First Comment
I've never understood commenters who get excited over adding the first comment to a post. I haven't it seen it happen here in the coffeehouse, but I see it in a few other places. What is the big deal?

Being the first one to use a public restroom after it's been cleaned - now, that is something to crow about.

Don't even think about it.

Damn!!! (and I was sure I'd open up the comments to see Dr. Bean's wise words.)

As for first comments... it's not about wearing a crown or anything for being "first", but like many areas in life, it's clear that people are fearful to make the first move. The first comment is an ice-breaker, at least in my eyes.

Third!

Blast you, Bean!!!

Pearl - fair enough. I meant when the entirety of the comment addresses the fact that said commenter is the first commenter and nothing else.

I disagree. It's all about wearing a crown.

Why do I suddenly feel like the guy who finally scored a date with the class floozy?
