First post nails it!

First post is correct.

Once again, first post is correct.

Is this a 4chan thing? I've seen it pop up here more and more. It's getting kind of annoying.

I know, cool story bro, these things happen, we must be cautious and all that...

Isn't it inaccurate?

When people say "first post wins", don't they really mean that the second post - or the first reply - is the winning one?

I think it's because it's amazing how the first post reply is almost always the best post.

I'm going to start quoting first replies that are sub-par, and writing "First post, high and to the right."

Better yet, "First post: No impact, no idea."

or "First post, you're in the BERMMM...."

many times it is used after a response to a question that just requires a bit of common sense to answer

generally those answers are very short and concise and take place before the inevitable arguing and hurt feelings occurs

I'm interested in this point.

Running something into the ground means using it up, killing it, or making it unusable.

Ad nauseaum means to be repeated to the point of nausea.

How does one repeatedly use something made unusable by its previous use?

If you can glom on to that?
