here you go:
All the first letters of each word are written with a straight line somewhere in them
 
You can string the words together using a letter from the previous word to form a word between the words, and make a strangely coherent sentence.

Anarachy having Eventually travelled Downward an Esophagus goes Forward with Google. OH!
 
All the words, except the last two, sound like something a downward motion. Google, there was only this one time that it was down, otherwise I've never known it to be down for me. Forward, I don't know about.

First you have to replace each letter with the number it represents (1-26)

Then you add the word ?useless? to sum up my feeling about this thread, and the time I?ve put into it, you get?

Anarchy
1+14+1+18+3+8+25 = 70
Eventually
5+22+5+14+20+21+1+12+12+25 = 137
Downward
4+15+23+14+23+1+18+4 = 102
Esophagus
5+19+15+16+8+1+7+21+19 = 111
Forward
6+15+18+23+1+18+4 = 85
Google
7+15+15+7+12+5 = 61
Useless
21+19+5+12+5+19+19 = 100


70+137+102+111+85+61+100 = 666

Wow! So.... how long did this take you? That is just so mind boggling that you just added these numbers up.

each word contains another word

Anarchy
Eventually
Downward
Esophagus
Forward
Google

Taking that a step further, each word contains two words:

Anarchy = An + arch
Eventually = Even(t) + all
Downward = Down + ward
Esophagus = so(p) + hag
Forward = For + ward
Google = Go + ogle

adding up the initial numbers was easy
the hard part was finding a word that added up to 100 😉
