With regards to a recent sarcastic comment by Vicarious about me posting on PDD about an interview I did about a PDD post, I was reminded of this Richardson brothers story. It was inspired by a war in the PDD comments section back in the old days, but the gist is infinite recursion in blog comments.

It’s cool that Dave Sorensen, Paul Lundgren, David Beard, and I will enjoy this. I think Helmut moved to Hibbing. Burly is so gone it’s nuts.
Of course, I comment in jest and good humor.
What about my needs?
Vicarious: Yeah I know, I appreciate you and your comments
Helmut: your needs are beautiful and natural
