Gacked from [livejournal.com profile] auster, who got it from [livejournal.com profile] danceinacircle:

In a comment press ctrl+v, thats right just paste. Whatever it is leave it there. Don't cheat and copy something else. Just right now do it and paste whatever you've got.

What I had when I saw the meme was simply the URL http://www.livejournal.com/users/gwalla/39856.html, which I had copied from one browser into another. (At home, I usually use Opera for browsing, but Firefox for Gmail, which is where I had read the URL, in a mailing list post.)

when I reply, I usually put what I'm replying to in italics in the comment itself.

I often do that, too - especially when I comment on more than one portion of the same comment separately, or when I'm replying to only a portion of the comment.

Yeah, or else it gets too confusing. I usually have more than one topic in a single LJ entry (usually three or four) and it's just irritating when someone responds with, "I totally agree!" With what? is all I can think of when that happens.

Making clear what you're responding to = a good thing.
