Prolagus commented on the word remarkable link

This comment will be an attempt to demonstrate my understanding of your comment while simultaneously attempting to set up a joke that won't make any sense unless you've read the article and won't be funny once you have.

Prolagus commented on the word remarkable link

chained_bear commented on the word remarkable link
Whereupon I chime in, late as usual, with something completely unrelated based on personal experience, and loaded with qualifiers so as to avoid possibly maybe someday offending someone who might read this comment, though it will (usually) kill the thread.

ruzuzu commented on the word remarkable link
This comment is an attempt to thwart the previous comment's thread-killing qualities by invoking fake umbrage, throwing fufluns, or teasing bilby.

reesetee commented on the word remarkable link
And at this point, I saunter in with a comment that would have been pertinent, say, five days ago, somewhere between Prolagus' comment about keeping ruzuzu's joke going and chained's comment about killing threads, and then I hand out cupcakes and vanish.
Then I make a joke about not handing out vanish.

ruzuzu commented on the word remarkable link
This comment finally explains, in detail, how to make that little heart symbol.
