Everyone needs to stop legitimizing Krugman by arguing with him. The man is a fucktard and those that drink his koolaid aren't worth the time it takes to argue with.

Just out of curiosity, how do you figure most popular? # of comments perhaps?

That's a good question.

Counting hits and dismissing multiple hits would be flawed since interest of one or two people could drive the number of hits up. Conversely dismissing the multiple hits and counting IP hits, one per IP per storie, would dismiss the same sort of interest of a few people.

Counting posts would only measure those willing to comment and not just those interested.

So what's the metric? Can we get an economist on this?

The rankings are all based on measurements taken from Warty while he's hooked up to a penile sphygnonometer.

"penile sphygnonometer"

An inflatable cock ring? Interesting methodology.

Pretty standard, actually.

So, the International Journal of Impotence Research is, like, a fun beach read for you, Sug?

Dagny,

I said that I'd do anything it took to help poor Episiarch short of "helping" in a mechanistic sense.

And speaking of dicks...

Well, in that case, on behalf of white trash girls everywhere: thank you.

He used to do more damaged to a trailer park than five tornadoes.

So where's that cocaine you were supposed to mail to me?

Like that's any good for your impotence... we want you up and about, not yappy.

Ya know, Sug, I'd question the very active role you seem to be taking in all of this (who is "we," for example?), if I didn't think Epi probably needs all the help he can get.

Look, sweetie... either you're on Team Episiarch or you're just in the way.

Team Episiarch

Listen, no matter how much you guys beg, I am not submitting to voluntary zombification just to make the all-zombie cheerleading squad.
