To get annoyed with posters saying "what X said"

[PickledInAJar]

It means I have to scroll back up to find out what poster 'x' actually had to say. It seems lazy to bother to post and then post absolutely nothing!

Can you tell I'm too lazy to scroll back up to re-read what 'x' actually DID say?

Does anyone else not want to bother to backtrack to read that, or is it just me?

Hmmm

I used to long for a rubber stamp that one could boink onto the screen that read 'what Hec said'

But she's MIA

What doughnut said.

absence of 'like' button

Sometimes you get to a thread and everything that has to be said has been said. There's no point typing out all the same stuff again.

What, now. Hecate's MIA?

Not seen her around for YONKS

What CrazyOldBagLady said. Up there ^^^

That ^

What the OP said.

Haha - should've known is get everyone saying "what x said"

Silly ole me!

But really, do you all scroll up to find 'x' and read the post before continuing?

I would take it as a massive compliment, if it happened to me.

It doesn't happen to me.

You don't have to scroll up, it's just a thumb's up for the person wot wrote it.

^What fluffyclouds said

I agree with what I said.

What Littlefluffyclouds said.

There you go, just for you Ps it doesn't happen to me much either.

What puntasticusername said. PS puntasticusername I really like your user name

What JillySuper said Ps I love your books

It depends, can be annoying but usually if you've RTFT then you know what x said.

notso I always RTFT before posting but don't remember what poster said what so would need to scroll back

I also really don't like it when someone concludes a tale with 'reader I ......'. I don't know why so many people put that.

Purple assuming your tongue is not in your cheek see www.gradesaver.com/jane-eyre/q-and-a/reader-i-married-him-91199/ for an explanation.

It works the same when posters reply to someone too.

No, x, if I did that then blah, blah

Then scroll, scroll, scroll. . . If she did what?

Argh sorry www.gradesaver.com/jane-eyre/q-and-a/reader-i-married-him-91199/

Actually I do kind of agree. I always RTFT but sometimes, when they are really long I can't remember who has said what and then I have to go back to try and find it if I can be arsed.

Hec is still at times amongst us. You are all probably still agreeing with her .....and pissing the op of doing so

Sometimes though, someone has said exactly what you wanted to say. If it's only a few posts before mine I will say 'What x said' but not if it's up a long way - then I'll cut & paste it :)

Sorry you don't like it, life's full of little irritations
