No, just stop responding to or encouraging this kind of behavior. It probably seems funny to you in the context of a thread but it pollutes the discourse and gradually wears down the standards on this site.

The signal to noise ratio needs to be good, or there will be no point to reading the comments.

Wow, you just made me realize why HN is so much better than Reddit. There’s no useless comments full of in-jokes and sarcastic one liners; comments are actually thoughtful and generate discourse rather than being one-line low-wit witticisms.
