OK…this is kinda incredible.

An hour after this posted, Swedish DORK TOWER reader Martijn van der Ven sent me a way you can actually DO this, with an example! (I’m guessing he used the the Firefox add-on Stylish).

Hi John!

I just saw your latest Dork Tower update and I loved it.

So I decided to see how it works out in practice.

You will see the comments to a random Munchkin video clip, then, “I’m a fraking moron” appended to them.

You will also see how I did it.

From now on, all the YouTube comments I will ever see will have this sentence appended to them automatically! It really makes YouTube understandable. Thanks for the tip! 😉

Kind Regards,

Martijn van der Ven

BUT THERE’S MORE! London reader Richard George has a Greasemonkey script for this. It can be found here.

var comments;

comments=document.evaluate(“//div[@class=’comment-text’]”,document,null,XPathResult.UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE, null);
if(comments) {
for (var i = 0; i < comments.snapshotLength; i++) {
thisComment= comments.snapshotItem(i);
comments.snapshotItem(i).innerHTML=thisComment.innerHTML+'

But then, I\’m a frakking moron.’; //break;

HOLY CATS, I love my readers. Seriously. You guys ROCK!
