Shomi/Scrolling through Noise

Shomi - Faulty Assumption - I always do (as does everyone here must) use the "Submit a comment on this item" hyperlink to comment here. I think what you MEANT to say was, I should check the "Mark my comment as a response to..." box. I choose NOT to check that box sometimes, like when my comment is NOT a reply to another user's comment (b/c I choose to address them as a whole, their nonsense, their hypocrisy, etc. about the subject matter of this forum). OR, sometimes I don't check the reply box b/c I choose to put my comment at the top of the thread, even though it IS a direct reply to their comment, so that everyone will see it, including the people who visit this forum but do not post comments but just read them. There must be people who do that, as you can see many people "like" my comments, & I know it's certainly not the majority of the users that respond to me, as they are mostly "yellers".
