My comment does technically have correct grammar and stand on its own as a valid criticism of your comment, which to me is what makes it especially funny. Everybody posting "wow" as a response to you... not so much.

First off: deleted_account is not my username, you were not responding to my comment. Second: The sentence "I am." technically has correct grammar, but doesn't serve the benefit of anybody reading HN. As does this recently similar comment with many downvotes: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7104994 You should have just hit the downvote or flag button if you thought that OPs comment was truly cynical. How exactly…

"You should have just hit the downvote"...pot, meet kettle.

Just imagine how much more time could be devoted to discussion about how many iPhones does the founder of Path really have.

And yet every day HN is filled with people talking about the things that they like to talk about, and having a nice time doing so, all in their own little space here on this site. For the most part, users like to keep this place intelligent and spam-free. Want to spam Doge-related comments? I can only imagine that that is what /r/Dogecoin is for. Why bring it here?

Right, but what if people want to talk about doge?

Is there a place to trade bitcoins for dogecoins?

https://github.com/ummjackson/dogecoin-resources#exchanges If you are feeling generous, my referral link from Cryptsy (largest exchange by volume): https://www.cryptsy.com/users/register?refid=25234

Thanks. I just signed up. But my deposit isn't going through.

I'm trying to make a support request, but any idea what goes into the "requester" field on the support request?

OK, I guess the requester field is for my email address? Seems weird since they already have it.

Then talk about Doge. Don't spam "so wow!" sixteen-dozen times.

One cannot hit the downvote button on replies made to one's own comments.

That's a large part of talking about doge though.

Then I don't really know what to tell you. It sounds to me like "talking about Doge" is a euphemism for "spamming".

True, good point. Still, I'm not sure it's a net benefit to kick off a sizable subtree debating the merits of a two-word comment. It might be considered an investment in future comment quality, but downvoting all the meme comments that we are able to is probably as effective.

Personally, as long as it's restricted to articles about dogecoin I don't find it annoying, though I wouldn't want it to spread. Clearly your mileage varies.
