I find that comments generally come across as being a lot more polite if they don't all feature "Really?" as the very first sentence, optionally misspelt for dramatic effect or preceded by some other exclamation-enhancing padding. I'm sure we all make similar mistakes, but toning down the drama makes it more likely that people might keep reading, potentially increasing the benefit to all concerned.

I hope you never considered any kind of job as a journalist. You could even fail to be a "LWN journalist"
