That’s what I must conclude from his recent post which is the outline for my entire damned blog. I may have to mockingly and provocatively respond, followed by promises of escalation of further actions of an obnoxious nature, culminating in outrageous climax that will trigger denunciations and many letters to the editor.

This comment INSISTS that the post author just DOESN’T UNDERSTAND the issue despite the fact that THE BLOG AUTHOR has spent YEARS!!!! studying the topic at hand, while the comment author READ A BOOK by either an actor, a PRIEST, or DEEPAK CHOPRA which PROVES that the blog author SHOULD BE ARRESTED or DEPORTED and INSISTS that the comment author’s FREE SPEECH IS VIOLATED by anyone who disagrees, calls the post author a moron, questions the paternity of the previous commenter, DEMANDS ACKNOWLEDGMENT THAT JESUS LOVES YOU and that YOU WILL BURN IN HELL if you don’t accept him into your HEART (and possibly your ANAL CAVITY), and the blog author is just like HITLER!!!!ONE!!! It pretty much goes on like that for what should be ten PAGES of text with neither line break nor ONE BIT of sense, but I just don’t have the stamina to replicate that level of horseshit. Sorry.
It then ends with “I forgive you” and misspells the blog author’s name, patronizingly declaring that the comment author will pray for you and melodramatically declares that the comment author will never return to this blog again. Ever. Right after the next three comments.

Smoggy Batzrubble OM4Jesus says
This brief opinion piece employs archaic Latinisms and semi-redundant polysyllabic words in an attempt to appear to be a sophisticate who has benefited from close acquaintance with the Higher Education and thus conceal the truth that he (always a ‘he’) is a socially deficient, Christian home-schooled, narrow-minded autodidact. In other words, the comment is the work of just another godbotting troll who doesn’t know enough to know how ignorant he is.

steve.wevets says
This comment begins with the reasonable sound bite thanking the blogger for his thoughtful response elucidating his viewpoint. It segues into a grammatically correct, yet substantially unsatisfying generality.
In the second paragraph, maintaining the complexity of speech that mimics highbrow learning and excessive politeness, this commenter nevertheless sneaks in a reference to the ontological proof of God, and without irony, to the admirability of Bill Dembski’s honor in practical debate.
Just to cap it all off, arrogantly pretending that this commenter has not blatantly trolled, the comment ends with a kind word, that could also be read as a very backhanded compliment. Most readers will have realized the idiocy of the second paragraph, and so this commenter wastes his time on extra verbiage.

Jesus Loves me this I know,
For the Bible tells me so.
Father Patrick loves me too,
And exhorts me not to screw:
“You must be pure” he says to me,
As he gives my balls a squeeze.
And thus upon his knee I sit,
And though he prods me where I shit,
I’ve learned that God’s my only friend,
And gladly take it in the end.
My way may be hard, dark and deep,
And I may be a simple sheep,
But Father Paddy’s there for me,
And for my little sister Fee.

The evolutionist also have tough time explaining the origin of the universe. As laid out it in Genesis[1] we know that God was responsible for the creation of mankind. Evolutionists however would have you believe that complex structures such as the eye merely popped into existence randmomly [2]. We Christians know that everything came into being by the divine hand of the Lord. ha ha! no, there no proof for evolution whatsoeevr and it just a religion by evolutionists that worships the three gods of darwin, dawkins and pz meyers. the articles of faith of this religioin is taht everything just came about randomly.. i don’t have that much faith to be an athiest!!

This comment claims to have almost been swayed by all of the previous arguments until the arrival of the pottymouth in #215, who ruined it.
Gyeong Hwa Pak, the Pikachu of Anthropology says
This comment says “Nice Site!.”
Nerd of Redhead, OM says
This comment says it is snowing in Chiwaukee.
Smoggy Batzrubble OM4Jesus says
This comment berates the wowser at 217 for his or her ridiculous sensitivity to a bit of robust Anglo-Saxon when the real obscenities in the world are delivered by the smooth talkers in religion and politics, viz.: ‘if you can’t handle a a few spicy phrases you should fuck off and fellate a camel or something!’
atomjack says
This commenter is…speechless.
KZT says
This comment Is.
RamblinDude says
This comment isn’t very good, so the commenter decided not to post it.
Feynmaniac says
This comment is about all comments which aren’t about themselves.

