Hacker News Reader

There must be a dozen or two "100% of the time" comments. Collect them all and make a mock/parody HN thread.

* Cryptocurrency

* Fiat currency

* Economics is not a real science

* I understand what the author is trying to say, but I don't like how he says it

* I didn't read the piece, but website that published it is problematic

* The title is clickbait, and I'm unaware of the concept of newspaper headlines

Well, yes, but to be honest - very often what they have to say is worthwhile even if you've read the piece. :-P

I tried skimming it and to me it wasn't too different from what POMO[1] might have come up with if it had been set up to generate a lot denser text.

So what? The headline is dumb. Nothing wrong with pointing that out and saying why.

The fact that you say you read the article and this attack was your best comment... well I’d say one of these comments is basically worthless and it’s not the guy who pointed out the problem with the title.

Furthermore, a lot of people go to the comments first for a variety of reasons. Nothing wrong with that either.
