great moments in jon swift

Jon Swift has outdone himself this time.

This post is particularly fun for me. Because I was able to successfully block out 99% of the US "election" campaign, I didn't even know about half this stuff.

One of the many things I love about the Jon Swift blog is the hilarious consistency of the comments. Whatever post you read, you'll always see at least one comment that isn't quite sure about the satire: "I think this is meant to be a joke. I hope this is meant to be a joke. If not....you are a freaking insane lunatic."

This post, full of links, naturally draws the obligatory "no one reads you anyway" comment: "This is clever stuff. Let's see, how can I drum up links for my obscure blog, Swift asks. Oh yes, I'll link to blogs that have actual readership. Thanks for driving those three hits my way."

Check out how many bloggers have linked to this JS post. It's safe to say that's a small fraction of his well-deserved large readership.

He's just amazing.
