Text formatting bug, bold / _italic_ stuff.

http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2806018

I totally fubared the formatting in that post. The first problem is the asterisk in "fXckwits" (replaced with an 'X' here). I thought the formatting rules were that text surrounded by asterisks would be bolded, _if_ the asterisks were surrounded by whitespace. Parsing bug?

I tried to fix in one edit, apparently my edit timeout window's expired, so the post stands as is slightly borked.

Oh. Re-read the rules. First star doesn't require whitespace around it.

I guess I can't be f*cked anymore ;-)
