Or at least only OP's comments, or the last few comments before they post?
A few examples...
did OP ever come back?(not the sarcastic ones)
How does everyone know x?(x having been revealed pages ago)
Massive reveal during the course of the thread(normally due to astute questioning from pps)that shows OP is in no way unreasonable, followed by YABVVVVU type posts based only on the first post.
Have you tried x,y,z? The same suggestions that have already been mentioned by at least 10 posters or OP said she tried during the course of the thread.
Reverse threads.

I only tend to read the OP's posts & might scan the rest.

TBH, I'm not interested in seeing what advice people give, I'm more interested in watching the destruction of the OP's world post by post......

Like 99% of people on here I'm only interested in the train wrecks & seeing people worse off than me - I give no shits about what the other spectators think, any more than I would at a tennis match... Wink

Ahhh we're on page 4. Essential, not to be missed fact coming up...

It would take about 500 bananas to kill a person.

OP posts:

Or one banana with a gun.

Guns don't kill people, rabbits do...

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 30/12/2017 10:11

Mega drip feed there OP

So this is really a thread about homicidal gun toting bananas (or rabbits)Hmm

RebelRogue · 30/12/2017 12:52

@ChazsBrilliantAttitude well I didn't think it was relevant to put in my OP as I need advice on that specific situation and not the massive yellow backstory.

I saw a thread this morning where the OP was complaining about MIL and Aunt inviting themselves. In the OP, she said it was her DH who took the calls. Second or third reply asked "Who takes the calls?".
Angry

There's as much vitamin C in an ounce of narwhal skin as in an ounce of orange. If we're doing mega important facts.

RebelRogue · 30/12/2017 16:36

Narwhals always look made up.
I'm very suspicious of them... despite their vitamin C content.

I don't get why people leave the default number of posts per page as whatever it is (very small) then moan 'but there are 5 pages of posts!'

Change your settings to 100 posts per page, make sure you read the OP's posts IN GREEN and click 'watch this thread' instead of placemarking.
