Nathan: Man of Science

Nathan, like myself, is very scientific and smart, and expresses himself most clearly through graph, and/or other complicated experiments and data.

He made these rad graphs about you blog commenter's--




He has developed a fixation on de-lurking the lurkers, even though I have warned him against such dangerous endeavours.

Well you know what Mr Smart Pants? I had it the proper way, and then when I did the spellcheck, it came up as being spelt wrong, and had 'commenter's' as the alternative. So I pressed it. Blame stoopid spellcheck, not me.

And yes, if Spellcheck jumped off a cliff I would too.

Nathan said...

I have delurked one reader. Let there be more of it I say...

RodeoClown said...

Who, me?

I've been hanging around here for month!

Ben McLaughlin said...

i think he's bragging about someone on his own blog, Rodeo.

RodeoClown said...

Then why wouldn't he post it on his own blog then?

;)

Ben McLaughlin said...

He doesn't want to frighten the pale, freshly de-lurked creture. He must stand very still and offer it some food from an open palm, and build up trust. Otherwise it will bolt.

RodeoClown said...

Fair enough - they could be out of there in 9.58 seconds!

Nathan said...

Do you lurk on mine too RodeoClown? You should. You should also post more on yours.

I was referring to another lurker.

Nathan said...

Usain Bolt reading my blog. Now that would be a triumph.

RodeoClown said...

@Nathan: I read a fair few of your posts, but I'm hesitant to add such a prolific poster to my RSS, as I already have more to read than I really have time for.

I tend to use st-eutychus as a buffet to feed on once I've exhausted my reader.

And yes, I should post more on mine - I have plenty of ideas, but lack motivation. One day there will be more there. You should watch the two videos that I linked yesterday. They are worth watching.

Nathan said...

Another lurker bites the dust.

One day I will use that quote as a testimonial.

I just read your terrific post that you linked to from the Fountainside today. Much respect.

onlinesoph said...

Am I the lurker? I don't like the word lurker. I prefer casual observer...

Nathan said...

No. Well, you are I guess, but not the one I was talking about, and not any more because you linked to me which is, in terms of blogger parlance, more effective delurking than commenting.

Three delurkings in one day. I'm on a roll.

Nathan said...

I'm now wondering how many people out there share RodeoClown's fear of constant updates.

I think I will conduct a poll.

RodeoClown said...

@Nathan: Thanks, I meant what I said there.

---
I'm not afraid of frequent updates per se, it just appears that you post around 50 or 60 times a day, and I'm worried about my productivity at work :)

I'll upgrade you to the hallowed status of appearing in Rodeo's RSS Reader eventually I'm sure :)

Just not today :D

I picture Nathan in full de-lurking regalia, looking sort of like a Ghost Buster.
