HN Comment Golf

was bored in shower. started thinking about code golf*. thought maybe HN would like to have some fun as the week winds down?

first comment in thread, paste some text.

subsequent thread comments, try to shorten the posted text without diluting the meaning too excessively. explain what you did if you feel it is needed.

give votes to whoever you think deserves it, for whatever reason.

pretty simple.
