- pyb 7y agoHe probably marvels (so do I) at the ability of some commenters on here to write walls of text. I presume that these reach only a very narrow audience. I wonder how many people actually, properly read those long comments.
- ryanmercer 7y agoNot verbose: "The guy uses lots of words to sound smart" Verbose: "In an egregious attempt to elevate his self-worth, he injects his exchanges with an innumerable avalanche of superfluous idioms and turns of phrase to explain what otherwise would be simple statements capable of understanding by even groundlings, who for the most part are capable of nothing but inexplicable dumb-shows and noise."
- Carpetsmoker 7y agoOh yeah, sometimes people confuse length with ... all sorts of things. Actually, I used to think that in order for a weblog post to be worth it, it has to be "of substance", and thus "of length". Clearly those are not the same, but luckily I have corrected my thinking in this regard :-)
