I'm well aware of the standard rule. I'm also well aware that my comment isn't really appropriate for a talk page anyhow, and as such I wanted to keep it as tiny as possible, including no reason to waste space with a signature. Mainly I put it there because I didn't want the person who wrote, "Did anyone else find this to be the most hilarious SOUTH PARK in YEARS!" to possibly feel discouraged because the only response someone had given to that was "no". So, I added my response to try to conteract that.
You now are wasting even more space with what you added back to the page than I wanted to at all. Moreover, you selectively enforced the rule on my comment without doing so with the other two (or with any of the others on the page for that matter). I do not like be singled out in this way. As such I am going to remove my comment altogether. As a consequence of your action then, my altristic act toward the poster of the original comment is gone, both you and I have wasted time that could have been used for other useful things, and I feel more inclined now to say screw people like you by leaving more of my comments unsigned. I would accordingly say then that you have unambiguously made the world a worse place.

If you haven't already, can you please see your own talk page? Thanks.--Cory Kohn 21:17, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Okay, that had to be the most level-headed, non-confrontational, empathetic response I've ever seen in here, which puts me in a place such that I cannot respond with anything but a similar disposition. I can definitely now see that you weren't exactly the one who had singled me out -- it was whoever first added the unsigned comment note. I also understand that you, not knowing my experience with Wikipedia, were attempting to be helpful by educating whoever I might be as to Wikipedia's polices.
- I think some comments that I made above were accordingly wholly unnecessary (perhaps too much time in Yahoo! politics chat has resulted in me being too inclined to comment in such ways when I am online...), and I do offer my apologies for any unpleasantness that might have come from them. Thank you very much for taking the time to clarify. Friends now? Absolutely.
