None of the credit, all of the blame
That recently-added "Recent Comments" box uses code from scriptygoddess, specifically from Lynda, and was added at the prompting of Michelle. If the execution sucks, that's all me.
Any questions, comments? Include more comments? Fewer? Shut the hell up already?
Comments
the comment thing is very good, just as it is. now, get on back there to scriptygoddess and install that 'subscribe to comments' script. and while you're at it the comment permalinks. (i have the instructions on that).
features! more features! more!
*ahem* do not listen to me. i'm clearly insane.

All of the various comment goodness is the best part about MT (not that I know first hand).

yup...that's going on my redesign.

I love seeing my comments trailing off with an ellipsis because they'd probably make more sense if they were actually truncated by a merciless script before being posted.

Oh how exciting! Glad you did it.

kd, hon, if you start with a blend and gradually increase the % of decaf, it's easier.
Jason, at least you have a design. I make minor tweaks every two months.
goneaway, lord knows the entries would gain a lot from merciless truncation.
Michelle, I live to serve. Because the service sector is still the fastest-growing part of the economy. In fact, make that "only."

Hm. Okay. That's definitely something I need to add. I dig it, quite a bit. I need to redesign, too. I'm starting to hate the way my blog looks.
It needs a spider on it. And recent comments... and subscriby things... and...
Don't even speak to me of decaf. It does not exist in my consensual universe.

VASpider, there's another script that includes the most recent comments, full stop, rather than the most recent from however many threads you plugged in. Which is why this response shows up on the index page, while your comment doesn't.
And seeing as I picked up the nasty habit of creative trackback excerpts from you, it's only fair.
I only know of decaf from song and story. Never touch the stuff.

In a world where cheap beer is, well, cheap and plentiful there is absolutely no reason for decaf. You fuck up too badly then drink a few of these and everything will be better or at least blurrier.
