I hear this, comments generally should not draw attention to themselves. For this, short & terse win. I routinely look to cut any unnecessary words from comments.
It was the most painful code review where I asked someone to remove a joke they wrote in the comments. It was a good joke, funny, short, in good taste, I loved it, but.. distracting and unnecessary.
