    Default Loooooooooooooooooong

    Are any of you like me and see a topic with about ten pages of posts and do a mental-sigh at the amount of effort it would take to catch up with what is going on? Do you have any tactics to deal with these monstrosities of banal commentary?

    Yeah, most opinions I see here are really of no value. Skip to the good parts, and those who have a certain credibility with me and can keep my interest long enough for me to care.

    I sigh, but I always read the whole thread through unless I am in a rush; if I'm in a rush I usually come back to the thread later and give it read when I'm not as busy.

    I read the first two pages then skip to the last two pages, hoping people would have quoted anything important from the middle pages.
    If the topic's REALLY interesting, I try to read the whole thing. But sometimes I just can't be bothered.

    Set your posts-per-page to 500, then you only have one page to read instead of ten.

    If I'm interested I read about halfway through at best, then give up.

    I normally read it unless its something i dont get or find boring

    If your really lazy you can just quote someone and put "i agree"

    If I was like Cloud I don't think I would have taken that test.

    You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!
