ok, this has been stuck in my craw for a few months now, and I need some input.
If you've ever been to a blog where there is a comment section at the bottom (like at the Onion), you may occasionally see the first comment (at the top, usually) consisting of simply the word "first" or "First!".
Am I missing something, or is this just a thing some people do now? Like "Hey, I was the FIRST person to comment!". Perhaps it is akin to calling "shotgun"?
anywhoo, I really hope this dies down soon, because it's annoying the s-hit outta me.

KTB I'm afraid firsts will never die, if my internet journeys are any indication. It's an expected annoyance when visiting most discussion threads at The Onion, to cite one of many examples.
Fark.com created a booby trap (literally) for those posters who would crow about firsts -- a filter that automatically changed the words "first post" to "boobies" and then time-stamped the post hours later, so it would not appear first in the queue.

I was going to say "I can't believe that people actually make the effort (well, a few keystrokes and a click) to do something so pointless...", but then I remembered that this is the Internet.
numa numa, indeed.
