Hey dude. I submitted this link. I'm really sorry if you didn't want it to be here. I just saw the link on Twitter and thought it would be a cool thing to share. I feel awful now knowing that you didn't want it to be here.

Hey, no problem! Please don't feel bad (makes me feel bad :P). I mostly said that because of knowing how HN can respond to jokes. I'm totally good with it though. Thanks for enlightening HN with doge!

Thanks, that's a relief. :)

Congratulations on getting to number 1, anyway.

Hiya! I'm the creator of this. I did not expect this to be here (nor did I especially want it to...). If it isn't painfully obvious, this is a joke, so please don't take it too seriously. Thanks!

I think it's legitimately awesome.

I really want to see a language that does away with even more symbols (like replacing period with "of") - and your use of lulz speak or whatever you want to call it makes the symbol replacements short and accessible.

What's funny about this is that every comment here is calling this useless, yet it's something that's very much in the hacker spirit. Utility is not the end goal of everything.

Well said, I agree.

I got a huge laugh out of this. I love how some of the statements I ended up writing could almost be interpreted as poetry, hilarious poetry.

More to the point: http://www.reddit.com/r/supershibe

Well, that subreddit is written by fans of supershibe, so someone who isn't into it might not be interested in what they have to say. Google Trends is already a trusted source for many.

Ok....why? And please don't replay "Why not?"

Why build it? Because it appealed to the author, perhaps in a way you can't understand.

Why share it? From the comments, I understand that it was shared by someone else, and the original creator didn't intend for it to be put on HN.

Why judge it? That's the question I'm trying to figure out while reading this thread.

Oh I think I just got it.

doge script uses words from that doge meme like "wow".

Whoosh over my head.
