    Hacker news is probably the highest concentration of dickheads on the internet. Smug levels through the roof. Every one of them thinks they are richer and therefore cleverer than you and they are going to spend 8 paragraphs telling you about it.

      I try to only read the comments on niche technical posts which I find interesting. The rest of the sites comments are grating. It's got more bootlicker comments than reddit. They will parade the most extreme edge cases out as excuses for not implementing any moderately progressive policy then bitch about bikeshedding. I also hate how so many comment threads will devolve into a trivial bash syntax argument. Fuck me, the Bash shit really is fucking annoying. Just try to suggest a Bash one-liner to fix a persons issue and you will blow the site up.
