Pompous soliloquy explaining how every previous post contributes to an understanding of some recently unearthed apocryphal text in the Middle East (possibly near the site of the yet-to-be-located WMD stash) that proves that the world will end soon – date still being determined by reading chicken entrails.

Poster is chagrined that he accidentally refreshed the page while the reply box was open, but congratulates himself on the accidental timing of posting after poster is being chided for repeating an earlier post.

Accusation of hypocrisy against complaint about other poster’s post count padding, as it is itself a thinly disguised attempt at post count padding, setting up infinite recursive loop of post count padding complaints.

</div>

(From Left Field) With no provocation and no detectable relationship to any previous comment (least of all the OP itself) poster details various foul-smelling and painful bodily growths and injuries. Fails to attach any TMI warnings and avoids spoilers. Appears to delight in causing massive wretching in others.

Laughs uncontrollably – in color and all caps.
