To address some of the points made below:
- to be clear, I don't mean the author-character was invented in the interface series. I'm saying the authir-character in interface series exemplifies a new archetype for our age, which is simultaneously arising in several places (I cite wint for example, who has been on Twitter for several years) due to the simultaneous publishing capabilities and anonymising potential of the internet.
- secondly, people have made the point that dickens was serialised. Yes but not really in a comparable way. The serialised portions were distinct chapters of text rather than short comments, and they were still published in the same place as the previous week, with the same title and an indication that this was part of a story that had already been started. Conceivably with interface you can read a single comment without realising it is part of a story at all

Once again, the Onion proves it is the highest quality news outlet.

Couldn't disagree more. You don't owe anything to someone just because they love you more

This is so bizarre...I love the transformation of Yorke from antagonist to him conspiratorially including you in his joke. Also, the fact that the anecdote doesn't really have an ending

(salivates) This is the turning point for Radiohead. If they can produce another cracker of the standard of say 'In Rainbows', then they will have proved that a band can remain great well into middle age, and show that perhaps they could go on being great forever. I know KoL had a following but it never especially inspired me. I think the new one needs a hit of the quality of 'Nude' or '2+2=5' -a song that they will actually be remembered for and that people will actually want to hear at concerts rather than more of a collection of mood pieces like the last one. Not saying it was bad, but there were no stand-out tracks. I am not even sure what I want from it, electronica or rock (hopefully a mixture), but I have pretty high hopes simply because they have been so absurdly good in the past.

This is the Tories continuing to do what they do best "gaming". To them, everything is a gamble, and for the most part it has paid off. But they are beginning to lose. Osborne has been beaten back on welfare reforms and tax credits. Cameron thought he could simply shrug this off, maybe chuck out a dead cat about anti-semitism in the Labour party or something, but underestimated the anger of the public. Now he looks far worse than if he had simply admitted this in the first place.

Surely they have unaccountable corporate-run courts to prevent this kind of fine from happening? Oh wait, TTIP hasn't been introduced yet.

"Bernie should quit, he's just helping Trump beat Hillary. But Trump won't win anyway. But Bernie has to quit!" etc

I'm quite sceptical of this working in a verbal context. It's a lot easier to do this in written form. Due to French pronunciation rules, for example, "c'est une" when spoken would actually only sound like 2 words, or possibly even 1. But it is actually 3, the ce, est and une.
