By the time I got to your comment, I had forgotten about her legs.

I've said it somewhere where someone may have have seen, but I'll say it again here because you're likely to listen: A return of the "clear notifications" function would be useful.

Though this card from the FAQ may be a little out of date because curation seemed to have become less of a factor with version 2.0, it still has some relevant points about how threads can move up the featured ladder. After playing with it on Gawker through the various incarnations, I really don't know how some burners…

As a user, my interpretation has been that notifications are cookie-based.

After a lot of testing with the previous iterations on Gawker, I can say with a lot of certainty that the only way being early with a comment is a factor in the order is because it may get more or "better" replies. At least under 1.0 and 2.0, there was supposedly a "recency" factor and I've seen newer comments…

Playboy has actually had a great literary history.

Thanks for the added info. I hope that in addition to getting a haircut and community service, the Price McDonald's has banned these girls from the playground. If they're too old to be entertained by ballpits, tubes and slides, they don't need to be there.

That's actually a really good question, but it could also be explained away. There's a couple of where-was-the-mother guesses in another thread, perhaps you'd like to add your own.

Actually, I originally had the thing taking place in the dining area. In my first scenario, the eleven and thirteen year old were sitting in a booth and the toddler, who was waiting for her mother to get off work was staring at them, so they offered her some french fries.

Again, I don't do the play structures and because four out of five of us are vegetarians, we only occasionally use the drive-thru for their ice creams to pay back for using the restroom.

I don't know how many 13 year olds generally play in the McDonald's playground and for her to have asked for scissors, she'd most likely had to have gone to the counter, then the leave the place and walk across the parking lot to a dollar store, return. That's why I guessed that the mother may have been working at the…

Not only was the toddler unattended, but it was unattended enough for the girls to have asked for scissors, been refused and then they went to a dollar store to purchase a pair.

$13,000 a week for twelve weeks is only $156k and the Times says the channel is only one part of her buy, so her deal may also include commercials during other shows.

Murray and Murphy are probably king and I thought about including Marty Short, but I'd say that in terms of movie success, he'd rank below those who I named. As would Chris Rock, Rob Schneider, David Spade, Dana Carvey, Harry Shearer, Michael McKean, Anthony Michael Hall and all of the other cast members. (Though…

I had forgot about Mike Myers.

No Hasselhoff, but over the past couple of weeks, Kotaku has had Pokemon covered.

I don't know because I've never done an elaborate troll, but I'd consider this post and the attention it garners as one form of pay-off and another would be some kind of response from Mr. Bieber, which this post could help prompt.

Oh, I see the tweet made some kind of retweet list and that's probably how it was found.

I also thought maybe this was a fake troll, possibly somebody's friend because there's no hat-tip and I hope the Jezebel bloggers aren't following random eleven year-old Bieber fans, but if it is a fake troll... I've scrolled back to March and it keeps going. That seems like a long time to keep up a one-note act, if…

I'm saying that as the odds of getting caught increase, the chance of someone doing it decrease.
