It means we all have to watch Toddlers and Tiaras all the time.

The what?

Lookit this motherfucker with his fancy words.

ALREADY NAKED

But in a self-selecting community that's already intelligent and articulate, perhaps the downvote will be used simply to nudge down the trolls and haters who've come here only to…

It's "Dis-cuse." Rhymes with "J'accuse."

Okay, but - well, first off, why the fuck am I defending Disqus? I'm the fucking supervillain here. - anyway, and second, I hated the whole next page thing and then you couldn't see the context to your replies so all you got was, like, "ElDan says: 'Wow, who let this fuckin' shmoe in here?'" and you're like but which…

Flagged for suggesting I grow the fuck up, which I am strongly against.
And when the system changes, I'm gonna come back and downvote this, too. And then Jordo's gonna kill a kitten.

Excellent gimmick account.

Yeah, I tried butt sex once too.

How do you know how many likes you have? Are you…are you making little marks on your walls every time you get one, and now your whole bedroom is covered with little scratches? That's it, isn't it?

Ha HA!

I like that feature too, it's really easy to pick out the funniest comments this way.