This comment accuses #222 of intellectual dishonesty. Moron.
skeptical scientist says
I listened to a song like this once – a self-descriptive love song that parodied your typical love song in the same fashion – but I can’t remember the title, author, or enough of the lyrics to Google it. Now it’s really bugging me. Does anyone know what I’m talking about, and, if so, can you help me?
Lynna, OM says
This comment is from a camel expecting fellatio.
JBabs073 says
This comment mentions the vast amount of copying of originally funny comments from the blog being linked to by this blog’s author, and how not as funny they are posted on this blog. Especially since said comments are likely not posted by the same people as the other one, and are likely made by people trying to steal some credit for someone else’s idea.
This comment then continues with a call to PZ Myers to come back to the U of M Twin Cities for another lecture + Q&A, since all this posting about leaving us behind for California is making us sad.
atomjack says
This sentience claims it it is aware.
Asbestopluma says
This commentor wants to comment on how silly all of this has gotten, but hasn’t the nerve to post anything and instead sits reading the previous posts in silence.
otrame says
This comment is very very concerned. At great length. With great condescension.
folderol says
This comment makes the mandatory Monty Python reference. Ni.
Nerd of Redhead, OM says
This comment is bored out of it’s gourd. Z-z-z-z-z-z.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment misspells multiple words to maximum annoyance. It is sponsored by “distain,” “hypocracy” and “devine.” Special guest appearance by “conscious,” who will be playing the role of “conscience” on this week’s episode.
pcarini says
This comment is from a long time reader, first time poster.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
No, it is not, since I recognize your name. Come on, admit it, you just wanted to be all talk-radio caller and say to PZ, “Oh, um, thanks so much for taking my comment!”
RickR says
This comment arrives late, and suffering a crippling wave of comment envy leaving the commenter momentarily speechless, so instead, quietly suggests oral sex.
aratina cage of the OM says
This comment reminisces about Divine.
andrewblairesch says
This comment…
Is my very first one. Hello Pharyngulites!
Gyeong Hwa Pak, the Pikachu of Anthropology says
This comment notes that Josh, Official SpokesGay should be posting with “This comment. . .”
Way to break the chain Josh, lol.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment wishes to kill everyone now, condone first degree murder, and advocate cannibalism. It also wishes you to eat shit, and to tell you that filth is its politics, and filth is its life.
Finally, this comment wants you to know it loves the taste of hot, freshly killed blood.
RickR says
^^This comment^^
jivlain says
This comment defends accomodationism, citing a Youtube video, which just turns out to be a Rickroll (ignoring the fact that that ended some time ago).
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment wishes Gyeong Hwa Pak to know that that he can eat shit for all I care, or eat anything you like, or do anything that you like. Just don’t assume that I want to know your troubles.
RickR says
This comment wishes to complain that Josh stole my next “Pink Flamingos” quote.
Bitch.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment wishes to remind RickR, Gyeong Pak, and Aratina Cage, that it is a busy woman with a full day’s work ahead of it, and to please remove yourself from its office.
Dust says
Posts silly ridiculous comment.
*ducks*
Gyeong Hwa Pak, the Pikachu of Anthropology says
This comment is scared now. *runs off to never ending thread and Chem notes.
coughlanbrianm says
This comment wonders why Professor Meyer has to be so mean to catholics, and in a flush of white hot fatwa envy, erroneously bets Professor Meyer “wouldn’t dare say the same things about moslems”.
Dust says
You are reading a comment that is not wearing any pants.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment wishes everyone could see how hard it is cackling in delight that its fellow Pharyngulites are savvy enough to engage in a duel of John Waters quotations, and how sad it is that Pikachu still needs to be initiated into The Glory That is Divine.
It also reminds you that, along with Chiclet and Concetta, it still robs houses.
RickR says
This comment wishes to opine that it wouldn’t suck Josh’s dick if it was suffocating, and there was oxygen in his balls.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment wishes to ask RickR if he wants another whipping with that car arial? It’s right in that closet, don’t forget.
aratina cage of the OM says
This comment is filled with joy over comment #242 and ends with a smiley face.
Linnea says
This comment links to a song.
Gyeong Hwa Pak, the Pikachu of Anthropology says
This comment shows typical noob confusion.
*fails at identifying dichromate’s charge.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment is pregnant, and it wants money.
Linnea says
This comment links to a blog which contains a graphic representation of the number of posts in this thread, and related previous threads.
RickR says
This comment wants to tell Josh to aim it the other way then, Josh. You know how it detests organs. Beauty has absolutely nothing to do with that WORD, that THING you have hanging there like an obscene pickle. Spare it your anatomy.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment is fucking dying.
RickR says
*This comment vomits on Josh*
I’m sorry…. I been drinking.
pcarini says
This comment is a poor attempt a hiding its true purpose: which is to name-drop a certain prestigious high school the commenter attended.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment will overlook RickR’s admittedly tittilating indiscretions, and move right on to a marriage proposal. Will you be this comment’s Egg Man?
Eggs. Eggs. Oh God, God.
RickR says
This comment wishes to apologize to Josh, and buys him a pair of cha-cha heels.
yolande says
This comment abstains.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment, like nice girls, doesn’t wear cha-cha heels.
yolande says
This comment wants to know why not?
RickR says
This comment advises Josh to just get his hair done. That what this comment always does when it gets depressed.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
Because this comment does not wish to be sent to a Home for Girls.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment thanks RickR for the advice, but notes that it failed the audition for The Lipstick Beauty Salon. This comment, shamefully, was disqualified and sent to Mr. Ray’s Wig World.
RickR says
