This comes from a site that makes up all kinds of lame and idiotic things to say after each episode. These people probably aren't that stupid, but are saying these things as a joke.

Yep. This guy is really funny. He calls himself the lostagator. He is always solving the show in a comedic way. You out to go and investigate the site. He sometimes photoshops the pictures to justify his lunacy: themisfitishere.blogspot.com/

This comes from a site that makes up all kinds of lame and idiotic things to say after each episode. These people probably aren't that stupid, but are saying these things as a joke. Actually, ThEmIsFiTiShErE is one person. Here's his bio from Wikipedia: ThEmIsFiTiShErE (viz. The Misfit is Here) is the online alias of a devout LOST fan, known for his bizarre theories and commentary concerning the show. TheMisfit is in actuality a parody of hardcore LOST fans [1]. He claims his name is Mike Rotch (Or 'My Crotch'), lives in Scotland, and is currently in a hospital (where he watches LOST with his 'friend' Tony) because of an 'incident' 5 years ago. He currently operates a blog for his findings where he posts theories on a regular basis. He is famous for a listing of continuity errors (e.g. Jack Shephard spelled wrong on his Doctor's Certificate.) Internet personalityThe Misfit’s posts feature rhetoric in which he fully capitalizes random words in his sentences, to promote his satire of a troll-like personality. He also makes intentional errors in his text, such as mispelling the names of characters. The Misfit's style of "analysis" usually involves taking a picture somehow related to lost and interpreting it in a manner which ignores "common sense." For example he may take photos of Lost stars in other roles and interepret them as indicating an upcoming storyline for the character. One of Misfit's genuine contributions to the arena of Lost fandom is an incredible ability to discover and catalog production errors within the show, most notably being when crew or equiptment is visible. This information is usually presented on the web site as being evidence for some bizarre theory. For example, The Misfit claimed that Desmond was not alone when he killed Kelvin, because the hand of a crew member was visible behind a rock. Despite the satirical nature of presentation, the ability to discover so many errors does show a genuine eye for detail and an obsessive interest in the show. He claims to be hospitalized for a problem with his "brian". His outrageous theories, simplistic logic, and childlike overconfidence, are often mistaken by readers as ignorance, stubbornness, and/or arrogance. This is indicated by the many corrections and insults in each article's comments thread. His blog has now passed 3 million hits. The Tail SectionAs of July 2006, the Misfit is now a writer at the fansite The Tail Section. Tailsection operator DocArzt claims in his front page news that due to concerns he received from his community about adding the Misfit, he wished to reveal to his readers that: "It is my great pleasure to inform all the sour-pusses of the world that ThEmIsFiTiShErE is actually a satire. A satire of over zealous LOST fans freeze-framing and scouring the internet for answers. A satire of the LOST fans who come up with the craziest theories you could possibly think of (remember how they were going to find a floating eye in the Hatch?) and defend them incredulously. Here's his bio from Lostipedia Themisfitishere is a site about a "'Lost' fan" who spells things incorrectly and doesn't know anything about the show. He capitalizes random words to act like an idiot. For example: i HAVE an idea about THE episode THAT WAS last night with Hannah-Lucian called "Three Moments!!! - when it should be Ana-Lucia and Three Minutes. go to his site at themisfitishere.blogspot.com/ to see for yourself. His myspace friends list is currently growing as well. Recently, ThEmIsFiT's alleged son has started his own blog, following in his dad's footsteps.
