I’ve been seeing this for a while now, so I’m starting to think the appropriate people (@beschizza?) might not be aware of it:
Long form articles (such as http://boingboing.net/2015/07/23/steve-jobs-insanely-great-2.html ) are concluding with an invitation to “Continue the discussion at bbs.boingboing.ne”. It seems to be a typo rather than being randomly cut off.
(I keep thinking I am being entreated by some kind of anime character, as in “bbs dot boingboing, ne?” Maybe it’s a feature?)
Indeed

So possibly a CSS issue, it is there in the text…
I opened up firebug and took a look.
The div that contains that piece of code has overflow set to hidden, a width of 45% and a max width of 728px, but the font size is 22px.
Basically, on this page the CSS is specifying a fixed size for that div, but expressing it in relative sizing terms with a bunch of limits, and the size of the font is too large to fit.
The Knight Who Say Net? There’s no such thing!
