This got me to thinking about Matt Yglesias' initial point -- there are so many newcomers to the blogosphere that, "the aggregate audience for blog commentary is enormously larger than it was a few years ago, so it's quite possible that there are people reading this blog right now who have never heard of of the classic[s]..."
So, without further ado, here are my top five, in chronological order:
No. 1--Agree.
No. 2--Just pedantic, not great, not even very good.
No. 3--Snarky and cynical, "I know everything and you are an idiot if you disagree with me." Junk.
Nos. 4 and 5--Hilarious.
