How many of us visit a news item on search engines, or visit threads just to read the replies, and care much less about the content?

I’m guilty of doing that on Yahoo sometimes. The comments are more refreshing than the news content.

For Instance:

^I read the stuff half way…get the gist of the article..then if it is something political or controversial..then I scroll down and look for the comments

P.S. I want to go on that “Drop of Doom”, it looks hair-raising

Watch out for Scott. Don’t let him sit near you.

Guilty. Mostly the comments are more interesting especially on Yahoo.
