MetaTalk

I'm not entirely sure how I came to it but I was reading this post at Gawker & wandered down into the comments only to find this odd bit of writing. Some of the replies were witty but then (MeFi's own?) Gawker editor Maureen O'Connor pointed out it was essentially identical to this anonynmous AskMe from 5 years ago. At the very least I figure it's a curiosity worth pointing out to my fellow MeFites who have too much free time on their hands & want to dissect it under the usual microscope.

In the last half-hour, AskMefi appears to have begun doubling every comment.

I had a problem. Now, it's happening all over again. Would it be bad form to bother the green for a second time? [more inside]

The Charlie White photo question came up again in Askme. Are there other specific questions that have been repeated over the years? Just curious...

Apologies if this has been asked.... I sometimes see new AskMe postings appear that I *know* I've seen before. [more inside]

This is practically the same as this, and similarly vague. Double post?

On the green... why do we have a duplicate post? As in, word-for-word duplicate

I posted a question to AskMeFi and it is not there. I don't see any post about it being removed here...Can anyone enlighten me on its fate? "Thought Experiment regarding light and mirrors..."

A convincing argument for AskMe double posts.
