Good to see that you used spoilers.
Also, you may just want to consider being a bit more succinct in your posts. Getting people online to actually read more than a simple paragraph is a major task, so having a dozen videos, multiple photos, huge numbers of quotes, etc. means that you're expecting people to think you're automatically and extraordinarily interesting. That's a poor assumption in this day and age. |

A few of the long ones are long due to multiple replies as I at times actually try to read everyones' posts, while some of the goldfish might read only the posts on the page they're on. As I've put it, this ain't Twitter, or at least not supposed to be Twitter—though I could be wrong. Also, part of it is pick and choose—I don't actually expect people to listen to all of my videos; and as threads here last for years, I'm anticipating they being in search results, such as Google. Sorry I overwhelmed whatever device manufactured in the early 21st century you have. Poor computers and devices—they just can't take all that info. Btw, is there an ignore button you guys can put me on so you needn't suffer my verbosity and embeds? (I really need to learn how to start my own wiki.) |

Before he was tossed, we recently had a guy here who felt the need to school us all with the latest "news" by posting huge numbers of links to various stories that were, more often than not, fantasies. I think many people just skipped over them because they were a kind of unfocussed laundry list that he felt we all needed to be aware of - thereby completely obfuscating any real meaning or desire for discussion here - except to complain about how inane his lists were. So, if you are here to entertain yourself, then go right ahead with your abundant "verbosity," but if you'd like to actually become part of a community of discussion (instead of treating it like a constant mental dumping ground), then you may want to rethink your intentions.

I think I'm participating at least somewhat. "treating it like a constant mental dumping ground"? I make a list of videos with somewhat esoteric criteria, though most of the videos are quite listenable; I refer to a site I've spent at least several 10x as much time than I have here; and it's less than 72 hours since I've joined this site and just getting used to it. You somewhat make it sound like I'm some global warming denier who's ****ting bogus stuff all over the place. Btw, can you give me a few links to this guy's threads or posts so I can see how similar/different they are to mine? |

He was an anti-vaxxer who thought Hitler was a pawn of the Zionists so you're at least ahead of that curb.
