It seems that we are transitioning from the circle jerky era of this board to one where sentences are used for description when one word would suffice.

Brevity be the soul of wit, my fellow posters. It is contrary to what many think but an economy of words presents the appearance of intelligence and wins more support for your insane positions.

The line you reference from Hamlet is delivered by Polonius, a fool. :wink:

I used to read them all. Now I'll either ignore them or read the first few and the last 2 sentences.

And unlike SHARK, Sini seems like he would be self aware enough to cut it down, but at this point I guess he's like "fuck it, it's my thing".

i post because i have something to say, not because i'm seeking approval from a bunch of people who live out their yenta fantasies vicariously through the board.

hey everyone, what's your all-time-favorite walkmanr5 post? exactly, i can't remember anything poignant he's ever said, but hey whenever he skips over my posts i'm sure he thinks "dammit, i'm better than that loser" so if i can help someone reclaim a little self-esteem that the wife or the life has stomped out of them, welp hey disregard the first sentence i'm really here >FOR YOU<