This comment wishes to remind Josh that he can’t go to school because it said so. It won’t have him nagging it for lunch money and whining for help on his homework. There is no need to know about presidents, wars, numbers or science. Just listen to it and he’ll learn. And no little friends over here, repeating rhymes, asking flippant questions, and talking in those nagging baby voices. Can’t he just sit here and look out into the air? Isn’t that enough? Does he always have to badger it for attention?
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment apologizes to the other Pharyngulites, for whom this quote-off must be getting tedious. It notes, however, that it can go all night, and that no man, woman, or beast can win at this game with this comment. This comment, you see, is hopped up on little mascara brushes and liquid eyeliner (it had some orally earlier).
S Petersen says
This comment inserts an earworm, something about
narwhals, narwhals, swimming in the ocean,
causing a commotion cuz they are so awesome….
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment is not interested in hearing about Presidents, numbers, wars, or science. But it must say, in all honesty, that it wishes you could see it guffawing so hard it’s spilling expensive wine out of its nose, and wondering why it never encounters such top quality fellow comments in its usual social venues. It is most supremely pleased, this comment.
It also notes that its friend Chiclet is glad she had an abortion.
yolande says
This comment sees no scientific (or otherwise) advantage of administering liquid eyeliner orally.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment reminds you that eyeliner taken internally heightens one’s beauty awareness.
Doktor Zoom says
This comment pedantically points out that this sort of thing isn’t particularly original.
This comment also wonders if this is the song that #227 was were thinking of.
This comment closes by admitting that the commenter is a total sucker for this sort of thing, really, but resists the urge to look up and link to the “This American Life” segment that ALSO does more or less the same thing.
Doktor Zoom says
This comment notes a simple proofreading error that I should have caught before clicking “submit” for #278, and insists that I’m usually much more articulate, really.
Coran says
This comment is the comment from a very occasional commenter who has no commendable comment.
RickR says
This comment wishes to sing.
*clears throat*
“Nothing could be finer
than to have enough eyeliner
in the morrrrr-or-orrrr-nin’…”
yolande says
This comment wonders what that terrible noise was.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment wishes to sing:
“Nothing could be sweeter than my sweetie when I eat her in the moooorning.”
This comment wishes to disclaim any accusations of heterosexuality. The reader is solely responsible for whatever prurient and unnatural interpretation he/she brings to this artistic performance.
Mainly, this comment is engaged in Battle to the Death with RickR, which it finds most exhausting. If RickR would simply capitulate, and agree to marry this comment, we could all conclude this exhausting display.
~Pharyngulette~ says
This comment haughtily and snarkily suggests that two other recent commenters “get a room, already, you two”, as if there was a worldwide shortage of blog post stationery. It then goes back to its usual lurkdom.
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment agrees. It is exhausted from battling for Supreme Cult Movie Dominance. I must retire-and regroup-to live for another day. Mwah-ha-ha-ha-ha.
RickR says
This comment wishes to counter Josh’s demand for capitulation with the suggestion of a truce. In the Motel 6 on State Road 47. And if only if ~Pharyngulette~ can watch.
Menyambal says
This comment os writtern om the dark bu spmepne wjp is jpt weru good ar toucjtypom
Josh, Official SpokesGay says
This comment says only: Rowr.
~Pharyngulette~ says
This comment makes a growling noise in its throat (for reasons only it knows) and states its willingness to make that sacrifice… if only for the sake of the science.
~Pharyngulette~ says
This comment trebles its usual pharyngular output by sing-songing “Josh and RickR in a tree!” and sighing wistfully.
blf says
GOATS ON FIRE!
WowbaggerOM says
This comment asks the vital question: if you can comment in this thread, why can you still comment in the old threads?
Gordy says
This comment repeats a point made earlier and far more eloquently by someone else, but the commenter is unaware of this because he got tired of reading the comments around #30 or so and just couldn’t wait to have his say.
bastion of sass says
This comment asks what a Poe is.
~Pharyngulette~ says
This comment suggests a reference to either male or female circumcision, thereby sending the comments over 1000.
bastion of sass says
This comment begins, I don’t mean to insult you, but…and then goes on to say something terribly insulting.
bastion of sass says
This comment rants about the fact that all you atheists sound so angry, so you must be wrong about not believing in God, and believing in Darwinism and Dawkins.
dannystevens.myopenid.com says
This comment notes that #95 is incorrect AND THEN CONTINUES TO SHOUT A NON-SEQUITUR. This sentence in this comment then indicates the commenter is non-plussed by the failure of other commenters to understand this.
WowbaggerOM says
This comment argues that the word ‘comment’ doesn’t mean what you think it means, and the fact that people can’t agree on what the word ‘comment’ means is evidence that the Christian god (and only the Christian god) exists.
dannystevens.myopenid.com says
This comment indicates that I am “one of you”. This comment then indicates I am concerned about part of what we stand for. This comment leads to a sinking feeling that you are about to get concern trolled.
This sentence proves that you are being concern trolled and that the quote given is an incorrectly attributed quote mine. This sentence shows that I don’t know how to logically structure an argument. This sentence shows that I think I have concluded wittily but leaves your head spinning at my utter fucktardedness.
Miki Z says
このコメントはより多くの言語を話さないための読者を欺く。Quoique ce commentaire ait été mal traduit par un traducteur automatisé. This comment congratulates itself on its sophistication.
Miki Z says
This comment bemoans the early death of the thread.
Miki Z says
This comment complains that more than 300 posts is too long for such a trivial topic. This comment will be reloaded dozens of times while its author waits for a reply.
Vole says
This comment racks its brains trying to think where Chris Clarke might have got the idea from, and eventually speculates diffidently that Douglas R Hofstadter might have had something to do with it. It continues with a cliche about the lack of novelty in the vicinity of the local star. It ends in spectacular anticlimax.
mappamundi says
This comment arrived at the internet meme party far too late to be in any way interesting or amusing.
ilgreven says
Repetition of the title of the song.
Incredulous stares at computer screens, people trying to figure out what the heck this guy’s talking about.

