I've seen that too, and it is somewhat annoying.  It doesn't happen with all 
posts.  Only those that seem to have long lines that the browser has to wrap 
to the next line.  It depends upon the window size.  If the width is adjusted a 
little, the duplication will disappear.  Sometimes if the width is changed back 
to where it was, it willl return, sometimes not until the page is refreshed.

One message that I've seen this phenomenon with is Radoslaw's recent post,

If the screen is wide enough that "good" from the line above is the last word 
on the line, with enough room left in the window for about two more 
characters, "good" repeats on the next line.  In fact, the next two lines also 
have the last word repeated on the following lines.
