commANNEdments

Thou shalt not read before you any comment, or any likeness of a comment that is on YouTube with the thumbs up, or that is to any news story beneath, or that is in boxes under the entertainment websites, even though they be Salon and thinkest thou that it is a fine idea. Thou shalt not suffer to cast thine eyes upon them, nor reply to them: for I AM YOUR PLAIN COMMON SENSE, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that waste their time on such stupid, stupid pursuits.

Thou shalt not argue with strangers in comment threads, nay not even the friends of friends on the book of faces, for verily every argument which is in a comment thread is both a ruination of the original post and a waste of thine own time, and thou knowest better.

Thou shalt not open the emails late at night from those that annoyest thou, for thou hast made clear that one does not suffer fools gladly; therefore let not thyself be the biggest fool.
