LAST COMMENT
Tought assignment this week. Find the comment that made Evil Glenn snap.
Well, I had to poke around the Google cache for a while, but I finally found the last date where Instapundit contained comments. Naturally there were about 600 entries, but I think I narrowed it down to a few likely candidates.
Take, for example this entry:
Why do Koreans eat dogs? That's just sick. I'm glad that sort of thing doesn't happen in America.
Indeed.
Which had this comment:
Why are you insulting Koreans? Maybe they're onto something. I mean, have you ever even tasted a dog? Maybe they're yummy. You don't have to eat the whole thing. Just take one little bite and report back. You could even chop it up really fine... or something.
FJ
Or this one:
Although I support President Bush, I still think Communism is a bigger threat than terrorism.
Indeed.
Which had this comment:
All you ever do is bash Commies on your site. Have you ever even read the Communist Manifesto? Why don't you just read one little paragraph from Mao's Little Red Book. You'd be surprised how much you two actually have in common. Who knows? You might actually grow to love him someday.
FJ
Or this one:
I love the homeless. Call them what you will: tramps, bums, hobos, drifters, etc. All I know is that the happiest moments of my life are spent volunteering at the local soup kitchen.
Indeed.
Which had this comment:
Are you nuts? Those filthy scumbags are a pestilence on American society! The world would be a better place if every last one of them were brutally murdered with a hammer.
FJ
Or this one:
I was forced to watch Saturday Night Fever last night. I tell ya, it makes me glad to have given up dancing.
Indeed.
Which had this comment:
I agree. Disco is retarded. But dancing in the 80's was much better. I remember doing this one dance called the Robot. Those jerky moves send a strange sensation through your body. It's like having spiders in your underwear, but somehow it's still quite... stimulating.
FJ
Or possibly this one:
I'm proud to be a Christian. I don't see how anyone could ever worship anything but the one true God.
Indeed.
Which had this comment:
Got Satan?
FJ
So I really don't know what could have triggered Glenn's slide into evil. However, there was one last post. It seemed completely unrelated, but I'll reproduce it here anyway:
I can feel the darkness growing within me. Foul urges take command of my spirit, and my ability to resist is failing fast. It occurs to me how much power I possess, sitting atop the Ecosystem. Why shouldn't I use it for my own benefit? I mean, it's not like anyone has the power to stop me... Yes, I shall let my evil grow and consume the blogosphere. MUAHAHAHAHA!
Indeed.
Followed by the last three comments I found at Instapundit:
You vile, contemptable bastard! You can't just go around crushing other bloggers like bugs! Your evil must be stopped!
FJ
Shut up, vermin! [POW!]
Glenn
OW! You punched me! That does it! I'm raising an army to put an end to your atrocities!
INSTAPUNDO DELENDA EST!
FJ
That exchange took place many months ago. Since then, Evil Glenn's foul activites have been both numerous and well-documented. It's no use trying to figure out the why & wherefore at this point. The only thing left to do is finish the job we've started, quickly and decisively, without hesitation or mercy.
To arms, fellow bloggers, to arms!
INSTAPUNDO DELENDA EST!
