The Plot Thickens

So I was looking through this morning’s papers online, and noticed the…

Very interesting, no? All I’m saying is that I hope this isn’t going to be like one of those stolen-gnome things. That’s all I’m saying.

Wow, that is so funny, I almost went pee in my pants with all the laughing.

I thought it was because you were a late potty-trainer.

 
 

Thread destruction in a single comment! A new record!

 
 

Say, isn’t that Waldo with the Preview button?

 
 

Well, at least I understand this post, so props to you Gavin, for that at least.

 
 

Watch out for the tuba player! Oh no, not my little Preview Button!

 
 

Previewie! Come hooooooome!!!

 
 

That looks suspiciously like the Staples Easy button…

Oh those clever Madison Avenue marketing types!

 
 

Crushed beneath the jack boots of one of New York City’s finest.

 
 

Look, we had to take away your constitutionally protected preview button. Otherwise the terrorists would use it to destroy us because they hate us for that preview button.

 
 

Obviously, the Preview button stormed out of the house after a fight with the Submit button, and went to go live with some friends in the Big Apple (worst nickname ever). Hopefully, it won’t fall into the wrong crowd, end up on the street doing cheap heroin and working part time as a condom vending machine button in a sleazy bar.

It could end up as the betting button on a slot machine in a casino in St. Louis.

Dude, there’s no cheap heroin in New York anymore. The city’s so seen better days.

 
 

GO AGGIES!!!!!! WHOOP!

 
 

Oh my goodness. I think we just killed the Longhorn’s quarterback guy!

 
 

I just hope the preview button isn’t corrupted into a Staples easy button by my home city. Some Guy’s fears aren’t entirely unfounded.

 
 

Look, it’s unacceptable for Sadly, No to posess weapons of mass preview. So under the UN Resolution, our inspectors went to germany and “detained” the Preview Button. It’s being held and interrogated at a black site in eastern europe. Look, c’mon, it’s just a dunk in the water. No big thing. We’re previewing over there so we don’t have to preview over here. Just imagine what might have happened if the politically unstable Seb had given the Preview Button to the terrorists? We don’t want the Smoking Gun to be a Preview Button. Ok, I’ll stop now. Time for another nap…

The preview button is a plot by Islamofascistechnophiles to weaken America’s resolve and make us all vote Democrat.

and mikey is objectively pro-preview.

 
 

Look people, if W has taught us anything it is this – you type out what you want to say and then you submit it. And if it is wrong or has mistakes, you just keep defending it and move on (often saying the exact opposite later). Preview buttons are for the weak, for people who read polls and newspapers, for people who don’t receive everyday guidance from their gut and God.

 
 

“We’ve got to have the preview button.”

“We’ve got to have the preview button.”

“We’ve got to have the preview button.”

“Having the preview button has never been our policy.”

 
 

Of course, the remaining button is the “Submit” button.

Islam is about submission to God’s will.

Therefore, the “Submit” button is objectively pro-Islamofascist.

 
 

In this post-9/11 world, we can’t take the risk of commenting without a preview button. Call it the One Percent Doctrine. If there is a chance, even the slimmest chance, that a blog comment will have typos or incorrect code, it is our responsibility, indeed patriotic duty, to preemptively post it by using the preview button. This way we can eliminate error-ridden comments before appear.

 
 

I SHALL CALL IT THE PREVIEW BUTTON AND LO SHALL IT BE GOOD. THE SOUND THE PEOPLE SHALL MAKE WHEN ITS SECOND COMING IS UPON US:

“SQUEEEE!!!”

 
 

Am I having a Dick York moment, or has the Preview Button morphed to look like the Really Big Button that Doesn’t Do Anything?

Doodz, I think you’re messing with the cthonic powers of the toobz at this point. Or gamma rays.

I told you people before that Gavin wasn’t smart enough to put the Preview buttons back on the blog.

Nobody ever listens to Shoelimpyâ„¢

What RobW said. I would really appreciate having the option of a ‘Dominate Comment’ button, as well as the Submit one. As it is, I feel that I need to put on the fur-lined handcuffs and the ball-gag every time I leave a comment. NSFW.

Surely this is a modest request. It’s not as if I’m asking for a ‘Watersports Comment’ button, or anything involving latex.

 
 

Will you people please lay off for a moment and let me get some air back into my lungs?

[By clicking I humbly submit to the will of Sadly, No!]

Sorry, just saw The Aviator.

 
 

poor litte thing looks lonely down there all alone.

 
 

Why did everyone tell me PIMF? ‘Cause my friend left and I’m alone.
And cold.

 
 

You all know why the Preview button left – because we didn’t appreciate it enough when we had it. *sniff*

COME BACK PREVIEW BUTTON! WE LOVE YOU! SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANE!

(oops, sorry – wrong movie)

 
 

Well… what I really want is a button that will delete other people’s comments.

 
 

*seconds jade*

 
 

Now It Can Be Told. !!! Preview Button in the Big City.
Sadly, No Exclusive As-Told-To Interview with a previously-thought-missing Button,

SN : So, what do you think of NY, Button?
B : Lotsa boots.

More next issue.
Fabulous comments this thread.

 
 

Jade & Kerlyssa: just remember that works both ways…

 
 

I eat orange juice concentrate out of the can with a serving spoon ever since I got a “preview” of annie’s gender reassignment plan.

‘Strue!

 
 

Everybody’s talkin’ at me,
Can’t hear a word they’re saying
Must be the comments on my mind–

In lieu of a Preview button, how about “Artist’s Impression”? With little stick figures to indicate scale.

 
 

Can’t we just get beyond the Preview Button?

 
 

Chuck Berry likes the peeview button.

Oh, PREview…

Nevermind…