Monkey's Uncle says
This comment pastes a comment they posted from the blog originally linked to, in a sickeningly ingratiating attempt to prove that the commenter has a wry sense of humour.
This comment also also is the first attempt at html coding on a comment. w00t!
Walton says
This comment repeats the previous comment, while linking to a Turkish spam site in the header. It is then copied verbatim on about 300 other random threads.
Walton says
This comment notes that Chuck Norris doesn’t read incendiary blog posts. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants.
Walton says
This comment wins teh internet.
Stephen Wells says
This comment expresses bafflement and terror over the number of comments in this thread, and indeed in several other threads.
negentropyeater says
The author of this comment would like to comment first on the comment that claimed it would reload itself dozens of times if it doesn’t get any reply. The author of this comment would like the author of the above mentionned comment to note that this comment is not a reply to said comment and questions the author of said comment on his willingness to do what he pretended to do with his comment.
The author of this comment would like to conclude this comment by noting that unlike most comments in this thread his comment does not start with “this comment” and that he generally agrees with the first part of the comment that failed to repeat itself dozens of time despite the fact that he also felt necessary to add a comment that he hopes has been sufficiently pompous and boring not to be an O/T on this thread.
dexitroboper says
This comment insults several regular posters, their ancestors for several generations, their siblings and their lovers, then claims it was “just a joke”
Miki Z says
This author has already done so and only comments to point out the vacuity of the quoted reply. This author further suggests that that author will lack sufficient self-control to avoid replying. This author will taunt that author either way. In the coming days, this author will periodically post in the vain hope of getting hits on this author’s 3-post blog.
Cath the Canberra Cook says
This comment returns to the vexed question of bacon, and why there isn’t enough of it in the thread to cover all the lesbians.
Rorschach says
This comment argues that in evolutionary psychology the invention of bacon was a tool to push male domination in hunter gatherer societies.
Stephen Wells says
This comment attempts to calculate the amount of bacon required to cover a lesbian, but as it is written by a physicist it assumes a spherical lesbian and is only correct to an order of magnitude.
Mr Jack says
FISH!
(That is really weird.
I was thinking “I’m going to post something that doesn’t start with ‘this comment…'”
I started to scroll down, to get to the leave a comment button.
As I did that, I thought “what should my comment be? How about ‘FISH!'”
I then momentarily stopped, and saw #162.
That was awesome.)
boygenius says
This comment bemoans the unfortunate reality that there are no lesbians nor bacon in its immediate vicinity.
boygenius says
This comment bemoans the unfortunate reality that the son of a Reading TeacherTM failed to properly utilize the word “neither” in its previous comment.
dexitroboper says
This comment describes all previous comments as being examples of SIWOTI syndrome.
boygenius says
This comment really, really wants to know why the letter “v” is always shorter than all the other letters on this and other sites?

