Good find, whitey. Looks like a great place for wanna-be Onion writers. And, sorry, but when I saw your handle, I just couldn't help myself: "Hey, Whitey, where's your hat?"

How... Farkian. Hmm, first post. Hope you stay and contribute, because, erm... I don't know, I'm a suspicious fellow.

because, erm... that's the flavour of post some would create a new account so they could self link. hmmmm.

d'oh. that'd be ...someone would create.... nonetheless, it does seem farkian, it does seem worth a look. and it does have the whiff of self linking je ne sais quoi.

.. This is too funny. Guerilla marketing and soon a cry to "Kill Whitey".

People just aren't even trying anymore. Damn Whitey! Damn you, damn the broccoli, and damn the Wright Brothers!

smells like a self link to me. I'm surprised this link is still here.

Do we not require a certain amount of comments before someone can make a front-page post? Should we?

posted by Ufez Jones at 09:52 AM on November 04, 2003

We should.

that's brilliant. No idea on how to enforce it, but the common denominator is some newby registers, then posts a self-link.

Gee ... what a subtle self-link.
