Shit HN says? You mean that twitter account[1] that posts one-off comments, devoid of any and all context, and then attributes it to the entire site as if it were one person? Or representative of the site's users in any way?

Nothing positive, or useful, or interesting has ever come out of a "Shit (community) says" group. Those types of (what's the word here.. articles? groups? Whatever, things) are always crass, point-and-laugh-derisively-at-the-stupid-people-ha-ha-look-how-stupid-they-are affairs.

Reddit's instance of this cancer (and I don't believe I've chosen the wrong term for something this awful) even functions as a more or less sanctioned voting brigade.