This author makes the same suggestion about that author and admits to lacking sufficient self-control for having replied to that author.
Deen says
This comment is posted from a different timezone, and therefore missed all the fun already, but wants to chime in anyway.
John Morales says
This comment haughtily declares this comment thread puerile and exhorts commenters to grow up and stop wasting their time here.
negentropyeater says
This comment wanted to make a prediction about the number of comments this thread would end up having, but refrained in doing so.
Gordy says
This comment points out that we don’t refrain “in” doing things, we refrain “from” doing them (although many of us don’t so perhaps more of us should).
badgersdaughter says
This post is just to say No, wait, I did that one already in the burning goats thread, didn’t I….
John Morales says
This comment irrelevantly points out that many singers in fact refrain in doing so, purely to be contrary.
Carlie says
This comment exasperatedly states that libertarianism would solve all of these problems, thereby spawning another hundred comments about how wrong it is.
MetzO'Magic says
This comment points out the fact that blockquote fail (and subsequent apologies for same) are completely unnecessary, if only people would take a few seconds to proof-read their posts with the fscking Preview button!
This commenter’s concern will be duly noted by a subsequent poster.
RickR says
This comment snickers
MetzO'Magic says
This comment snickers back, because the use of ‘fscking’ was intentional :-)
RickR says
This comment meta-snickers because it was in on the joke.

