First post
On certain forums and at certain journals, the "first post" is highly coveted by attention-seeking comment whores, who quickly declare their post's status as such. This is a bannable offense at Something Awful, while it is usually awarded a certain amount of epoints on Jameth's LiveJournal. On Slashdot it is considered GNAA trolling and blocked immediately.
On Fark the words "first post" are changed to "Boobies" and the timestamp is bumped up by 12 hours. This is the only funny thing that happens on Fark.
On http://www.thesuperficial.com every single blog post is full of people trying to get the first post with the winners, losers, and those who think first posting is stupid all cussing each other out and e-fighting over first posting.
MaxofS2D shows us that even the french are annoyed by first comments.
