Hahahahahah hahhaha ahhah hah. Lol.

I'm sorry, I just can't help myself. This cultural tendency toward naming everything you prefer as a right is just... It's hilarious to the extent it's not just sad. I'm willing to give the author the benefit of the doubt that it was just hyperbole. In which case, bravo.

That was the exact point when I decided this article was a waste of time. What a ridiculous statement. Even if it was meant to be comedic hyperbole, the effect is that it's impossible to take seriously anything else the author has to say.

Well I suppose "Hahahahahah hahhaha ahhah hah. Lol" is a better example of the kind thought-provoking serious writing one should aspire to consume.

Yeah I'm not sure whether to flag the comment as an unconstructive personal attack on the author or if it's just within the lines of what we like to see in this community.

If it's marginal enough to give you pause for more than a few seconds, down-vote it. If HN becomes too dry and technical there's always Reddit...

To be fair, the comment included more significant content than that (unnecessary) outburst.
