Boycott The Word Walls!

[Bonzi]

I am campaigning to ban WORD WALLS! Any OP's over 2 paragraphs, just ignore it!
Also, any topics longer than 12 words... too much!

ADHD acting up, is it?

I've always been fond of the acronym K.I.S.S.

Keep
It
Simple
Stupid

Generally, anything over 2 paragraphs, I just paste a link,

or a picture that says a thousand words.

(Unfortunately, there are some on the board that can't read a picture)

A mixed blessing it would be. There are certainly word wallists who take a back seat to no one in torrents of tryingly tautalogical trivia (not to mention litanies of laughably languid alliteration).

But OTOH there are surely topics that require deep context, such as the historical. We don't want to reduce these deep historical/philosophical issues to TV-sized sound bites. There is no one-size-fits-all; it depends on the topic. It would act to stifle discourse.

What we could do is have the site offer another icon along with the present "thanks" "Agree" "Informative" and "funny". It could be a little Nash Rambler zipping around indicating the content is a rambling jalopy without a destination.

Well I guess I just don't have the time.
I like a hit and run.... if you get my drift...

It's Agnew's fault.

You had better REALLY catch my attention by the end of the 2nd paragraph or I'm not reading any more.

I find that making a valid point has the same effect.
