Sad
This is possibly the saddest cry for help i've ever read on a blog:
i'm trying to imagine the pain that causes an individual to get up at 7 am on a Saturday morning and post an anonymous comment on a fourth rate Durham blog counting the number of comments on various posts and criticizing other commenters.
If anyone knows who this person might be, please try your best to make sure they get the help they need. I really don't want to feel any responsibility for this person's pain or any desperate actions they might take.
Considering the anonymous comment got you 21 comments, so far, and your usual blog entry gets one or two, go right ahead and disable anonymous comments.
And because "durhamfood", "toastie", "Maura", and "Mr. Happy" are soooo much more revealing of the authors' identities.

Since 1949, Durhamites have slept soundly, secure in the knowledge that, in our town, erection can be depended upon. Now, thanks to the power of the internets, we can spread that security all over the world.

Some of us don't stay up drinking 'til 3 am on Friday nights and sans hangover are halfway though the morning by 7 am.
Suffice it to say that I find it entertaining you abuse people who disagree with you here yet threaten to cut off anonymous posts. What a little tin god.
This needs to be renamed the Erectile Dysfunction blog because it's about the limpest thing around. It's not even close to 4th rate. Please tell us how much time you spend writing a blog that no one reads.
Sad cry for help indeed.

Um, may I be the first to point out that you are reading this blog, anonymous dear.
How ironic.

Seven minutes and 45 seconds a day.
Since i stopped wanking, i needed to fill those extra minutes, and this seemed as good a choice as any.
For what it's worth, i was up and about at 4:30 this morning engaging in activity which, as difficult as it may be to believe, was even more productive than blogging.
I'm going to put your "Little Tin God" remark on a t-shirt when i open my CafePress store. If you send me your email address, i'll send you a $5 off coupon as a token of my gratitude.

I can't speak for anyone else here, but I'm usually done with my first round of drinking by noon. I have things to do in the afternoon.

i have been online since 94, i participated in a message board where most of us have "known" each other for 10 years...by screen names. Sure we have met in person but there is one guy who i have never even seen a picture of...but i feel like he is family because he sticks with his persona. I have found that people who post anonymously usually do so because they are repressed...the lash out with all sorts of vitrol and evilness, usually from left field and without merit. Name calling is typical too...
"Anonymous" get help, see a shrink, anti-depressants may help...but let it go baby...it is sad

Hey Anon. It is simple. You don't like it, stop reading it. Even you can't be too stupid to figure that out.

I asked a serious question: BR compains he can't get the city to do anything about his trashy neighbor yet in many other posts wants to re-elect the same guys. Sorry if your response to being questioned is abuse.
"the(y) lash out with all sorts of vitrol and evilness" -> go read the foul language and hate for the people he opposes in many of BR's posts. I think your diagnosis is perfectly correct. An anonymous post has nothing to do with it.
I enjoy reading this blog. When I read the newspaper in the morning I read the serious stuff, then sports and then the comics.
Then I go read stuff on line. After everything else, this blog, unintentionally or not, serves as the comics.
"Little Tin God" -> it's a reference to a popular song of a few years back. Go look it up.

if by "serious question" you mean This needs to be renamed the Erectile Dysfunction blog because it's about the limpest thing around. It's not even close to 4th rate. Please tell us how much time you spend writing a blog that no one reads., i'll say that i've amswered that question with the seriousness it deserves.
i look forward to adding your blog to my reading list. if you do what i did and stop wanking, you'll have enough extra time in your day to post regularly.
