Links to previous items. Harsh criticism of prevailing convervative/liberal figurehead.
Completely unworkable controversial suggestion.
Pre-emptive defense of suggestion. Re-iteration of premise. Re-iteration of anguish/disgust.
Contrived example of applied suggestion:
Item in italics
Unintentionally ironic comment.
Item in italics
Forced attempt at humor.
Optional item in italics [structural]
Intelligent comment marred by typographical error. Extraneous suggestion. Enthusiastic conclusion. Extraneous suggestion. Extraneous suggestion.
Question? Disclaimer. Invitation to comment.

Detailed deconstruction of straw man argument never actually set forth by original poster.
Thinly supported counter argument that makes sense only in light of non-existent straw man position set forth above.
Smug self-congratulatory praise.
Rolleyes.

Shameless bumping of thread to reiterate ill-considered position.
Query as to intelligence level of Otters who haven't yet posted here.
Inane humor. Non-sequitur.
Innocuous comment. Lakers reference.

Gratuitous sprinkling of non-standard smileys in vain attempt to disguise lack of substantive content.

Hijack of thread to discuss vain attempts at reproduction with model-stature woman.
Query regarding failure of women to notice poster, coupled with self-aggrandizing, and clearly exaggerated, description of sexual prowess.
Token mention of thread topic. Irrelevant commentary on unpredictability of human nature.
Bad, well-circulated joke.

Unwarranted and unsupported accusation of bias on part of mods. Self deprecating remark. Weak statement of general support for mods, expression of understanding of difficulty of mods job. Reassertion of accusation of bias.

More backpedal. Reference to previous obligatory smilie after thinly-veiled attack. Vague statement impugning the sense of humor of prior posters. Hints as to dificiencies in the offline life of other forum members.

Italicized contrast between thinly-veiled attack with smilie and unabashed attack resulting in ban.
Thin agreement for purposes of self-preservation.
