Is anyone bothered by the fact that this sounds like code?

The code would look more like this:

096700     READ TB2000-POSTS
096800         AT END GO TO TB-2000-EXIT.
096900
097000     IF NUMBER-INFORMATIVE-POSTS > NUMBER-POLLY-POSTS
097100        AND NOT < NUMBER-TROLL-DISRUPTIONS
097200         IF Y2K-PRO-DAY-OFF AND
097300            HOMER-BEANFANG-POSTING
097400             INITIALIZE TROLL-POST
097500             IF HOT-DOOMER-NEWS AND
097600                NO-HOFF-TO-PICK-APART
097700                 IF BORED-AT-DIBUNKY
097800                   MOVE TROLL-POST TO TB2000-NEW-QUESTIONS
097900                 ELSE
098000                   MOVE FAT-ASS TO MCDONALDS
098100                 END-IF
098200                 PERFORM HECKLE-TB-POSTERS
098300                 PERFORM DECRY-CENSORSHIP
098700                 WRITE "WHO SAID COMEDY WAS DEAD?"
098800             ELSE   ....etc

Great, but you forgot Flint and Poole. To serve the purpose, you should go back to formats from the 1960"s.
