General gripe thread – about me, my blog, and my comment policy

The comment area below this post will be the proper place, here on this blog, for general gripes about about me, my blog, and my comment policy, to avoid having such comments clutter up threads below posts on other topics.

I’ll be adding a link to this thread from my comment policy page, where the first rule is that comments should be posted below those posts to which they are most relevant.

I’ll be using P.S.’s to this post to reply to misplaced comments that belong here on this page. The misplaced comments will be deleted from their original positions and quoted here. (Note that this effectively buries a comment, in the sense that it will not be visible in the list of “Recent Comments” on the sidebar. So, if you want your comment to be listed under “Recent Comments,” please put it in the right place to begin with.)
