Oh boy, SiteComments has gone and stuffed up again....
The last time I was told that my SiteComment was not unique I had a bit of a rant because I was asked to comment on a post about tinnitus and I wrote about a Lady Gaga concert that I had attended only to be left with ringing in my ears for 2 or 3 days afterwards. I was told that this comment was not unique and so it was not accepted because someone else had (well, obviously) typed the exact same words at some other point in some other comment and I had to take the extra time to re-write my comment.... Ok, I get that... maybe someone else's ears were left reeling at the vocal abilities of the quirky songstress after a concert in Belfast..... stranger things have happened....
THIS TIME I have some trouble accepting exactly WHO could possibly have left the exact same comment as me. My alter-ego? My 'other' personality?? My (oh, no...!) stalker????? Allow me to explain...
Ok, so... I'm doing something controversial... I'm posting a screen shot of my comment and you tell me at what point it could ever have been copied from any other comment on here.... And please, if any of you have ever had this comment DO tell me...

The post on which I commented was on a waterproof, windproof parka and here is my comment and the offending subsequent message.....
Oops! indeed....!!!
Well, I know it's Sunday and I'm not strictly speaking 'working' but I also didn't want to HAVE to spend extra time coming up with another comment (when there was nothing wrong with this one!) - nor did I really want to have to spend time writing this blog post, but it needed saying - so I tried to think of what I could add or take away to make it (ahem!) more unique.
So, how did I get the comment approved.....?
I added the words "Great post" to the very end. BINGO!!!!!!
SiteComments..... get your act together!!!!
