for the first one, it wasn't the sentiment so much as the use of gray text to evoke his fading enthusiasm. bigger has an awesomely dry sense of humor, but i think he keeps it cabined more as a wolf (in large part because he hates wolfing and posts very carefully). i have a hard time seeing wolf bigger think to illustrate his point like this; when i read it, it just struck me as really spontaneous and carefree.
for the second one, it's not just that this demonstrates thought processes beyond what's going on in the thread, but that he had no problem saying something like this and then just leaving it without (as far as I can see) further explanation. similar to UAW's vote of Xkf upon entering the thread. to me it says, "i just had a thought and want to mark it down for people, so here's a quick window into my head." the strong implication also is that he could explain if he wanted, so any wolf doing this would have to have their tinfoil explanation backed up and ready to go -- and if they're going to go through the trouble to prepare it, why not post it in the first place? again, hard for most wolves to pull the trigger on trying to replicate something like that.
