If you hit a point in the writing where you say, "the point is" or "long story short" and the scroll indicator is lookin' mighty small, block select everything

If you hit a point in the writing where you say, "the point is" or "long story short" and the scroll indicator is lookin' mighty small, block select everything above and put it into another text editor in case you want to cherry pick a few good bits and just start over. If you start any sentence to defend yourself with, "It was hard to write, it should be" you the problem.
