The Comment of the Beast

About five or six months ago, I was surprised to note that the number of comments on Dividing by Zero had reached the point where there were more comments than posts. I haven’t really been paying attention to the number of comments since then. Tonight though I just happened to take another glance at the numbers:

As of this evening, Dividing by Zero has received six hundred and sixty-six comments, 666.
So what was “The Comment of the Beast”? Well, it came in response to the post about The Eastern Setter when Luke wrote in to say, “when i die, i wanna come back as an Eastern Setter.”

It’s a sentiment I can certainly understand. Take a look through those photos and you’ll see that Wylie’s surrounded by a lot of pretty girls. He’s the neighborhood rock star after all and chicks dig the fuzzy guy.
It’s ironic that Luke should be the person who left comment #666 though. He’s in seminary and can tell you in far more detail than I can about how all dealings with the devil come with a great deal of peril. You might manage to get exactly what you asked for, but there’s always going to be a vital detail you didn’t think of.
In those photos, Wylie is getting his back skritched by pretty girls, and what guy wouldn’t like to be in that situation? But here’s the detail Luke overlooked: Wylie has been fixed.

One thought on “The Comment of the Beast”

  1. HAHAHAHA! well, this either makes that comment inline with the “Debbil” or inline with the emperor of Rome (some say 666 is a code for Nero some say, others say for a Roman general). i tend to go with revelation and other apocalyptic literature as encoded political rants.
    as for Wylie being fixed, i’m married, so it’s kinda the same thing. i’m hanging around with nurses all day long at the hospital. i just prefer the company of women. 😉 smell better to the Eastern Setter ya know.
    RAWK OUT DUDE!
