      After concluding the same thing, I scrolled through the whole thing out of a sick sense of curiosity just to see how long it ended up being. IIt must have taken me 30 seconds just to use my touchpad to scroll to the bottom (including the pages of footnotes). These people are beyond parody.

        Holy fuck I was reading it for a while thinking “this is a really long post that I’m wasting my time and sanity reading and it’s really getting unnecessary how long it is” only to look and see I was like 1/10th of the way through.

            That doesn’t shock me. LWers are exactly the type to spend the entirety of their free time for a day interacting with a single blog post
