The Valiant Commentary
17th April 2010 with 59 comments
So, comments. Some people are scolded for leaving comments on blogs that clearly show that they haven’t read the blog. Even designing blogs, technology blogs, entertainment blogs, have comments enabled which allow you to leave a response to the blog posts. As defined in the Merriam-Webster dictionary, a comment is:
1) a commentary;
2) a note explaining, illustrating, or criticizing the meaning of a writing
How is a comment on a blog post saying “nice site” or “nice layout” a commentary on the post at all? So please, try to avoid writing “first comment” when 1) you aren’t entirely sure if you are first because there could be at least one other person other than you also typing a comment when you are, 2) you indicate this uncertainty with a question mark at the end of your comment, 3) the time I posted was obviously a significant time before you encountered the post, keeping in mind that I am about 10+ hours GMT, and 4) you aren’t even going to come back and leave a “proper comment” like you said you were.
Point noted? Yay.
I’m sorry I’ve been so lazy but please excuse me; I’ve been watching The Big Bang Theory episodes non-stop, and no doubt I will be watching them over and over once I finish watching all the ones I have…
Not to mention I currently am on study break (yes, you heard me, I mentioned the word “study”, so don’t you dare call this a holiday!), so I’m taking a few days off to chill before I start pulling together the two assignments I have to work on, including – yet another – group debate.
This time our topic is on “privacy is dead” but we are in the negative. Privacy is not dead in terms of media – why? You have the choice about the information you give out online, there are stated laws for companies not to release your information, and…
If by chance Ryan should read this, I think he might be disappointed that I gave out potential information in regards to our debate that would actually hinder our chances of winning, should the opposing team come across my blog, ergo I should shut up.
Yesterday, Ryan, Vicky and I went to a really old milk bar; perhaps one from around the 1930s.
It was so creepy before we went in, because the lights were out and no one was in there. It was so spooky and the inside was really run-down, the door broken – Vicky and I were scared. Finally we went in. It was so eerie and quiet.
It was an interesting experience nonetheless. A good way to occupy ourselves during our break, also by taking sticker photos (hahaha) and just hanging out again.
Comments will be done when I can stop watching The Big Bang Theory.


I would work on my website but my classmates are really nosy.
(I don’t know how to spell it.)
I’ve missed blogging… it’s so nice to know that when I post this you know longer have to reply using the plugin.
1) People would just return my comments. 2) They leave a comment that doesn’t have to do with my blog. 3) The spam bots pays a visit. I wouldn’t approve any comments post that says “nice site” or “nice layout.” I would just delete them. That’s what I do.

I wish we had that they stopped it this year, the year the I finally get into the final year,
they always do stuff like that to my year. =/
That’s good. You’ll be ready when it comes to the server change.
A two week break meanings doing nothing. Just having fun.
I guess that’s out of the question. Have fun doing your assignments.

HELLO! It’s okay! I’m dead certain I have first comment because I am just THAT cool
Also, as you can see, I am leaving you a proper comment HERE
Win.
It just occurred to me that since you are moderating comments, I don’t even have to put ‘first comment!’ any more so no other idiot just goes ‘first comment!’ and then just leaves it here. Hahaha.
Ahhhhh! So lucky! I wish I could watch some of my animes over and over again. I really, REALLY want to watch Special A again (because the girl is SO THICK, she makes me feel better. And because it’s THAT funny) and Code Geass, even though Code Geass makes me CRYYYYY
But yeah.
Hahaha, the Big Bang Theory sounds kind of funny (judging by the name and the commercials I’ve seen), but I’ve never watched it
LOL. No time! It’s hard enough catching up on the stuff I could have been doing while watching SYTYCD
Bad me
Hehehe! Yay for your study break
Mine is finishing tomorrow and I am so sad
Oh well, at least I got one
Oh wow. Another group debate
Wow. That was quick. Let me know if you need points
I’ll try and think of some. Hahahahaha! Although I don’t think we mentioned privacy much in my law tutes apart from when we were discussing human rights and government privilege. It’s funny, I can only give you the pompous law perspective
Privacy IS kind of dead
Which sucks. BUT THERE ARE WAYS OF GETTING AROUND THAT! RAWR!
Yes! I saw that milk bar on your plog. It looks very awesomely retro
I want to go there now. Even if it IS a little creepy

No one would be sure whether they get first comment or not. Sigh! Yet they still are idiotic loons; I had a stupid bitch (I really don’t care if she sees this; she put down a fucking fake email anyway) comment “second comment” only about an hour ago… imbecile.
Haha you are forgiven. Speaking of catching up, watching The Big Bang Theory a lot has left me with a lot of comments to catch up on.
Yep, and you got some work done too.
I’m sure I’ll get some work done.
Oh wait, that could help though! I’ll need a few references to laws regarding privacy. *nods*
I have to argue it’s not dead. Which it isn’t! [Will give you more points when we chat.]
