Does anyone else think that HN engages in far too much navel-gazing? Nothing gets upvotes faster than a HN submission about HN.

It's true that meta is the crack of internet forums, so we, er, crack down on it quite a bit. That's a longstanding view: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...

Alternate metaphor: evil catnip - https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...

But yesterday's thread and this one are clearly exceptions—far above the median. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46212180 was particularly incredible I think!

Dang, posting links to searches for your own comments is so meta, no matter the topic, but even more meta when about meta crack. I love how the first hit of meta crack is this, your own message about meta crack.
