekkie mission with SSS. In the hospital with T4C. No, I wouldn't skip reading comments just because I don't like to waste my time, I'm here to waste time and acquire experiences I couldn't do if I read every reader's digest ever printed.

When somebody posts anonymously, it seems like there is some info missing, like labels on a graph, I am left wondering who can I attribute a comment to. I understand Stuck's displeasure, I'm left wondering when a particularly poignant quote is attributed to "Anonymous".
