.... And still counting. I made a comment on Tom’s Car Buying article about Outrageous Stories from Dealership Employees that was shared to the front page. Usually this ends up being a shit show (only got 2 negative comment responses). You want to know what that comment was? Here ya go:

They have those on Kitchenette over at Jezebel. They are fantastic.

This was in response to EL_ULY comments about restaurant stories next. Who would have thought.

If someone had enough time they could go through all the day’s articles and pic a COTD based on stars.

Then again some articles get much more exposure than others...

The thing is, on Jezebel, it seems like you can just comment “this is cool” or something equally meaningless and get 497 stars. Their commentariat works differently than Jalop.

Thats why I found it strange. I usually comment something meaningful that has to do with the article on the FP and it either gets ignored or the trolls come out in force. Here I commented something that didn’t have anything to do with the article and it now has 107 likes. DAFUQ?

And it was kind of a snarky comment too…I’m surprised I didn’t get hate.