This comments notes on the number of comments posted since the commenter went to bed, bemoans the lack of time to read them all, and posts a new one anyway.

Antiochus Epiphanes says

KOPD42 says
This comment expresses surprise at how long the “this comment” thread has gone on.

Thanks Doktor Zoom, that’s the one.

Believe it or not, this commenter was unaware of the origins of fsck, and found that old joke to be hilarious. Thank you.

This comment thinks #278 may have missed it with regards to answering the comment at #227 and wonders if #227 is actually thinkinf of This Song. This comment slinks away smugly.

AWSOME!!!
Butch Pansy says
This comment thanks the comment @319 for finally eliciting a real-life lol, and notes that it’s a good thing for my keyboard that my mouth was empty. This comment anticipates offers to fill its mouth with the sexual organs of other commenters.
David Marjanović says
This comment explores boring new ways of representing way excessive amounts of laughter typographically. Most of them are very repetitive.
It then goes on to cite some fairly obscure and marginally relevant saying from a TV series or comic or something.
Paul W. says
This comment demands a replacement irony meter, and a new keyboard.
Paul W. says
This comment hastily retracts the those demands, acknowledges that the irony meter must have been broken already, apologizes profusely, and slinks away.
Athena says
This comment is sniny.
tsg says
This comment misses an in-joke and attempts to correct it in a condescending and failed attempt at humor.
MonkeyDeathcar says
This comment isn’t the greatest comment in the thread. This comment is a tribute to the greatest comment in the tread.
David Marjanović says
This comment reveals shitless fear of teh ebil homersexual agenda. It goes on to point out there has even been a comment in this thread that actively and explicitly promotes it!
smartbrainus says
This comment notices the meta-meme between this post’s comments and the linked post’s, and also nominates PZ Myers to a poll he is not part of. Ideally one with women. Since he looks good photoshopped with a dress.
apostrophobia says
This comment contains grammar pedantry and points out comment 349’s (and another one, buried earlier) misuse of the contraction “it’s” for the possessive “its.” This commenter apologizes for the pedantry but cannot help itself.
otrame says
This comment worries that all the excitement on this tread has slowed the progress on the endless thread and accuses someone non-specific but probably religious of doing it on purpose.
Janine, Mistress Of Foul Mouth Abuse, OM says
This comment is very confused. This comment wonders if a homersexual is someone who is attracted to homers, be it the blind poet, people routing for the home team or Simpson.
Kausik Datta says
This comment reveals the cluelessness of this commenter about this entire string of “this comment…” comments.

sasqwatch says
This comment whines about the joke getting so old that it’s like beating a dead horse and ironically, in so doing, beats the dead horse yet another time.
Rorschach says
This comment remarks on the fact that PZ Myers posts comments on his blog at 3 am. The comment then goes on to point out the effect of trips to California on middle-aged men whose Trophy Wife’s are stuck in a blizzard with Lutheran ministers.
The commenter then ducks and runs.
;)
neon-elf.myopenid.com says
This comment is REALLY late to the party because the poster only has email access at work and is a shift worker. However because they haven’t posted for several days, they must put their two cents in even though the boat has long sailed.

This is the closing comment for this thread.
Vadjong says
However, the following comments want to have the last word.
Carlie says
This comment doesn’t care that the comments were closed, because it needs to take comment #393 and smack it upside the head.
Owlmirror says
This comment comes in days after every other commenter has moved on, copies some of the text of a prior comment and pastes it in, and has a URL pointing from the commenter’s name to a website that sells some product that the commenter desperately wants you to buy.
Owlmirror says
This comment, noting the previous comment in the sidebar, comes to the thread, ignores the blatant and obvious spam of the comment just prior, but takes angry issue with one of the previous comments above, and leaves a long harangue as a reply.
Dania says
This comment notes the spammish nature of #399 and asks PZ to ban its author.
