» Hollah Back! from The Republic of T.
Via Roxanne, I've learned that this week is "International Blog Comment Week". So, if you've been quietly lurking in the shadows here (and you know who you are), step out into the light for a sec and give a shout in the comments.... [Read More]

According to Rox, Some guy who calls himself the Heretik says it's National Blog Comment Week and, while I think he's being a bit facetious, why the fuck not? Besides, this post is a placeholder for something I was... [Read More]

I just love that Heretik, though I know he has been known to lurk in disguise now and again, girlfriend.

AAARRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!
Hi Rox
Man, Moamar used to be kind of hot. What happened?

i can't pass up an excuse to delurk. hi!

Hmm, interesting. If they're voiceless, can they truly give a shout?

heretofore "voiceless"

My name is Shiny, and this is my blog comment.

I hope you find it stimulating and provocative.

Lurkless seeking same.

I thought you weren't blogging here anymore. Wait. No, that was me. I wasn't blogging somewhere anymore--but then I was. Modern life--so confusing.

Shields down. Cloaking device deactivated.

I think your spam detector hated my first comment.

Yeah, yeah, OK. Hi.

delurkifying with a caption post nomination.

I haven't been lurking. I prefer to think of it as mingling with humility.

This is Agitprop giving a shout out to Rox Populi for her fine work during International Blog Comment Week.

Well, I haven't said anything in a while. Does that count?

Lurking isn't the same as stalking, is it?

It's not stalking if you have a camera...

Okay, I'm no lurker, but this seems an appropriate enough place to mention I just saw your comment, Rox, over at Yglesias' place: I would like to think that women and men both would be judged, not by the make-up of their chromosomes, but by the content of their character.

LOL. Long has it been since I've read such a dry statement that encapsulated disdain, resignation, incredulity, impatience, matter-of-factness, snark, a touch of arrogance, and a dash of hope all in one. Very nice. Loved it. :)

Hello, there. Consider me delurked, then.

I can't de-lurk, I can only "surface." It is my nature. Thank you for blogging, you give us all hope for greater openness - and the MSM doesn't seem to be carrying a torch for openness anymore, at least not the political kind, unless it's to burn it down.

Hi.

I don't know if I qualify as a lurker since I've commented at least once, but my posting is infrequent to say the least. But I do read most days, commenting when my outrage excedes my ability to contain it...outrage at the idiots, not you of course.

I'm another infrequent commenter rather than a lurker, but I am shouting out as ordered, ma'am.

This is the self-referential sentence that announces my de-lurking. This is the sentence that thanks Roxanne for the inspiring articles and inspired wit. And this is the first sentence of the comment, though it appears to have been misplaced.

No.
