Did you seriously load 22kb of Google Analytics because you weren't strong enough to truly uphold your ideals? You piece of shit. (to prevent confusion: this is a parody of the site MBlume linked)

Seriously, try loading the page with NoScript, and you get nothing. Apparently, it needed nearly a megabyte of JavaScript (somehow managing to make Firefox unresponsive for a several seconds on every page load) to asynchronously load a 600 word plain text article. Not the author's fault (apart from choosing to use Blogger), but wow, how do you fuck web design up that badly? It's just a blog, a few paragraphs and links to more articles, it doesn't need to be an entire fucking web app complete with 5 other useless ways to view a list of summaries (Pinterest is big right now, people love grids, right? Here, let me smack you in the face with this stupid zooming JQuery effect).

I can't help wondering if back buttons should work differently. If you are here on this page as a result of a quick, automatic redirect and you hit "back", don't go back to the page that sent you here; skip over it to the most recent page that didn't automatically fling you forward.

  Depending on the type of redirect, that is how it works.

Hi. I wrote this post and I agree with you about this particular annoyance (and apparently so do a lot of other people). Blogger themes are limited and while I can customize it I think a better solution is to move to another blogging platform.

Is this like the first time you've read a Blogger blog in years? Google mandated the Javascript nonsense quite some time ago.

 Thank you very much. Your script does the trick. I was able to read the blog without enabling JavaScript for that site.

 You're most welcome. What OS are you using?
