Damn, now I can't decide between downvoting this comment as practice, and upvoting it for giving me an opportunity to practice.

check his comment history, find a couple good comments you missed, and upvote them. Then downvote this one.

I have taken your advice.

I just go through this loop of thinking "OK, that's a clever comment, nicely self-referential, I'm upvoting that. No, wait, I'm showing just the lack of discipline Eliezer is talking about! I should have the strength to downvote. CannibalSmith is setting a good test. Neat of him to do it. Must upvote..."

I downvoted. Clearly I really do need the practice. It's clever of him to provide the opportunity to do so. I should upvote...
