Subject Doesn't really matter

This comment has not made the grade but I include it here as a further demonstration of the great cultural divide between pre-dominantly anglo-saxon societies of the world (i.e. the USA and the rest of us).

Moderation +1
    70% Funny
    30% Troll

Go figure!

This was supposed to be a thow away comment. Not one for the project, maybe not particularly funny but worth a point or two either way on the Unfunny / Funny scale.

Imagine my surprise to see it mod'ed as a -1 Troll. I mean, comeon. A previous moderator had already given a clue and rated it +1 Funny. There, it was supposed to be a fscking joke, rate it unfunny, but Troll..? Actually, come to think of it, maybe that was supposed to be funny mod, you know, ironic (remember when the US used to "do" irony, I think it first started with the Supreme Court decision in December 1999 and Bin Laden ended it in September 2001).

Anyway, thanks to /.'s rather dubious high ranking of my Karma this now sits at +3 which is fair but does not qualify for the (unnamed OSS) Project but I'll take the result.
